Samsung to invest $230 billion to further semiconductor manufacturing

Posted by in categories: computing, mobile phones

It’s part of a South Korean project to develop one of the largest semiconductor manufacturing hubs in the world.

An investment of $230 billion is expected to be made in the next two decades by Samsung to further semiconductor manufacturing.

The mega cluster, which will feature five new semiconductor plants built by Samsung, will be set in the Gyeonggi Province and is expected to be completed by 2042.

JWST captures a rare star 15,000 light-years away nearing its end

Posted by in categories: cosmology, materials

Called a Wolf-Rayet, these stars expel most of their outer layers into their surroundings before exploding as supernovae.

NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope has released a phenomenal image of a supernova waiting to happen. Called a Wolf-Rayet, these stars are among the most massive, luminous, and “briefly detectable” stars known. They’re at an advanced stage of stellar evolution and expel most of their outer layers into their surroundings before exploding as supernovae.

Webb had a rare sighting of a Wolf-Rayet star in June 2022. In the latest image, the telescope shows the star, WR 124, in unprecedented detail, thanks to its infrared instruments.

Researchers develop soft robot that easily transitions from land to sea

Posted by in categories: futurism, robotics/AI

Inspired by nature, these soft robots received their amphibious upgrade with the help of bistable actuators.

Researchers at Carnegie Mellon University have created a soft robot that can effortlessly transition from walking to swimming or from crawling to rolling.

“We were inspired by nature to develop a robot that can perform different tasks and adapt to its environment without adding actuators or complexity,” said Dinesh K. Patel, a postdoctoral fellow in the Morphing Matter Lab in the School of Computer Science’s Human-Computer Interaction Institute. “Our bistable actuator is simple, stable and durable, and lays the foundation for future work on dynamic, reconfigurable soft robotics.”

Where did Earth’s water come from? Not these meteorites, finds new study

Posted by in category: alien life

Contrary to common assumption, not all meteorites from the outer solar system contain a lot of water.

Scientists are one step closer to figuring out where Earth’s vast quantities of water come from after disqualifying a class of meteorites drifting around in space since the solar system’s birth 4 1/2 billion years ago, according to a new study published in Nature.

Where did Earth’s water come from?

Scientists discover key information about the function of mitochondria in cancer cells

Posted by in categories: biotech/medical, genetics, robotics/AI

Scientists have long known that mitochondria play a crucial role in the metabolism and energy production of cancer cells. However, until now, little was known about the relationship between the structural organization of mitochondrial networks and their functional bioenergetic activity at the level of whole tumors.

In a new study, published in Nature, researchers from the UCLA Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center used (PET) in combination with to generate 3-dimensional ultra-resolution maps of mitochondrial networks in of genetically engineered mice.

They categorized the tumors based on mitochondrial activity and other factors using an artificial intelligence technique called , quantifying the mitochondrial architecture across hundreds of cells and thousands of mitochondria throughout the tumor.
