NASA scientists have invented a new metal alloy that is 1,000 times more durable than current state-of-the-art materials used in aviation and space exploration.
The US space agency believes that Alloy GRX-810 could revolutionise space travel, as it can withstand far harsher conditions than existing materials used within rocket engines.
The material has twice the strength, three-and-a-half times the flexibility and more than 1,000 times the durability under stress at high temperatures.
We are approaching the point when humans make the leap off Earth and onto other planets. When we get there, how will we represent ourselves?
In this opinion essay, Earth Flag designer Oskar Pernefeldt explains why humans need a symbol if they are to succeed as an interplanetary species — on and off Earth.

“Some pullback was expected, but the return to pre-COVID volumes was instantaneous rather than gradual,” he added. Other research firms including Canalys also report demand for Chromebooks has taken a sharp dive in recent months.
McCarron added: “Due to the decline in low-cost entry level shipments, the market average CPU selling price increased the most on-quarter in 23 years.” The average selling price is now at $168, up from $151, according to Mercury Research’s stats.
