The aviation industry is experiencing a revolution with the incorporation of artificial intelligence (AI) into various aspects of its operations. Although airlines are not replacing pilots with AI anytime soon, industry experts believe that AI technology is already transforming the way airlines conduct business. Julie Pozzi, the head of data science and AI at Air
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) have become ubiquitous in our daily lives, from non-stick frying pans to stain-resistant sofas. These “forever chemicals” have been used since the 1950s due to their ability to repel water and oil, resist high temperatures, and act as surfactants. With over 15,000 different PFAS chemicals, each with at least two
The sunspot region that dazzled us with magnificent auroras in early May, AR 3664, has made a comeback in a grand fashion. After rotating out of view onto the far side of the Sun, it reappeared as AR 3697 on 27 May. With its return, it unleashed a series of powerful X-class flares, including an
Fatherhood is a significant life transition that can bring about various changes, including increased stress and responsibilities. A recent study conducted in the US has revealed that fathers tend to have poorer heart health compared to non-fathers. This article aims to delve deeper into the findings of this study and explore the implications it has
China’s Chang’e-6 lunar probe has made history by successfully landing on the far side of the Moon to collect samples, marking a significant milestone for Beijing’s space program. This achievement was reported by state media and signifies a major leap forward for China’s decades-old space exploration efforts. The probe touched down in the vast South
The history of Earth is marked by several significant events that shaped the course of life as we know it today. Among these events, the Great Ordovician Biodiversification Event stands out as a pivotal moment in evolutionary history. This 30-million-year period saw an explosive burst of biodiversity, with the emergence of countless new species that
Nvidia’s CEO, Jensen Huang, recently shared his vision for the future of artificial intelligence during his keynote speech at Computex in Taipei. He emphasized the idea that the next industrial revolution has already begun, with AI playing a central role in shaping the future of technology. Companies and countries around the world are partnering with
Metal halide perovskites have been a topic of interest in the field of optoelectronics due to their remarkable properties. Among these materials, tin (Sn) halide perovskites have shown promise in the fabrication of p-type transistors with impressive hole mobilities exceeding 70 cm2 V-1 s-1. However, the development of n-type transistors using perovskite channels based on
In recent years, Japan has seen a surge in tourism, with more visitors flocking to the country than ever before. One of the country’s most private attractions, the high-tech toilet, has gained international attention and is now considered a must-have in luxury bathrooms worldwide. These bidet toilets, equipped with warm seats and precision spray technology,
The cost of living crisis is causing many people to tighten their budgets, especially when it comes to their weekly supermarket shopping. Fresh fruit and vegetables, in particular, are often the first to be sacrificed. Data from the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) indicates that Australians were consuming less fruit and vegetables in 2022-23 compared
Cancer is a complex disease that continues to pose challenges in terms of prevention and treatment. While the classical theory of cancer development focuses on DNA mutations as the primary cause of the disease, recent research has shed light on the role of epigenetic changes in cancer initiation and progression. This article delves into the
Advancements in the field of robotics have paved the way for teams of robots to tackle more complex missions than ever before.
