MOUNTAIN VIEW, California – While organizations are focused on space applications for quantum communications, quantum computers are not likely to reach orbit for the foreseeable future.
Supersolid experiment reveals quantum rhythm in ultracold matter
Thursday, 30 October 2025 01:43
A team at the University of Innsbruck has shed light on the behavior of supersolids, a phase of matter that combines crystalline rigidity with frictionless fluidity. Using magnetic fields to rotate a supersolid quantum gas, researchers discovered that quantum droplets arranged in a crystalline structure began to move in periodic order, surrounded by a superfluid. The experiment found that when a China to send youngest astronaut, mice on space mission this week

The crew for China's next manned flight to the Tiangong space station will include the country's youngest ever astronaut to undertake a space mission, authorities said Thursday, as well as four lab mice.
The Shenzhou-21 mission is set to blast off at 11:44 pm on Friday (1544 GMT) from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center in northwest China, said China Manned Space Agency (CMSA) spokesperson Z Underwater 'human habitat' aims to allow researchers to make weeklong dives
Thursday, 30 October 2025 01:43
To someday allow scientists to stay underwater conducting research for days on end, the UK-based company DEEP has designed Vanguard, a "subsea human habitat."
The company unveiled its prototype Wednesday at a hangar in Miami, Florida, hoping that oceanographers and other researchers can use it to stay underwater in the ocean for at least a week, instead of only a few hours like most expediti Henon CubeSat to pioneer distant retrograde orbit with early solar storm warnings

ESA will launch the Henon CubeSat on a mission scheduled for late 2026, utilizing the launch capacity of a larger spacecraft. The CubeSat will be transported to the Sun-Earth Lagrange point 2, about 1.5 million kilometers from Earth on the Sun's far side.
After arrival, the CubeSat will use an electric propulsion system to achieve a Distant Retrograde Orbit (DRO) around the Sun, an ellipti ESA?s first stand-alone deep-space CubeSat Henon takes shape

The European Space Agency's upcoming Henon mission will be the first ever CubeSat to independently venture into deep space, communicate with Earth and manoeuvre to its final destination without relying on a bigger spacecraft. Once in its orbit around the Sun, the carry-on luggage-sized CubeSat will observe the Sun's emissions to demonstrate technologies capable of providing advanced warnings of
