Science & Education

Fundamental and applied research continues to receive huge funding today, remaining a major driver of progress. In this section we write about cutting-edge scientific achievements (including independent ones) and educational opportunities available to forward-looking people. Who does what and where, what grants are awarded and who gets them, what to expect from the discoveries at the interface of various scientific disciplines and where one can learn things that are going to spread a year, five or ten years from now. You will find all about it here.

Top of the Most Amusing Scientific Theories That Scientists Believe In

Top of the Most Amusing Scientific Theories That Scientists Believe In

Science is far from being just boring formulas; it is also an infinite space for fantasies, which are nonetheless conditioned by various logical conclusions.
The Quantum Era: How New Computing Will Transform the World of Data

The Quantum Era: How New Computing Will Transform the World of Data

We stand at the threshold of a technological transformation comparable to the shift from steam to electricity or from analog circuits to integrated microprocessors. Today, the focus is on quantum computing—a technology that promises not merely to accelerate familiar computations but to redefine the very principles of how we interact with information. In this article, we’ll explore how quantum computers work, why they matter, and how soon quantum technologies may become part of our everyday lives.
Private Space Stations: What the Orbital Economy Looks Like in 2025

Private Space Stations: What the Orbital Economy Looks Like in 2025

Today, more and more commercial orbital complexes are emerging, even though many people still associate the space industry with massive, exclusively government-run projects. Yet private stations now combine laboratories, hotels, and testing grounds all in one. This is how a new sector is taking shape — the orbital economy.

Clean Energy 2030: How Innovation Is Making the Planet Sustainable

We live in an era when addressing climate change and achieving an energy transition is no longer merely an environmental goal but a genuine technological front line — one where “green” technologies are becoming the driving forces of industry, economy, and social transformation. In this article, we explore how new materials and energy sources are helping the planet, what role artificial intelligence plays in this process, and which companies are leading the greentech revolution.

Climate Under Control: How AI Predicts the Weather

Until recently, forecasters relied on vast amounts of data from meteorological satellites, ground stations, weather radars, and other sources (e.g., ocean buoys, radiosondes), which is received in real-time.

NASA Develops AI Model to Predict Solar Storms

NASA, in partnership with American tech corporation IBM, has developed an artificial intelligence system designed to predict solar flares. The AI model is called Surya — which means “Sun” in Sanskrit.

NASA Announces Manned Mission to Mars

Sean Duffy, Acting Administrator of NASA and U.S. Secretary of Transportation, has announced that a manned mission to Mars is planned for the early 2030s.

Scientists Discover Mathematical Pattern Behind Earth’s Catastrophic Events

A new study published in the journal Earth and Planetary Science Letters reveals a mathematical regularity in the occurrence of major disasters throughout Earth’s history.

Scientists Discover Traces of Ancient Cosmic Collisions Deep Within Mars

Scientists have identified large fragments of material in Mars’ mantle, believed to be remnants of catastrophic collisions with protoplanets during the planet’s early history. The findings come from a team of researchers at Imperial College London, who analyzed seismic data from eight Marsquakes.

Solar Storms: How Solar Activity Impacts Earth and Space – And What to Do?

In recent months, news headlines have been filled with alarming reports: “The Sun is Exploding,” “Powerful Magnetic Storm Hits Earth,” “Unprecedented Solar Activity.” Following these reports, many of us have been complaining more often about headaches, insomnia, or fatigue, attributing everything to the insidious influence of space.

Three Dimensions of Time: Does a New Theory Overturn Our Understanding of the Universe?

For centuries, humanity has perceived time as something one-dimensional, linear, inexorably flowing from past to future. However, recent research based on complex mathematical models and proposed by American physicist Günter Kletečka from the University of Alaska has allowed him to put forward a revolutionary hypothesis: time is actually three-dimensional, and space is only its derivative.

Space Calls: Humanity’s Daring Plans for Space Exploration up to 2050

Not even a century has passed since the first human spaceflight, and humanity’s ambitions already extend to distant planets and the exploitation of extraterrestrial resources. What horizons of space exploration do leading spacefaring nations see by the middle of the 21st century? We’ve gathered the most impressive projects from various countries and organizations in this article!

First Images from the Vera Rubin Telescope Released

The largest astronomical instrument has been installed at the Vera C. Rubin Observatory, located on Cerro Pachón in the Chilean Andes. Several other astronomical observatories are also situated in this area.

Mysterious Cone: Skull Found in Peru Puzzles Scientists

An archaeological sensation in Peru: a human skull of elongated, conical shape has been discovered in an ancient burial, raising many questions and sparking debate in the scientific community.

Scientists Confirm That the More Often We Open and Close Plastic Bottles, the More Microplastics Enter the Water

The study was published in the journal NPJ Science of Food and presents a summary of numerous other scientific works on micro- and nanoplastics in food products.
