Steam Propulsion Emerges As A New Space Age Technology More than 200 years after the first steam-powered machines transformed industry, a new era of steam technology is taking shape in space. This time, engineers are adapting steam propulsion to power small satellites, offering a simple yet effective solution for orbital manoeuvring. Steam-powered thrusters, equipped with compact water tanks, are already operating in orbit. Moreover, this technology could redefine propulsion for the rapidly expanding CubeSat and small satellite sector. As thousands of small satellites launch each year, demand for efficient and compact propulsion systems continues to rise. Steam Thrusters Power Small…

Ukrainian Interceptor Drone Emerges As Key Defence Tool A Ukrainian developed quadcopter interceptor is rapidly transforming battlefield defence, combining speed and agility in a compact design. Built by private firm Wild Hornets, the drone has shifted from an experimental concept to a frontline solution against aerial threats. The aircraft moves with striking precision despite its unusual appearance, drawing attention for both its design and performance. During a demonstration at an undisclosed location, engineers operated the system while monitoring a live video feed from its onboard camera. Test pilot known by the call sign “Paskudnyk” described the experience as intense and…
The National Crime Records Bureau continues to compile and publish detailed statistics on crimes through its annual “Crime in India” report. The most recent edition covers data for 2023 and includes state and Union Territory wise figures on cybercrime cases. These cases involve communication devices either as a medium or as a target. Furthermore, the data spans the period from 2021 to 2023, offering a clearer view of trends in cyber offences across the country. Expansion of Cyber Forensic Infrastructure India has strengthened its cyber forensic capabilities through the establishment of advanced investigation centres. The National Digital Investigation Support Centre…
Nvidia chief executive Jensen Huang said on Monday that the company plans to eventually build data centres in space. He shared this vision during the annual GTC developer conference in San Jose, California, highlighting Nvidia’s long term ambitions in artificial intelligence infrastructure. Vision for space based data centres Huang outlined the idea as part of a broader push to expand computing capabilities beyond traditional limits. While he did not provide technical details, he positioned space based data centres as a future step in scaling AI systems. Moreover, the concept reflects Nvidia’s focus on meeting rising demand for computing power. As…
NASA sidesteps Artemis II risk numbers as Moon mission nears launch NASA officials avoided giving clear numerical risk estimates for the upcoming Artemis II mission, the first crewed flight toward the Moon in more than 50 years. During a press conference at Kennedy Space Center, agency leaders emphasised that while risk assessments exist, the numbers may not fully represent the uncertainties involved in such a unique mission. Artemis II will send four astronauts on a nine-day journey around the Moon before returning to Earth. The spacecraft will travel far beyond the distance reached by astronauts aboard the International Space Station,…
Deep beneath the mountains of Japan, scientists are preparing a powerful instrument that may soon reveal signals from stars that died billions of years ago. With a major upgrade to a huge underground detector, astronomers hope to observe ghost particles released during ancient stellar explosions. These particles come from supernovas, the violent deaths of massive stars. Although such explosions shine brightly, the light shows only a small part of the event. Most of the energy escapes in the form of ghost particles known as neutrinos. Because these particles rarely interact with matter, they travel through space almost untouched. As a…

Apple will reduce App Store commission fees in China, cutting charges to 25% as regulatory scrutiny of the company’s “Apple Tax” grows worldwide.
British startup Physical Mind London is developing a compact exercise system for astronauts on long space missions. Space agencies want smaller and more efficient solutions than the bulky machines used on the International Space Station. Therefore the company designed a device that focuses on movement, resistance and repeated jumping in microgravity. The machine is called HIFIm, which stands for High Frequency Impulse for Microgravity. It allows astronauts to perform jumping, hopping and resistance exercises while floating in space. As a result, astronauts can train their muscles and bones without relying on large powered equipment. Compact system for microgravity workouts John…
