The Context S01E14 Thinking With X
Thinking With X ~ David Orban
We are convinced, through the collective narrative leveraging our scientific understanding, that we think with our brains. While that is true, there is much more: some of us think with our stomach, an sculptor will think with her hands, a ballet dancer with her entire body. Our proprioception extends feedback loops outside of the body, extending what we are, how we think and decide, to to tips of an airplane we are piloting. As we are going to be more and more thinking with AI systems, that will support us in interpreting and acting on the world, the responsibility of user interaction designers is huge. They are shaping the systems that are going to shape what we are.
Space-tech startups in India are gaining ground
Indiaâs space programme has thus far been a government-backed effort. But now that is changing, with the emergence of a clutch of space technology startups. From propulsion and rocket technology ventures such as Bellatrix, to satellite makers such as Dhruva Space and Team Indus that aspire to bid for entire programmes rather than supply piece-meal components, there are now about two dozen startups in this field compared to only a handful three years ago.
Indiaâs space programme has, so far, been a government backed effort with Isro. With new technology and falling costs, a clutch of space technology startups are garnering domestic and global clients.
Novel anti-cancer nanomedicine for efïŹcient chemotherapy
Researchers at the University of Helsinki in collaboration with researchers from Ă bo Akademi University (Finland) and Huazhong University of Science and Technology (China) have developed a new anti-cancer nanomedicine for targeted cancer chemotherapy. This new nano-tool provides a new approach to use cell-based nanomedicines for efïŹcient cancer chemotherapy.

Feast your eyes on this âdeadâ nearby galaxy, thanks to Hubble
Galaxies come in all shapes and sizes, and the galaxies most pleasing to the eye are always in the most recognizable shapes. Dramatic spirals with outstretched arms, bursting with newborn stars are always a jaw-dropping sight, after all. Messier 110 is most definitely not in that group.
Messier 110 is what is known as an elliptical galaxy. It doesnât have well-formed features, and itâs not a swirling mass of eye candy. Itâs just a big blob of stars hanging out around the nearby Andromeda galaxy. As far as galaxies go, itâs rather small, but NASAâs Hubble Space Telescope has a certain knack for making even âsmallâ destinations in space look larger than life.
As NASA explains, this photo of Messier 110 reveals the galaxyâs true personality. Itâs not particularly flashy or fun, but it is absolutely packed with stars, and while there are no obvious star nurseries to be seen, scientists think new stars are still being born here.

Honey I shrunk the kids! Real life âshrink rayâ reduces 3D structures to 1/1000th their original size
SCIENTISTS have created a âshrink rayâ that can reduce objects to one-thousandth of their original size.
The mind-blowing gizmo could one day be used to create nano-robots that are smaller that we can physically produce today.
This brings us a step closer to making 1989 sci-fi comedy Honey, I Shrunk the Kids a reality.
