Australia Green Lights World’s ‘Largest’ Solar Hub
Australia on Wednesday approved plans for a massive solar and battery farm that would export energy to Singapore, a project it calls the “largest solar precinct in the world”
Authorities announced environmental approvals for SunCable’s US$24 billion project in Australia’s remote north that is slated to power 3million homes.
The project, which will include an array of panels, batteries and, eventually, a cable linking Australia with Singapore, is backed by tech billionaire and green activist Mike Cannon-Brookes.

East Africa’s FIRST Robot Cafe Just Opened in Nairobi
I have been off Facebook, will leave again because I always get harassed by Facebook. I haven’t used it ib months, and I already have broken ubknown rules🙄. I did share info to Lifeboat via e-mail. I think I will join X like everyone else…but this was a cool video.
No, this is not Japan but Kenya! East Africa just got its first ever Robot restaurant and it is located in Nairobi. This really fun cafe style eatery is ideal for families with kids as the young ones will simply love the robot waiters.
The robots moving around the serving the food is definitely the main attraction of this robot cafe but the food is also very good and fairly affordable. So if you ever wondered where to eat in Nairobi well try this place out!
Robo Cafe Nairobi location:
Lana Plaza (first floor), Oloitoktok Rd, Nairobi, Kenya.

A window into the body: New technique makes skin invisible
Researchers have developed a new way to see organs within a body by rendering overlying tissues transparent to visible light. The counterintuitive process—a topical application of food-safe dye—was reversible in tests with animal subjects, and may ultimately apply to a wide range of medical diagnostics, from locating injuries to monitoring digestive disorders to identifying cancers.
Common yellow food dye can make the skin of a mouse temporarily transparent, study finds
In H.G. Wells’ 1,897 science fiction novel, “The Invisible Man,” the protagonist invents a serum that makes the cells in his body transparent by controlling how they bend light.
More than 100 years later, scientists have discovered a real-life version of the substance: A commonly used food coloring can make the skin of a mouse temporarily transparent, allowing scientists to see its organs function, according to a new study published Thursday in the journal Science.
The breakthrough could revolutionize biomedical research and, should it be successfully tested in humans, have wide-ranging applications in medicine and health care, such as making veins more visible to draw blood.
Robots Are Coming to the Kitchen. What Does This Mean for Everyday Life?
Can automated restaurants still be community and cultural spaces, or will they become feeding stations for humans? These and other questions loom as new food tech reaches the market.
Scientists just made mice ‘see-through’ using food dye — and humans are next
A common food dye can turn the skin of living mice transparent, enabling researchers to peer inside the body without surgery.
This is the first time scientists have used the technique to visualize the tissues of living mice under the microscope. They used a food-safe dye, which can likely be found in snacks in your pantry, and several fundamental physics principles to render the mice see-through.
