In a surprising twist, the world of artificial intelligence is looking to the skies for a power solution. Boom Supersonic, known for its work on supersonic aircraft, has unveiled plans to adapt its engine technology for AI data centers. These modified engines, called Superpower turbines, are a spin-
Russia seems to be setting up new hypersonic missiles in Belarus. This is a big deal because these missiles can carry nuclear weapons and reach far into Europe. Two researchers from the U. S. found this out by looking at satellite pictures. The missiles in question are called Oreshniks. They can tr
Alanine is a building block of proteins. It is an amino acid. It is important to see how it behaves in water. Especially when it is cold. This is because proteins work differently in cold water. They can fold or unfold. They can also interact with water in unique ways. Scientists wanted to see how
Sound waves and cracks have a secret relationship. Scientists found that when sound waves meet a crack, they don't always bounce back. Instead, they can slip through or even change their tune. Here's how it works. A tiny crack was made in a glass plate by heating it up. Then, sound waves were sent
A new jet is making waves in California. The X-59, a unique aircraft, flew for the first time on a Tuesday morning. It took off from a runway in Palmdale, north of Los Angeles. This jet is special because it is designed to break the sound barrier without the usual loud noise. The X-59 is not your a
Boom Supersonic has teamed up with Microsoft to bring its supersonic aircraft to the popular Flight Simulator game. This collaboration allows gamers to experience the thrill of flying Boom's XB-1 prototype, which recently broke the sound barrier. The simulator will be available on PlayStation 5, MS
The X-59 is a big step forward in making supersonic travel quieter. It's designed to fly faster than the speed of sound without creating a loud sonic boom. This is a big deal because the loud noise from supersonic flights has been a major problem in the past. The X-59 is currently being built and t
Space travel is getting louder. The noise from rocket launches is becoming a bigger issue. It is not just the roar of the rockets as they take off. It is also the sonic booms from the boosters as they return to Earth. This noise can shake windows, disturb foundations, and wake people from their
A loud rumble shook Los Angeles on a Saturday night in May 2025. It wasn't an earthquake. It was a sonic boom from a SpaceX spacecraft. The boom was caused by a Dragon capsule returning to Earth. The capsule was carrying supplies to the International Space Station. It had left the station earli
Concrete is a big deal in construction, especially when it's reinforced with steel. But there's a sneaky problem: corrosion. This is a big issue, especially near the sea. It can lead to massive repair bills. So, how do we spot corrosion before it becomes a major headache? One way is by using a techn
