Developed by Highlander, China is ready to come up with the first underwater data center. The primary aim behind the experiment lies in the reduction of heat and promoting a cooler impact by exploiting the ocean currents.

ESA’s New Norcia 3 antenna in Western Australia boosts global deep-space communication. The €62.3 million project will support missions like Hera and Juice while enhancing cooperation with Australia, NASA, and ISRO, ensuring broader coverage for interplanetary spacecraft.

A McGill-led study warns that rising sea levels could endanger more than 100 million buildings across the Global South, with coastal infrastructure in Africa, Southeast Asia, and the Americas most at risk. The findings highlight the urgent need for emissions cuts and coastal adaptation.

Analysis of Cassini data confirms Saturn’s moon Enceladus emits organic molecules, suggesting its subsurface ocean may harbor chemistry conducive to life.

Astronomers have discovered that Cha 1107-7626, a rogue planet 620 light-years away, is now the fastest-growing planet ever observed. The massive world consumes six billion tonnes of gas per second, a rate never before recorded. The findings suggest rogue planets can grow in star-like ways, reshaping how scientists view free-floating planetary objects.

Learn about the innovative multi-layer metalens design and its potential applications in portable devices. It is the first-ever discovery which would allow people to see the world differently. Unlike traditional lenses, these are fabricated by stacking together multiple thin layers of so-called metamaterials rather than using a single one.
