Researchers have quantified the growing danger of satellite collisions in low Earth orbit. Their “CRASH Clock” warns that without avoidance systems, a major impact could happen in less than three days.
Companies are designing satellites for Very Low Earth Orbit (VLEO), just 43 miles above Earth. The potential is huge, but the challenges are extreme, requiring radical new propulsion and heat shielding.
Google is testing an experimental Rust-based audio decoder in Chrome’s Chromium project. The work, which began as a feasibility discussion in 2023, is now in active development but remains disabled by default.
Power factor, a measure of electrical efficiency, is becoming a major focus for utilities and a hidden cost driver for data centers. Poor power factor leads to wasted energy, equipment stress, and soon, direct financial penalties from power companies.
Researchers have developed a layered material that can trap toxic PFAS chemicals from water with record-breaking speed and efficiency. The real breakthrough is that the same material can then be used to safely destroy the captured pollutants, closing the cleanup loop.
