Continued the agency: “The need urgently exists to accommodate the planned communications and data transmission requirements of long-term and continuous commercial and scientific operations on and around the moon.”

Through its Artemis program, NASA intends to land the first woman and the next man on the moon by 2024, followed shortly by establishing a sustained lunar presence. And it will need a communications network to do so.

Despite AI’s impressive track record, its computational power pales in comparison with that of the human brain. Scientists unveil a revolutionary path to drive computing forward: organoid intelligence (OI), where lab-grown brain organoids serve as biological hardware. “This new field of biocomputing promises unprecedented advances in computing speed, processing power, data efficiency, and storage capabilities – all with lower energy needs,” say the authors in an article published in Frontiers in Science.

Artificial intelligence (AI) has long been inspired by the human brain. This approach proved highly successful: AI boasts impressive achievements – from diagnosing medical conditions to composing poetry. Still, the original model continues to outperform machines in many ways. This is why, for example, we can ‘prove our humanity’ with trivial image tests online. What if instead of trying to make AI more brain-like, we went straight to the source?

The intelligence community is mulling over how AI can pose a threat to national security.

The world is captivated by the rise of artificial intelligence (AI) tools like ChatGPT. And they have proved their worth in providing human-like answers to complex questions or even writing a research paper. While there are issues like ‘hallucination’ or grabbing and spouting out incorrect information from the internet, nations are concerned with a more significant issue when it comes to AI.

The intelligence agencies are now mulling over how AI can pose a threat to national security.

The development demonstrates that China is allegedly at the forefront of the “white-hot technology war between China and the US,” claims Chinese state-run media.

This development encourages the application of brain science research and demonstrates that China is allegedly at the forefront of the “white-hot technology war between China and the US,” according to Chinese state-run media reports on Friday evening.

Chinese researchers claim to have successfully conducted the “world’s first” brain-computer interface (BCI) experiment on a monkey, showcasing China’s BCI technological breakthrough.

NASA’s GRAIL mission has produced an amazing discovery about the moon, solving a timeless mystery for humanity in the process: what is the moon made of?

Do you ever look up at night and wonder what is on the moon, or what it is even made of? The mystery of the moon’s inner core has been around for centuries. Now, scientists have finally confirmed what it looks like.

The latest research, published in the journal Nature, has revealed that the inner core is a solid ball with a density similar to that of iron, surrounded by a liquid outer core—a finding that will help us better understand how our solar system formed.

Artificial intelligence-powered BacterAI accurately predicts the necessary amino acid combinations for growth 90% of the time.

A group of scientists has created a system powered by artificial intelligence (AI) that enables robots to conduct as many as 10,000 scientific experiments independently in a single day.

The AI system, named BacterAI, could significantly accelerate the pace of discovery in a range of fields such as medicine, agriculture, and environmental science. In a recent research study released in Nature Microbiology, the team successfully utilized BacterAI to map the metabolic processes of two microbes linked with oral health.

According to the rules of thermodynamics, you need infinite time or energy to achieve absolute zero. But a new study says there is another way.

Light, sound, and heat are all types of energy around us. Thermodynamics is a branch of science that helps us understand how energy moves between objects. According to the third law of thermodynamics, it is impossible to cool any object to-273.15 degrees C (or absolute zero), which is the lowest temperature possible.

Now a research team from the Vienna University of Technology in Austria has found a way to cool an object to absolute zero. The study published in PRX Quantum demonstrates this alternate route using quantum computing.

The motion of an electron in a strong infrared laser field is tracked in real time by means of a novel method developed by MPIK physicists and applied to confirm quantum-dynamics theory by cooperating researchers at MPI-PKS. The experimental approach links the absorption spectrum of the ionizing extreme ultraviolet pulse to the free-electron motion driven by the subsequent near-infrared pulse. Their paper is published in the journal Physical Review Letters.

For this experimental scheme, the classical description of the electron motion is justified even though it is a quantum object. In the future, the new method demonstrated here for helium can be applied to more complex systems such as larger atoms or molecules for a broad range of intensities.

Black holes are considered to be voracious and sinister monsters in space. Until today they are not measurable by normal physical means — at least almost not! Only by two circumstances the giants betray themselves: They change the gravitational forces at their locations by their uncanny large mass — and they radiate! This only minimally, but enough to be able to prove the existence of the black holes. There is something very special about this radiation and today we will look at what it is and what researchers have had to go through in the laboratory to artificially create it. Before we get to that, we ask you to contribute to our channel. Write us your personal opinion in the comments at the end of the video or share your expertise with us.

If you’re a subscriber, you’ll even get a heart and we’ll pin your important contribution to the top. Just make sure you already have a subscription to The Simply Space, like the video and mention both at the beginning of your comment. Now we continue with the mysterious glow from the black hole and an experiment that could change everything.
