Submarine with an autonomy of 54 hours.

A UAE-based startup has unveiled a new design for the Kronos submarine, which actually looks more like a futuristic spacecraft than a submersible. The submarine is designed for 11 people. The device is equipped with water cannons. Works both on the diesel generator, and on the electric motor.

Scientists are going to resurrect the Tasmanian wolves using the genes of marsupial mice.

First, they will have to reconstruct the genome of the extinct thylacine, after which they will have to match it with the genome of the marsupial mouse. They are believed to be close relatives. Then, with the help of reproductive technologies, an embryo will be created from the edited cells. It will be placed in an artificial uterus or implanted into the body of a surrogate individual - the same fat-tailed mouse.

BMW and Toyota are teaming up to create hydrogen-powered cars.

According to the head of BMW sales, the first jointly created hydrogen production car can be expected as early as 2025.

For the first time in history, scientists have given a name to a heat wave.

For the first time in history, Spanish scientists named a heat wave - Zoe. An extreme weather event was recorded in Seville on July 24-27. These days the temperature rose to 44.4 °C. In the future, in the names of new heat waves, female and male names will alternate in reverse alphabetical order. Hurricanes and cyclones have long been given human names, with the unofficial practice of naming winter storms dating back to 2012.

A British man has created a smart door to prevent a cat from bringing dead mice into the house.

The cat Jinx constantly brought dead mice and birds into the house of the owners. The owners got tired of dead animals in the house and came up with the OnlyCat system, an artificial intelligence camera that recognizes a cat and its victims at the front door. If Jinx comes with loot, then the system does not open the cat door. OnlyCat has prevented a cat from bringing home 42 victims.

Created by AI that recommends personalized fonts.

Adobe and UCF have created FontMart, a neural network that studies the reading technique and habits of the user. Based on this data, the AI recommends the most convenient font for a particular person and its size. The first tests showed almost one hundred percent marks from readers.

Создан ИИ, рекомендующий персонализированные шрифты.

Adobe и UCF создали FontMart - нейросеть, которая изучает технику чтения и повадки пользователя. На основании этих данных, ИИ рекомендует наиболее удобный для конкретного человека шрифт и его размер. Первые тесты показали почти стопроцентные оценки от читателей.

Canada has become the most popular country in the world for those wishing to relocate.

Residents of 50 states wanted to emigrate there. In second place is Japan, in third - Spain. These conclusions were made by Australian analysts from Compare the Market. They studied Google search data for different countries, which included keywords on the topic of moving.

The International Astronomical Society has announced a competition

Everyone can offer their name for the new exoplanets found by the James Webb telescope. True, naming a planet after a dog will not work - the community wants the name to pursue a specific goal. Basically, the idea is aimed at students and amateur astronomers, who are invited to shoot down in teams. But singles can also work.

Monsoons accelerate climate change.

Monsoons accelerate climate change, as they lift atmospheric pollutants - gases and aerosols - into the stratosphere and spread them over a large area. The South Asian monsoons create a layer of harmful substances about 16 kilometers above the Earth. It contains industrial, agricultural and transport emissions. The layer covers the regions of West Africa and parts of the Pacific Ocean.

Porsche and Pixar made a 911 model in the style of the heroine of the cartoon "Cars" - Sally Carrera.

The car will be sold at auction and the proceeds will go to charity.

Elon Musk explained why humanity needs to be chipped.

The entrepreneur is sure that implanting chips in the human brain is a great idea. Technology can help those who have experienced serious trauma. In their case, the chip will be programmed for treatment. For paralyzed people, the chips will help them use their brains to interact with computers. Musk believes that the technologies of his Neuralink company, which makes neural chips, will help achieve a better future for the whole world.

Starlink was hacked with just $25.

Security researcher Lennert Wouters hacked the SpaceX-operated Starlink satellite internet system using a homemade circuit board that cost $25 to develop. He physically disassembled the satellite dish and attached his modchip to it, consisting of a Raspberry Pi, flash memory, electronic switches, and a voltage regulator. After connecting to the Starlink dish, the tool launched a bug-injection attack to temporarily short out the system, which allowed Starlink's defenses to be bypassed so that Wouters could infiltrate blocked parts of the system. Wouters' attack causes the first bootloader to fail - a ROM bootloader that is flashed into the system-on-a-chip and cannot be upgraded. He then deployed the patched firmware to later bootloaders, all of which gave him root access and full control of the plate. SpaceX called Wauters' study "technically impressive."

Signs of its earthly origin have been found on the moon.

Scientists from the University of Washington have found that lunar rocks contain helium and neon - gases of terrestrial origin. And this proves that the Moon was once part of the Earth. Researchers suggest that the earth's satellite was formed as a result of the split of one large ancient planet. Probably, a large space object crashed into it, and it split into two parts, which later became the Earth and the Moon.

Scientists have learned to “erase” memories of drug addiction.

This discovery should help in the treatment of dependent people. Scientists took stem cells from the tissues of drug addicts, which can reach the brain and influence it so that it “forgets” about the sensations that a person experienced when taking drugs. After that, new memory cells are formed in the brain that do not carry information about addiction. After the job is done, the stem cells either migrate to another damaged site or die and leave the body. In theory, this method can help and get rid of nicotine addiction.

Maeklong Market.

In Thailand, there is one special Meklong market that can seriously scare you. No, it's not about prices or quality of goods. The fact is that a train passes through it, and there are very, very few places there. The train passes literally centimeters from the counters and people.

The Japanese giant hornet is the largest of all types of hornets.

The effect of a bite is compared to hammering a red-hot nail, after which the action of toxins begins, which causes swelling, fever, and even tissue necrosis. As a bonus, you can get not one, but several stings, since the hornet is able to sting repeatedly. On average, these guys kill about 40 people a year - more than any other wild animal in Japan.

Replica of the SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket.

Joe Barnard of the YouTube channel BPS.space spent 7 years developing a replica of SpaceX's Falcon 9 rocket - it repeatedly takes off at 800 meters and lands on supports. Subscribers helped Barnard finance the project. In the future, he wants to launch his Scout F rocket into suborbital space, to a height of 100 kilometers.

Bacteria capable of living on Mars have been found.

And even carry out photosynthesis. One strain of cyanobacteria from the Anabaena family, PCC 7938, can do more than just live in the Martian atmosphere. It will perfectly get along in the grains inside the Martian soil. Which theoretically opens up scope for the colonization of the red planet.

In Argentina, they discovered a new species of dinosaur that weighed like a cat and looked like a dragon

Paleontologists have found the remains of a previously unknown dinosaur species in southern Argentina, which they called Jakapil kaniukura ("shield bearer"). Such a dinosaur was the size of a cat, walked on its hind legs and looked like a small dragon. Scientists believe that Jakapil kaniukura lived about 100 million years ago. Its fossils have been found during excavations for the past ten years, but only now have researchers got enough data to single out this dinosaur as a separate species.
