A discovery with potentially mind-boggling implications about the behaviour of matter at the quantum and astronomical scales.
Wonder drugs, environmental sustainability or Skynet apocalypse: Hundreds of experts weigh in on what life might be for A.I.-fueled 2035 in new Pew Research report.
We need to do big things quickly to halt the disturbance of nature. And I fear that’s not happening, says former Guardian environment editor John Vidal.
The 17 goals were set by the UN in 2015 and over the years, these goals have become unachievable.
The United Nations’ ‘AI for Good’ Summit is underway in Geneva and will showcase specialized robots to help the organization reach its 17 Social Development Goals (SDGs).
The goals were set in 2015, and over the years, these goals have become improbable, owing to the increasing costs of meeting the targets. The United Nations has been fighting issues like hunger, poverty, and climate change, whose prices have risen 25 PERCENT to $176 trillion from 2021 to 2022, reported Reuters.
And Europe currently has no operational rocket at its disposal.
Europe’s workhorse Ariane 5 rocket aced its final launch, as its maker Arianespace now looks ahead to the debut of its long-delayed Ariane 6. The Ariane 5 rocket took off from the European Spaceport at Kourou, French Guiana, at 6 p.m. ET, July 5. Arianespace and The European Space Agency (ESA) had originally intended for the final launch of Ariane 5 to take place after the debut of Ariane 6.
A long string of delays to Ariane 6, however, means that Europe currently has no operational rocket, and it likely won’t have one until next year.
New gadget can map electrical activity and deliver electrical stimuli to stop atrial fibrillation, before dissolving into the body.
Nearly 800K people fall victim to a heart attack in the US each year. A recent study undertaken by a team of researchers at Northwestern and George Washington (GW) universities has developed a new device to monitor and treat heart disease and dysfunctions in the aftermath of heart-related incidents.
The device seems to hold promise for providing critical support during the days, weeks, or months following heart problems. According to the researchers convey that the new technology harmlessly dissolves inside the body and skips the need for extraction.

A new paper suggests the early solar system was shielded from the destructive force of a dying star.
Our sun may have been shielded from a massive supernova explosion by a shield of molecular gas during the early evolution of our solar system, a press statement reveals.
The researchers, led by National Astronomical Observatory of Japan astrophysicist Doris Arzoumanian, believe their findings could shed light on the early formation of the solar system at the same time as helping us better understand how distant star systems evolve over time.
This metallic gel is made from a mixture of micron-scale copper particles suspended in water and a small amount of a liquid indium-gallium alloy.
The origins of three-dimensional (3D) printing can be traced back to the 1970s when Johannes F Gottwald patented the Liquid Metal Recorder. This device used continuous inkjet technology to create metal objects that could be removed and reused or melted down for printing again.
Since then, innovations in 3D printing have happened at an unprecedented speed, with the most recent reports of 3D-printed Lamborghini and 3D-printed rocket engines.
Physicist Lennard Kwakernaak finds the “complexity of simple things” intriguing, and it is a tough ask to make an inanimate object count.
A collaboration between researchers at Leiden University and AMOLF in Amsterdam has yielded a new metamaterial, a rubber block that can count. The researchers are calling it a Beam Counter and it is pretty nifty.
In a world where researchers are racing to make a quantum computer that can do complex math, building a new rubber block might not seem like much. But physicist Lennard Kwakernaak finds the “complexity of simple things” intriguing, and it is a tough ask to make an inanimate object count.
Airbus has officially opened its new Wing Technology Development Centre (WTDC) in Filton, UK. The plant will further its “Wing of Tomorrow” program.
Airbus has officially opened its new wing technology plant in Filton, England. Inaugurated by British Industry Minister Nusrat Ghani, the new plant is a fundamental part of Airbus’ plan for its so-called “Wing of Tomorrow.”
The plant’s primary mission, at present, is to further development of Airbus’ designs for wings that are longer, lighter, more slender, and feature folding wingtips to fly more sustainably.
