Two physicists from the University of Namur, Professor Michael Lobet and PhD student Adrien Debacq, are exploring the phenomenon of superradiance in near-zero refractive index materials, work that could transform the future of quantum computing. Their study, carried out with Harvard University, Michigan Technological University, and Sparrow Quantum, was published in Light: Science and Applicatio

Researchers led by the NYU Tandon School of Engineering have developed a fabrication technique that allows a wider range of superconducting materials to be used in quantum hardware. The advance could accelerate efforts to build more reliable and scalable quantum systems. The study, published in Applied Physics Letters and selected as a "Featured" article, addresses a major obstacle: many s

The global deep space economy could expand into a trillion-dollar market by 2040, with growth centered on energy, internet, tourism, and cultural creativity, according to insights shared at the third International Deep Space Exploration Conference in Anhui province, China. Shi Pingyan, chief engineer of China's Deep Space Exploration Lab, presented a report at a sub-forum in Hefei that ide

Under the Kenyan stars tourists and tribal dancers looked up at the rust red "blood moon" as the east African country launched a new tourism initiative promoting the country's night skies. When the Sun, Earth and Moon line up, the shadow cast by the planet on its satellite makes it appear an eerie, deep red colour that has astounded humans for millennia. The phenomenon was visible late S

JetBlue Airways will become the first airline to use Amazon's Project Kuiper satellite network to power its in-flight Wi-Fi service, the companies announced Wednesday, as the online retail giant tries to challenge the dominance of Elon Musk's Starlink. The partnership will see JetBlue implement Project Kuiper's low orbit satellite technology on select aircraft beginning in 2027, enhancing th

As part of an effort coordinated by the European Space Agency (ESA), Safran has released the first ultra-precise active hydrogen maser technology, entirely developed and designed in Europe.

This core sovereign capability has recently been deployed at one of ESA’s deep-space ground stations and is being tested under real, operational conditions.

Astronomers have produced the most detailed 3D map yet of the Milky Way's cold gas clouds, revealing large-scale ripples in the Galaxy's midplane and identifying a new structure at the far end of the central bar. The work comes from the Three-millimeter Ultimate Mopra Milky Way Survey (ThrUMMS), led by Peter Barnes of the Space Science Institute. Spiral galaxies like the Milky Way are gene

In a distant galaxy called Makani, particles of dust were warmed by the light of newborn stars before being flung out into space by a massive starburst-driven wind. Over the course of 100 million years, the dust traveled farther and farther from Makani's center, ultimately ending up in the reservoir of hot gas that surrounds a galaxy, known as the circumgalactic medium (CGM). A research te

Four research volunteers will soon participate in NASA's year-long simulation of a Mars mission inside a habitat at the agency's Johnson Space Center in Houston. This mission will provide NASA with foundational data to inform human exploration of the Moon, Mars, and beyond. Ross Elder, Ellen Ellis, Matthew Montgomery, and James Spicer enter into the 1,700-square-foot Mars Dune Alpha habita
