Carnegie Mellon’s AI Drones Can Build Mid-Air Structures With 90 Percent Success Rate
Carnegie Mellon engineers have unveiled AI-controlled drones that 3D print by snapping magnetic blocks together mid-air. Powered by a large language model, the drones translate simple commands into precise construction plans, achieving 90% accuracy. The technology could enable aerial infrastructure repair and emergency shelter construction in hard-...

Saturn’s Moon Titan Breaks One of Chemistry’s Oldest Rules, NASA Study Reveals
Saturn’s moon Titan has shocked scientists by breaking a key chemistry rule. NASA and Chalmers University researchers found that polar and nonpolar molecules, usually immiscible, can mix under Titan’s extreme cold. The discovery deepens our understanding of prebiotic chemistry and could reveal how life’s building blocks form in frigid extrate...

Crystalline Ice Discovered in Space: New Study Reveals Hidden Order in Cosmic Ice
A groundbreaking study from University College London and the University of Cambridge reveals that water ice in space, long believed to be completely amorphous due to extreme cold, may actually contain up to 25% crystalline structure. Simulations and X-ray diffraction experiments confirm the presence of nanocrystals in so-called low-density amorpho...
