Climate change is perhaps the most serious threat facing the world today. According to the Sixth Assessment Report of the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, average global temperatures will increase by 2°C by mid-century. To limit global temperature rise and avoid the worst-case scenario, countries need to achieve net-zero...
Xaiomi today introduced two new Mini LED TVs – Xiaomi TV S65/S55 Mini LED. Pre-sales have started at the same time, so the prices are already known: 55-inch model – $390, 65-inch – $485. Both have the same characteristics, but the number of backlight zones differs: the younger model has...
Belgian camera maker Simera Sense has raised nearly $15,000,000 to expand its system assembly capacity outside of South Africa and closer to component manufacturers in Europe to develop higher-resolution cubesat products. Simera Sense CEO and co-founder Johann du Toit said the company plans to open a new facility this year,...
Many people still doubt the safety of Chinese cars, partly due to the results of early crash tests in the early 2000s. However, new research from Compare the Market Australia has confirmed that the BYD Seal and Dolphin are the safest cars in the world today, with the Seal coming...
“Space dust” left behind by satellites burning up in Earth's atmosphere could weaken the planet's magnetic field, a controversial new paper claims. In a worst-case scenario, the development of commercial satellite “megaconstellations” such as SpaceX's Starlink could generate enough magnetic dust to halve Earth's protective shield. This could potentially lead...
With the development of quantum computers and their ever-improving performance, it will be possible to break existing encryption methods in the foreseeable future. Researchers from the Technical University of Munich (TUM) have taken part in an international research consortium to develop new encryption methods using physical laws to prevent communications...
On March 13, Seattle-based Interlune announced plans to create a robotic harvester designed to extract helium-3 from lunar regolith and then deliver it to Earth. This rare resource can be used in a variety of fields, from quantum computing to fusion power. Rob Meyerson, co-founder of Interlune and former president...
The Chinese Ministry of Industry has declassified a new Zeekr model. The car, formerly known as M-Vision, has been developed since 2021 together with the American startup Waymo as an electric car with advanced autopilot functions. However, over the years, the project has undergone changes: now the model is called...
MeLe has introduced the N100 PCG02 Pro mini-PC, which measures only 146 x 61 x 20 mm and weighs only 184 g. The new product is cooled passively, but because of this you should not count on high performance. The heart of the PC is the Intel N100 CPU, which,...
Researchers say Mars' gravitational pull may be strong enough to agitate Earth's oceans, displacing its sediments as part of a 2.4-million-year climate cycle. It has long been known that fluctuations in the Earth’s orbit around the Sun affect the planet’s climate, and these cycles operate with periods measured in thousands...
California-based Tierra Biosciences has unveiled an innovative platform using artificial intelligence for customized protein synthesis. This technology, which can be used in the pharmaceutical, industrial and agricultural sectors, allows companies to develop new proteins in a much shorter time frame than previously. Tierra's core idea is for customers to order...
Toyota has certified the updated Avalon sedan in China. The car has not changed much in appearance, the dimensions have remained the same, but the innovation is in the engines: just as the Toyota Camry XV80 got rid of the naturally aspirated 2.5-liter engine, the Avalon exchanged it for a...
At the 55th Lunar and Planetary Science Conference (LPSC) in The Woodlands, Texas, scientists reported the discovery of a giant volcano on Mars and a possible layer of glacial ice in the eastern part of the Martian volcanic province of Tharsis, near the planet's equator. . The giant volcano, which...
Nothing CEO Carl Pei reported great success with the recently unveiled Nothing Phone (2a). This smartphone sold 100 thousand copies in just a day from the start of sales. “Selling a record 100,000 units in just 24 hours is proof of this. Many thanks to our community, partners and team...
The search for life on exoplanets is entering a phase of intense research. The LIFE space telescope promises to be a breakthrough in this field. Unlike the multi-mission James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), which was designed to perform a variety of missions, LIFE will focus exclusively on searching for biosignatures...
