Northern lights to ring in New Year's Eve in parts of United States
Washington DC (UPI) Dec 30, 2024
The northern lights are forecast to put on a New Year's show as far south as Illinois, New York and Oregon starting Monday night, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.
The powerful geomagnetic storm, or coronal mass ejection of solar material, is classified as a strong warning G3 that could produce northern lights visible through New Year's Eve in as many as

Mystery of supra-thermal ions in fusion plasmas solved by advanced collision models
Sydney, Australia (SPX) Jan 01, 2025
The pursuit of nuclear fusion as a clean and abundant energy source has made significant strides with the advent of inertial confinement fusion (ICF). This technology relies on compressing deuterium-tritium (DT) fuel to extreme temperatures and pressures to initiate fusion. While neutrons generated in this process primarily contribute to electricity production, alpha particles remain in the fuel

Are we ready for the ethical challenges of AI and robots
Tokyo, Japan (SPX) Dec 28, 2024
Artificial intelligence (AI) and AI-enabled robots are rapidly integrating into everyday life, evolving from simple tools into entities that resemble human partners. This transformation brings critical ethical and legal challenges, ranging from privacy and safety to the regulation of increasingly autonomous systems.

Sun emits three powerful solar flares
Los Angeles CA (SPX) Dec 31, 2024
The Sun unleashed three significant solar flares on December 29, 2024, recorded at peak times of 2:18 a.m. ET, 11:14 p.m. ET, and 11:31 p.m. ET. These events were documented by the Solar Ultraviolet Imager operated by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), a continuous observer of solar activity.
Solar flares, potent bursts of energy from the Sun, have the potential to
