Physicists Achieve Record-Breaking Electron Beam Power and Current at SLAC
Researchers at SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory have set a new record by generating the highest-current, highest-peak-power electron beam ever recorded. The beam reached 100 kiloamps in just one quadrillionth of a second, achieved through advanced compression techniques and magnetic field manipulation. This breakthrough could have major implica...

Frontier Supercomputer Simulates Universe with Unmatched Complexity
The Frontier supercomputer at Oak Ridge National Laboratory has conducted the most detailed universe simulation to date. Using the Hardware/Hybrid Accelerated Cosmology Code (HACC) under the U.S. Department of Energy’s Exascale Computing Project, the model incorporates dark matter, gas, and plasma interactions. With speeds reaching 1.4 exaFLOPS, ...

AI Generates Fluorescent Protein That Nature Would Need 500 Million Years to Evolve
A new AI-generated fluorescent protein, esmGFP, has been developed, a process that would have taken nature 500 million years. Scientists used ESM3, an AI model trained on billions of natural protein sequences, to design a functional protein beyond evolutionary constraints. The development is expected to accelerate medical research, drug discovery, ...

Vera C. Rubin Observatory to Detect Millions of Exploding Stars
The Vera C. Rubin Observatory, set to begin its 10-year Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) later this year, will track millions of Type Ia supernovae to advance our understanding of dark energy. These supernovae, resulting from white dwarf stars in binary systems, will be studied in detail to provide crucial data on the universe’s acceleratin...

Chorus Waves Found Far From Earth Raise Concerns for Space Exploration
Chorus waves, energetic electromagnetic bursts resembling bird chirps, have been detected 100,000 miles from Earth, far beyond their usual range. NASA's Magnetospheric Multiscale satellites observed these waves in a flatter region of Earth's magnetosphere, contradicting prior assumptions about their formation near strong magnetic gradients. The wav...

China Conducts Five Rocket Engine Tests in a Day, Advancing Space Projects
On January 2, China tested five rocket engines in Beijing and Hebei Province. These tests included hydrogen-oxygen and methane-based engines for various applications, such as lunar missions and deep-space exploration. The trials mark a significant step in China’s efforts to enhance its space programmes. CASC’s engineers have highlighted the suc...

Nvidia Cosmos AI Platform to Train and Develop Autonomous Vehicles and Robots Launched at CES 2025
Nvidia launched Cosmos, a new artificial intelligence platform that contains multiple generative world foundation models (WFMs), on Monday at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) 2025. The platform does not only contain these AI models but also include advanced tokenisers, accelerated video processing pipeline, and guardrails that enable the platfor...

Rubin Observatory’s 2025 Debut Could Unveil Hidden Dark Comets in Space
The Vera Rubin Observatory, set to begin operations in 2025, is expected to revolutionise the study of dark comets. These elusive objects, which lack visible tails but exhibit non-gravitational acceleration, have already been identified in our solar system, but their true numbers remain unknown. The observatory's advanced technology, including a po...

Japan’s New Energy Policy: Nuclear Power and Renewables Key to Future Growth
Japan is advancing a new energy policy that maximises nuclear power and expands renewable energy to meet rising electricity demand and ambitious decarbonisation targets. The plan envisions nuclear energy accounting for 20% of the supply by 2040 while renewable sources could supply up to 50%. This strategy also includes reducing reliance on coal and...

Taiwan Aligns with India, Japan on AML Regulations for Crypto Businesses, Accelerates Registration Deadline
This week, Taiwan's Financial Supervisory Commission (FSC) announced that all cryptocurrency firms, whether already operating in the country or planning to establish operations, must register for anti-money laundering (AML) compliance. The FSC has advanced the registration deadline from January 1, 2025, to November 30, 2024, urging firms to expedit...

Fastest-Moving Stars in the Galaxy May be Piloted by Aliens, New Study Suggests
A recent study proposes that advanced alien civilisations might utilise binary star systems, especially those involving neutron stars, as massive interstellar spacecraft. By ejecting material in specific directions, the stars could generate thrust, moving the system across the galaxy. Known hypervelocity stars with unusual accelerations are suggest...
