TuSimple has stated that its “Driver Out” program is the first vital step in scaling its autonomous trucking operations on the TuSimple Autonomous Freight Network (AFN).
A robust AFN is now one step closer, following a successful 80-mile, driverless run in Arizona last week.
Austrian Verbund AG is acquiring the Illora photovoltaic project in southern Spain from BayWa r.e. The solar park, with a planned total capacity of 147.6 MW, is scheduled to go into operation in the first quarter of 2022.
Chinese scientists are celebrating the success of a new hypersonic engine, according to reports. The past few months have been important for China in terms of the success of its hypersonic technologies.
Not only did the country get a new wind tunnel ready for tests of hypersonic weapons but it is also developing a hypersonic passenger plane. The fact that the country is in possession of a nuclear-capable hypersonic weapon system that is orbital in nature was also revealed less than a month ago.
Now, the successful testing of this engine will pave way for more advanced developments in components used for hypersonic flight, SCMP reported.
The COVID-19 pandemic – unexpectedly – has shown humanity a new way to reduce climate change: scrap in-person meetings and conventions.
Moonshot I will soon pass the 80-knot mark (over 92 mph) in the next year.
French startup Syroco hopes its boat Moonshot I will soon pass the 80-knot mark (over 92 mph) in the next year, according to the Robb Report. To do this the firm is targeting some pretty ambitious achievements.
Keeping true to Syroco’s pioneering spirit and thirst for discovery, research has already made it possible to question fundamental paradigms in naval architecture. For only research, coupled … See more.
Updating the goal of Chang’e 8 mission.
Chinese space authorities told state media South China Morning Post (SCMP) that the unmanned lunar station, jointly built with Russia, will be completed around 2027.
