A call for collaboration in solar energy meteorology research
Solar energy has become a leading renewable energy source, renowned for its efficiency and cost-effectiveness in reducing dependency on fossil fuels. However, optimizing solar energy production presents challenges that extend beyond traditional engineering solutions, prompting the rise of a specialized field known as solar energy meteorology.
This interdisciplinary field focuses on evaluat Are we ready for the ethical challenges of AI and robots
Artificial intelligence (AI) and AI-enabled robots are rapidly integrating into everyday life, evolving from simple tools into entities that resemble human partners. This transformation brings critical ethical and legal challenges, ranging from privacy and safety to the regulation of increasingly autonomous systems.
The *Cambridge Handbook of the Law, Policy, and Regulation for Human-Robot DARPA's ASIMOV seeks to develop Ethical Standards for Autonomous Systems
CoVar, a prominent developer of AI and machine learning solutions for the Department of Defense, has secured a multi-year contract with the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) to contribute to the Autonomy Standards and Ideals with Military Operational Values (ASIMOV) program. This initiative aims to establish a quantifiable framework for assessing the ethical readiness of autonomo Kenya investigating fallen space debris

Sun emits three powerful solar flares
The Sun unleashed three significant solar flares on December 29, 2024, recorded at peak times of 2:18 a.m. ET, 11:14 p.m. ET, and 11:31 p.m. ET. These events were documented by the Solar Ultraviolet Imager operated by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), a continuous observer of solar activity.

Lunar Trailblazer will make macro-measurements of the lunar surface in 2025
NASA's upcoming Artemis II mission is slated to return astronauts to the Moon no sooner than April 2026. Astronauts were last on the Moon in 1972 during the Apollo 17 mission.
Artemis II will utilize NASA's Space Launch System, which is an extremely powerful rocket that will enable human space exploration beyond Earth's atmosphere. The crew of four will travel in an Orion spacecraft, which Sols 4402-4415: Rover Decks and Sequence Calls for the Holidays
Welcome to the 2024 holiday plan for Curiosity! This year we're spanning 14 sols to last us through the Earth new year. And this is my fourth year operating Mastcam during the holidays (throwback to 2023 Marsmas!). I already knew to expect a long day, so I got my lunch prepared - blew Mars a kiss in the pre-dawn sky - and headed to work at 0600 Pacific time to start planning prep. Luckily my tea
