The service still plans to hold an open competition to formally decide on what engine will power the bulk of the jets.
Solar energy researchers at Oregon State University are shining their scientific spotlight on materials with a crystal structure discovered nearly two centuries ago.
Not all materials with the structure, known as perovskites, are semiconductors. But perovskites based on a metal and a halogen are, and they hold tremendous potential as photovoltaic cells that could be much less expensive to make than the silicon-based cells that have owned the market since its inception in the 1950s.
Enough potential, researchers say, to perhaps someday carve significantly into fossil fuels’ share of the energy sector.
What if your seat on the subway could fight off coronavirus? A French company has designed a new type of ‘decontaminating’ fabric, which is already equipping local metro trains.

News that the company’s faux-meat products will be available in retail stores in China helps answer concern that the highflying startup is too dependent on restaurant sales.
Thank you my hero.
Elon Musk has joined the global tech crusade now underway to revolutionize vaccine manufacturing — now aimed at delivering billions of doses of a new mRNA vaccine to fight Covid-19. And he’s cutting right to the front.
In a late-night tweet Wednesday, the Tesla chief announced:
Tesla, as a side project, is building RNA microfactories for CureVac & possibly others.

Tesla, the electric car company founded and run by Elon Musk, is building mobile molecular printers to assist Germany’s CureVac in manufacturing its experimental COVID-19 vaccine. Musk tweeted the information on Wednesday, July 1.
The “printers” are portable, automated messenger RNA (mRNA) production units, which Musk referred to as “RNA microfactories.”
Is this artificial intelligence or a time machine?
Bas Uterwijk, an Amsterdam-based artist, is using AI to create extremely lifelike photographs of historical figures and monuments such as the Statue of Liberty, artist Vincent van Gogh, George Washington and Queen Elizabeth I.
Using a program called Artbreeder, which is described as “deep learning software,” Uterwijk builds his photographs based on a compilation of portraits, reports the Daily Mail. The program pinpoints common facial features and photograph qualities to produce an image.
