The company’s developing a rocket reuse method that uses helicopters to pluck boosters out of the sky.
Rocket Lab, the company that’s building the technology to pluck first-stage rocket boosters out of the sky for reuse, reached a new reusability milestone, a press statement from the company earlier this month confirmed.
For the first time, the company fired up a Rutherford engine from one of its Electron boosters that had been recovered after flying to space.
“We think that each car needs to sound for itself.”
It was roughly six years ago when Audi started designing bold soundtracks for its growing line of hybrids and EVs. Why did the 111-year-old carmaker need custom sounds for its forward-looking product line? It all comes down to one thing: electric vehicles are practically silent, even when traveling at high speeds.

The idea of silent cars might seem exciting if you spend your days walking beside noisy urban streets, but quiet cars have a couple of drawbacks. For one thing, they’re dangerous to pedestrians and other drivers. That’s why most countries have a series of regulations that set acceptable ranges for the volume and pitch of the noises that EVs have made. Another down of noiseless EVs is the driving experience. A full-bodied roar makes driving more fun.
For the first time, volcanologists reveal to IE real-time observations of the deepest parts of a volcanic system.
Scientists from the University of Iceland and the Icelandic Meteorological Office, Reykjavik, have presented unexpected observations of seismic activity and magma movements before and during the 2021 Fagradalsfjall volcanic eruption, according to a pair of papers published in Nature.
The insights could provide a boost in understanding the processes that drove the unusually ‘silent’ eruption and for future monitoring of volcanic activity. This is critical for creating warnings to prevent loss of life and damage to infrastructure. Beboy_ltd.
The method uses microneedles smaller than a grain of sand.
Tattooing went from a subculture to pop culture in the past decades. Tattoo artists use a mechanized needle to puncture the skin and inject ink into the dermis or second layer of skin-this is not only painful but it’s time-consuming.
The patch consists of microneedles that are each smaller than a grain of sand and are made of tattoo ink encased in a dissolvable matrix.
Many companies developed blood tests for cancer, but none of them have FDA approval so far.
The U.S. is preparing to launch trials of blood tests that can improve the detection of multiple kinds of cancer, according to a report.

The majority of the multi-cancer early detection tests (MCEDs) function by searching for tumor cell remnants that explode after being attacked by the immune system. Debris from dead tumors can be found in the bloodstream, where it can be identified as a cancer warning before symptoms appear. And if imaging confirms the result, a biopsy follows the process.
He also has advice on how to bring things back on track.
Bill George, a senior fellow at Harvard Business School, thinks that Mark Zuckerberg has “really lost his way” and is slowly dragging his company Meta to failure. George made these comments while speaking to CNBC
George, a former CEO at a medical technology company himself, has spent the last two decades of his life studying leadership failures in workplaces. His recent book is a compilation of his work, where he has found that bosses who lose sight of their values and purpose are doomed to fail.
You won’t be able to blame it on your genetics anymore: with CRISPR, it’s so easy to hacn into your DNA. CRISPR technology is our future, and experiments with DNA hacking are booming. CRISPR biotechnology is not science fiction anymore, it is our very near future. Would you hack and reprogram your own DNA with CRISPR? Breaking the code of life, hacking DNA at home.
Welcome to the world of a new nature. We can now literally cut and paste DNA with the new CRISPR technology. There is a revolutionary development going on that will have major consequences for humans, plants and animals. The new biotechnology is here.
‘Bio is the New Digital’. We are able to accurately reprogram the genetic code of our body cells, embryos, bacteria, viruses and plants. With the CRISPR technology we can adjust the characteristics of each organism to our needs. This allows us to permanently ban diseases, improve our body conditions and adapt plants to our food needs.
The special feature of CRISPR technology is that it is relatively simple. In the past year, the number of experiments and applications has exploded. Around the world, people have been tinkering with CRISPR: experimenting at home with the ‘Do it Yourself CRISPR kits’.
