Firefly’s Blue Ghost Moon Lander Mission Unveils Surprising Discoveries on the Lunar Surface
Firefly Aerospace’s Blue Ghost Moon Lander uncovered unexpected hard rock formations and extreme lunar heat variations during its mission. These discoveries provide critical insights for improving future lunar landers. As Firefly prepares for its annual moon missions, the lessons learnt from Blue Ghost's successes will guide robotics and human op...

MIT Engineers Create Miniature Zinc-Air Batteries for Cell-Sized Robots, Revolutionising Autonomous Technology
MIT engineers have made a significant breakthrough with the development of a tiny zinc-air microbattery, measuring just 0.1 millimetres in length and 0.002 millimetres thick, about the width of a human hair. This innovative battery captures oxygen from the air to oxidise zinc, generating a potential of up to 1 volt, which is sufficient to operate s...

Japan To Deploy VR-Controlled Giant Robot For Repairs On Railway Tracks
What's incredibly unique about this robot is that the human who is controlling it, is doing so through VR goggles. While holding on to a pair of handles, the operator is able to move the robot's arms and hands, thereby performing repairs remotely.
