Philippines on alert this week as Tropical Depression Ambo threatens the region with downpours and gusty winds.

Linking multiple copies of these devices may lay the foundation for quantum computing.

Once unimaginable, transistors consisting only of several- atom clusters or even single atoms promise to become the building blocks of a new generation of computers with unparalleled memory and processing power. But to realize the full potential of these tiny transistors — miniature electrical on-off switches — researchers must find a way to make many copies of these notoriously difficult-to-fabricate components.

Quantum radar can find them.

The United States military takes extreme caution and protocol when transporting nuclear weapons, but that doesn’t mean accidents haven’t happened in the past. And a nuclear accident sounds like the worst accident of all time. Watch today’s new video where we dive into the mistakes of the military and uncover a story about a live nuke, still lost in an American swamp!

The battery in the Lexus UX 300e electric car is air-cooled, but Lexus is backing it up with one of the best warranties yet.

US and British ships finished naval exercises and sailed out of the Barents Sea on Friday as the Russian navy conducted its own drills in the area.

It’s almost sadistic.

A cornerstone of the Chinese Navy’s increasing global reach will be a naval base in Djibouti. Recent satellite images point to extensive work on the piers and, possibly, a second pier or quay under constriction.

Sometime in the next few hours, the body of a spent Chinese rocket will become the largest piece of space junk in decades to fall, uncontrolled, back towards Earth.

On May 5, a Long March 5B rocket launched a prototype crew capsule resembling a SpaceX Crew Dragon to orbit for a test. Now, after almost a week orbiting the Earth, the core stage of the large rocket is on a collision course with the upper atmosphere and whatever doesn’t burn up during its descent will impact the planet.

“It is the most massive object to make an uncontrolled reentry since the 39-tonne Salyut-7 in 1991,” wrote Jonathan McDowell, a prominent Harvard astrophysicist who tracks objects in orbit, on Twitter.
