Amazon’s AI Boost to Improve Deliveries and Warehouse Efficiency Amazon is expanding its use of artificial intelligence (AI) beyond writing tools. Amazon’s AI boost will improve warehouse operations, and enhance mapping for drivers. Smarter Warehouse Robots on the Way Amazon has announced a new team at its Lab126 device unit focused on developing more advanced warehouse robots. These new robots will use “agentic AI”, a form of AI that can make decisions and act without further instructions. Unlike current robots that perform only one task, these intelligent machines will be able to switch between jobs. For example, they could unload…

Beta Technologies Makes Aviation History at JFK Airport Beta Technologies has become the first US company to land a fully electric aircraft carrying passengers at New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport. The landmark event occurred on Tuesday, 3 June, as part of a growing push towards sustainable urban air travel. The aircraft, named Beta’s ALIA, completed a 45-minute flight to JFK with a pilot and four passengers on board. This marks a significant step in the development of electric air taxis that aim to transform short-distance city travel. Electric Aircraft Designed for City Travel ALIA is designed to take…
The Milky Way’s Fate: New Study Challenges Andromeda Collision Timeline The Milky Way and the nearby Andromeda galaxy are speeding towards each other at around 250,000 miles per hour (400,000 kph). Scientists have long believed this would lead to a future galactic collision, destroying both galaxies. However, new research suggests this dramatic event might not be as certain as once thought. Collision Less Likely Than Previously Estimated Earlier studies predicted the Milky Way-Andromeda collision would occur in about 4 to 4.5 billion years. But fresh data from a new study lowers that likelihood. Researchers now say there’s less than a…
Breakthrough for Vertical Aerospace in European Skies Vertical Aerospace, a UK-based electric aviation pioneer, has successfully carried out the first piloted wingborne flight of a winged electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) aircraft in open European airspace. This significant flight, conducted at Cotswold Airport in western England, marks a major advance in the path toward sustainable commercial air travel. The aircraft, named the VX4, lifted off, cruised, and landed using its wings for lift, operating similarly to a conventional plane. The flight took place under the close supervision of the UK Civil Aviation Authority and was supported by extensive safety…
NASA Astronauts Wilmore and Williams Regain Strength After Lengthy Space Mission NASA astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams are easing back into their routines after returning to Earth in March. The pair had been aboard the International Space Station (ISS) for nine months, far longer than their planned eight-day mission aboard Boeing’s troubled Starliner capsule. Following their return, the astronauts began a 45-day rehabilitation period. This programme, standard for long-duration space travellers, helps them readapt to gravity. Wilmore, 62, noted that balance issues vary among astronauts but typically resolve with time. “Gravity stinks for a period,” he joked. During rehab,…
SpaceX Starship Launches Successfully But Faces Mid-Flight Issues SpaceX launched its towering Starship rocket from Texas on Tuesday, 27 May. While the rocket initially soared into space, it later lost control mid-flight. The mission did not meet several of its core testing targets, presenting new technical challenges for Elon Musk’s Mars project. Starship stands at 400 feet (122 metres) tall. It forms a central part of Musk’s vision to eventually send humans to Mars. The rocket took off from SpaceX’s launch site in Starbase, Texas, marking its ninth full test flight since April 2023. This launch was notable as the…
North Korea Condemns US Golden Dome Missile Shield Plan North Korea has strongly criticised the US Golden Dome missile defence project, calling it a serious threat to global stability. The comments were reported by North Korea’s state media on Tuesday. North Korea Labels Project a Global Danger According to the Korean Central News Agency (KCNA), North Korea’s foreign ministry has denounced the Golden Dome plan as a “very dangerous threatening initiative”. The remarks came shortly after US President Donald Trump announced the selection of a design for the missile shield on 20 May. He also named a leader for the…

It follows US President Donald Trump’s recent threat to impose 50% tariffs on…
Government Cites Lack of Cooperation from Telegram Vietnam Ministry of Information and Communications has directed telecommunication providers to block access to the messaging app Telegram. This decision follows Telegram’s reported failure to assist in criminal investigations, according to an official government document reviewed by Reuters. The document, signed on 21 May by the deputy head of the ministry’s telecom department, instructed telecom companies to implement blocking measures and report back by 2 June. The action comes at the request of the country’s cyber-security authority, prompted by serious concerns raised by local law enforcement. Alleged Criminal Activity on Telegram Under Scrutiny…
Quasar Disrupts Star Formation as Ancient Galaxies Collide Astronomers have captured a striking scene from the distant past, showing two massive galaxies racing toward each other. Each galaxy holds about as many stars as the Milky Way. This cosmic event occurred when the universe was just 2.4 billion years old—about one-fifth of its current age. Scientists compared the sight to two medieval knights charging at each other in a joust. These ancient galaxies were observed using two powerful telescopes located in Chile. The light we see from them today began its journey around 11.4 billion years ago. At the heart…
