Live demonstration shows reliable satellite-5G connectivity on the move

Making video calls while travelling – or when faced with an unstable internet connection – just got easier, thanks to a technology that allows devices to seamlessly bond satellite and ground connections. The European Space Agency (ESA) recently partnered with British advanced networking technology company UniVirtua to conduct a live demonstration of the dashAlpha platform, which could be used to uninterruptedly connect vehicles essential to disaster relief as well as self-driving cars.

Scientists track lightning "pollution" in real time using NASA satellite
College Park MD (SPX) Sep 02, 2025
Picture this: You're stuck in traffic on a summer afternoon, checking the weather app on your phone as dark storm clouds roll in. You might think about power outages or possible flooding, but you probably don't think about how every lightning bolt that flashes across the sky also emits a gas, nitrogen oxide (NO), that is also emitted in the exhaust from your car's engine.
Yet, that's exact

NASA Scientists Map Plant Productivity with Data from Ocean Satellite
Washington DC (SPX) Sep 02, 2025
NASA scientists have developed a new set of tools to monitor plant growth under various conditions throughout the growing season. The hope is that land managers could use these tools to detect sudden drops in plant productivity and to respond earlier to events like heat stress, droughts, and cold snaps.
Monitoring the productivity, or how efficiently plants are producing energy through pho

Gloabl team expands gravitational wave catalogue with 128 new detections
London, UK (SPX) Sep 03, 2025
An international network of gravitational wave observatories has more than doubled the number of known cosmic collisions, detecting 128 new mergers of black holes and neutron stars. The results, published in the updated Gravitational Wave Transient Catalog (GWTC-4.0), showcase the expanding reach of the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA collaboration.
The detections, gathered between May 2023 and January 2
