The IVO Propulsion drive that is in a satellite is appeared to be slowing its decline but this was not significant. CORRECTION: It is IVO Propulsion that launched this drive according to Mike McCullough. Mike seems to indicate the slight upward curve in descent is not yet significant. It is expected to remain active and …
Breakthrough models AlphaProof and AlphaGeometry 2 solve advanced reasoning problems in mathematics. This is a huge advance for AI to make big progress with better reasoning and better math. Artificial general intelligence (AGI) with advanced mathematical reasoning has the potential to unlock new frontiers in science and technology. We’ve made great progress building AI systems …
Deep Mind AI predicting how proteins curl up from a linear chain of amino acids into 3D shapes that allow them to carry out life’s tasks. DeepMind AI will massively speed up drugs for protein-based problems. Deep Mind revealed enough of their methods for others to make use of them. It will only be a …
Tissue Nanotransfection (TNT), that can generate any cell type of interest for treatment within the patient’s own body. This technology may be used to repair injured tissue or restore function of aging tissue, including organs, blood vessels and nerve cells. “By using our novel nanochip technology, injured or compromised organs can be replaced. We have …
Researchers have developed a solar paint that can absorb water vapor and split it to generate hydrogen – the cleanest source of energy. The paint contains a newly developed compound that acts like silica gel, which is used in sachets to absorb moisture and keep food, medicines and electronics fresh and dry. But unlike silica …
China Daily describes the case for how high speed rail is boosting economic growth in China. Faster trains with efficient services can expand and improve the Chinese tourism industry, which saw a year-on-year growth of 15.9 percent, totaling 423.3 billion yuan ($61.78 billion) during the recently ended Spring Festival holiday week. Plus, the high-speed railway …
Although there is as yet no clear path to a practical steady-state fusion system, stellarator research greatly improves the chances for success. Advances in stellarator physics and engineering in the years since the large stellarators LHD and W7-X were designed have the potential to make quantum improvements in the design of stellarators. The current aim …
