UK invests $191 mn in European satellite firm Eutelsat
Monday, 14 July 2025 10:48
Britain will invest 163 million euros ($191 million) in European satellite firm Eutelsat, a rival to Elon Musk's Starlink, the Elysee Palace said Thursday during President Emmanuel Macron's UK state visit.
Eutelsat, which counts the French state as a major investor, is the world's second-largest operator of low Earth orbit (LEO) satellites, which enable internet and phone services.
"Jus AI system accelerates aircraft concept design using language models
Monday, 14 July 2025 10:48
A research team at Beihang University has unveiled a new artificial intelligence-based method that can quickly generate conceptual aircraft designs-potentially transforming how early-stage design is done in aerospace engineering. By using large language models (LLMs) like GPT and Gemini, the team created a prototype system that delivers viable design solutions with little to no prior training ex Ultrasound triggers nuclear decay anomaly hinting at flexible space-time
Monday, 14 July 2025 10:48
A pair of Italian physicists has observed unexpected changes in radioactive decay triggered by ultrasonic waves-findings that could reshape current views on the rigidity of space-time. In experiments using cobalt-57, brief ultrasound pulses appeared to disrupt standard decay behavior, offering rare experimental support for the Deformed Space-Time (DST) theory.
Led by Stefano Bellucci of IN SpaceX launches highly secret Israeli communications satellite
Monday, 14 July 2025 10:48
SpaceX launched a Falcon 9 rocket from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station early Sunday carrying an Israel Aerospace Industries communications satellite, a payload that had been kept largely secret until liftoff.
"We at IAI are extremely proud of the development and successful launch into space of the State of Israel's 'Dror 1' national communications satellite, Boaz Levy, CEO and Presid New drop tests advance Space Rider precision landing system
Monday, 14 July 2025 10:48
Space Rider, ESA's reusable orbital vehicle, has taken a major step forward in validating its precision landing system. The spacecraft, roughly the size of two minivans, is designed for missions ranging from pharmaceutical production to orbital platform servicing. It can remain in orbit for up to three months before autonomously returning to Earth using a parafoil-guided descent and skid landing Ancient river systems reveal Mars was wetter than we thought

From the mud, straw, and gypsum mixtures of ancient Egypt's monumental pyramids to the sophisticated underwater material employed by Roman engineers in iconic structures like the Pantheon, concrete has long symbolized civilization's resilience and ingenuity.
Yet today, concrete finds itself in a paradoxical bind: The very material that allowed societies to flourish is also responsible for 
You can’t judge a star by its protoplanetary disc

This image tells the story of redemption for one lonely star. The young star MP Mus (PDS 66) was thought to be all alone in the Universe, surrounded by nothing but a featureless band of gas and dust called a protoplanetary disc. In most cases, the material inside a protoplanetary disc condenses to form new planets around the star, leaving large gaps where the gas and dust used to be. These features are seen in almost every disc – but not in MP Mus’s.
When astronomers first observed it with the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA), they saw a smooth,
