U.S. company Shield AI and Europe's Destinus are partnering to integrate the Hivemind AI autonomy stack across Destinus's Ruta and Hornet unmanned systems. The collaboration aims to create a scalable, cross-platform autonomous architecture to support Ukraine and strengthen European defense, with joint demonstrations planned for 2026.

Astronauts aboard China's Tiangong space station have enjoyed the world's first orbital barbecue, baking chicken wings and steak in a specialized hot air oven. The historic meal occurred during a six-person crew handover just before the previous crew's return was delayed due to a suspected space debris strike.

Scientists from the University of Sharjah have published a groundbreaking review suggesting nuclear waste could be repurposed to produce massive amounts of clean hydrogen. Their research, published in Nuclear Engineering and Design, highlights methods like radiation-enhanced electrolysis that can increase hydrogen yield by up to tenfold, transforming a global environmental liability into a valuable energy resource.

Researchers at the Korea Institute of Energy Research (KIER), led by Dr. Kee Young Koo, have developed a breakthrough copper-based catalyst that turns carbon dioxide into carbon monoxide with 1.7 times higher efficiency, paving the way for cost-effective production of clean synthetic fuels.

Researchers from the Chinese Academy of Sciences have successfully tested an inflatable space factory module that launches compactly before expanding in orbit. Project lead Yang Yiqiang says the technology will push space manufacturing from proof-of-concept toward engineering reality.

Penn State researchers led by Professor Hongtao Sun have developed dense battery electrodes that achieve over 500 watt-hours per kilogram at the cell level. The innovation uses synthetic boundaries to create electrodes five to 10 times thicker and twice as dense than commercial versions while being ten times tougher, potentially enabling electric vehicles with much longer ranges per charge.

Scientists from Nanyang Technological University (NTU Singapore) propose building carbon-neutral data centres in space. Led by Professor Wen Yonggang, the plan leverages unlimited solar power and the extreme cold of space for free cooling, offering a sustainable solution to the projected 165 per cent increase in AI computing demand by 2030.

A research team from Chalmers University of Technology, the University of Gothenburg, and Uppsala University has created "retina E-paper" with pixels smaller than a wavelength of light. This breakthrough display achieves a resolution beyond 25,000 PPI, the absolute maximum the human eye can see, paving the way for perfectly realistic augmented reality and ultra-efficient

Scientists from the Chinese Academy of Sciences have found relics of rare CI chondrite meteorites in Chang'e-6 moon samples. This discovery confirms these water-rich materials, which make up less than 1% of Earth's meteorites, migrated from the outer Solar System, reshaping our understanding of planetary formation and the origin of lunar water.

China claims it has developed space-borne radar technology that can track stealth aircraft around the clock in all weather – potentially ending decades of stealth dominance. While optical satellites previously tracked F-22s through clouds, radar detection from orbit was considered unfeasible due to overwhelming background clutter. If authenticated in real-world scenarios, this breakthrough could fundamentally change modern air warfare.

A tiny fossilized fly from Australia's Jurassic period is rewriting evolutionary history. At 151 million years old, this ancient midge represents the oldest Southern Hemisphere record of its family and challenges decades of assumptions about where these insects originated. With an anchoring mechanism previously thought exclusive to marine species, this freshwater fly reveals how continental drift shaped life on Earth—and exposes how Northern Hemisphere fossil bias has skewed
