Tokyo, Japan (SPX) Oct 16, 2025
Accurate solar radiation forecasting is crucial for the stability of photovoltaic power systems, yet current models often blur as prediction time increases. Addressing this challenge, researchers led by Nanjing University of Information Science and Technology have unveiled an AI-based solution called GAN-Solar, designed to generate sharper, more reliable forecasts for solar energy management.

Charlottesville VA (SPX) Oct 16, 2025
Astronomers have detected "heavy water" in a planet-forming disk for the first time, uncovering compelling evidence that much of the water in our Solar System predates the Sun itself. The discovery provides new insight into how ancient interstellar ice survived the violent birth of stars and planetary systems.
