Because nobody wants a bazillion volts zorching critical infrastructure Japanese tech conglomerate NTT has created a drone that triggers lightning, is then struck by a heavenly bolt it instigated, and survives the experience – all in the name of preventing damage from natural lightning.… Because nobody wants a bazillion volts zorching critical infrastructure Japanese tech…
Unusual signals called quasi periodic eruptions appear to come from black holes, but we don’t know what creates them. Now astronomers have seen the most powerful one of these signals ever, and have a new idea about their cause Unusual signals called quasi periodic eruptions appear to come from black holes, but we don’t know…

With ice and permafrost thawing fast, nations are racing to exploit the Arctic’s newly accessible treasures. Yet there are plenty of reasons why this may not be a great idea – and why we should treat the region as a scientific wonder instead With ice and permafrost thawing fast, nations are racing to exploit the…
