China has achieved a major breakthrough in secure communication by deploying a "quantum satellite" that connects Beijing and South Africa, spanning 12,800 km (7,954 miles). This marks the first time a quantum key distribution (QKD) link has been tested in the southern hemisphere.

The technology, designed to be hacker-proof, uses the principles of quantum mechanics to share secret keys between parties — making it nearly impossible to intercept sensitive information.

China launched its first quantum satellite, Mozi, in 2016 and previously tested secure "quantum calls" between China and Austria in 2017. This latest test, led by Professor Yin Juan, shows real-time communication between quantum micro-nano satellites and mobile ground stations.

With plans to launch an operational quantum communication network by 2027, China aims to create a BRICS-wide system, connecting Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa.

Despite the high-tech nature of quantum security, Professor Yin emphasized the need for global cooperation in advancing this technology.

In just four minutes, a quantum computer solved a problem that would take the most advanced classical supercomputer billions of years.

This groundbreaking achievement came from researchers in China, who developed Jiuzhang, a 76-qubit photon-based quantum computer prototype. Unlike traditional computers, Jiuzhang relies on an intricate system of lasers, mirrors, prisms, and photon detectors to perform computations using a method known as Gaussian boson sampling. This technique involves detecting and counting photons, and with the ability to count 76 photons, Jiuzhang far exceeded the five-photon limit of classical supercomputers.

Beyond being a theoretical milestone, Gaussian boson sampling has real-world potential. It could be applied to solving complex problems in quantum chemistry, advanced mathematics, and even aid in the development of a large-scale quantum internet.

While both quantum and classical computers are designed to solve problems, they function in fundamentally different ways. Quantum computers leverage principles of quantum mechanics—such as superposition and entanglement—to perform calculations at unprecedented speeds, making them far more powerful for specific types of computations.

Scientists at Lawson Research Institute and LHSCRI in Canada are testing a bold new way to improve chemotherapy for advanced pancreatic cancer — using f***l transplants.

Patients will take capsules containing gut microbes from healthy donors, aiming to reshape their microbiome. Research shows cancerous tumors form their own bacterial environments, shielding them from treatment. The f***l transplants, called LND101 capsules, may break this barrier, helping chemo work better.

The Phase I trial will study how these transplants alter gut bacteria and immune responses. Early results from other cancers like melanoma and lung cancer show promise — could this be a breakthrough for pancreatic cancer?

Scientists say that something mysterious punched gigantic holes in parts of the Milky Way:

Something at least a million times the mass of the Sun tore through the Milky Way. This rules out ordinary stars, as it's just too massive.

And while a supermassive black hole could fit the profile, no such black hole has been detected in the area.

Ana Bonaca, an astronomer involved in the research, proposes an intriguing theory: the object could be a dense "bullet" of dark matter, an invisible and poorly understood substance thought to make up a significant portion of the universe.

However, it's too early to draw definitive conclusions. The research was presented to the American Physical Society.

A new feature lets users connect to Starlink for satellite-based texting.

Apple has made a groundbreaking move by partnering with SpaceX and T-Mobile to integrate Starlink satellite connectivity into iPhones via the iOS 18.3 update.

This unexpected collaboration introduces an alternative to Apple’s existing Globalstar-powered satellite service, providing users with enhanced connectivity in areas without cellular coverage. Early beta testers have already begun using the feature, which currently supports texting but is expected to expand to include images, music, and even video in future updates.

Users can manage the new satellite function through a dedicated toggle in their cellular settings, making it a seamless addition to iPhone capabilities.

This partnership signals a major shift in the mobile communication landscape, with Apple embracing an alternative satellite provider for the first time.

While T-Mobile initially limited its Starlink services to Samsung devices, this move opens the door for a broader rollout across various platforms, including select Android models. The announcement has already impacted the market, causing an 11% drop in Globalstar’s stock price.

A major milestone — Voyager 1 just crossed the 25 billion km mark from Earth

At this staggering distance, signals from Earth take more than 23 hours to reach the probe, with an equal delay for responses.

As it continues its journey through interstellar space, its next major milestone will be reaching one light day (25.9 billion km) from the Sun, expected in January 2027 — coinciding with the 50th anniversary of its launch.

However, dwindling power levels may require engineers to shut down some scientific instruments to keep the mission going.

But despite its immense speed and distance from Earth, Voyager 1 is still remarkably close to home. To put things into perspective, Proxima Centauri, the nearest star beyond our solar system, is 4.24 light-years away — a journey that would take Voyager 1 close to 100,000 years to complete.

In a major breakthrough in regenerative medicine, scientists have restored vision in patients using stem cells.

It offers new hope to millions.

A clinical trial in Japan in 2022 has successfully restored vision in multiple patients using a radical stem cell transplant. Researchers at Osaka University Hospital used induced pluripotent stem cells derived from healthy human blood cells to generate corneal epithelial cell sheets.

These sheets were transplanted onto the damaged corneas of four patients suffering from limbal stem cell deficiency (LSCD), a condition that causes scar tissue buildup and vision loss.

Two years after the procedure, the results show significant improvement, with three patients experiencing clearer vision and more transparent corneas. Unlike traditional transplants, this approach eliminates the need for donor corneas, offering hope to millions suffering from cornea-related blindness.

While the procedure remains experimental, it marks a major milestone in regenerative medicine.

Previous attempts at using stem cells focused on macular degeneration, but this is the first successful application for corneal restoration. Despite promising results, one patient experienced a decline in vision after a year, possibly due to an immune response. Researchers are now planning larger clinical trials to refine the technique and improve its long-term effectiveness.

If successful, this innovative treatment could revolutionize vision restoration, providing a sustainable and scalable alternative to corneal transplants for those in need.

Elon Musk has changed his X username again, this time to "Harry Bolz," a slang term. This comes right after a consortium led by him made a $97.4 billion offer to buy OpenAI, the company behind ChatGPT. Musk previously used the same name in 2023, joking about how the media covered it.

Musk is known for using playful online personas. In December 2023, he went by 'Kekius Maximus,' referencing internet culture. His latest move has social media buzzing, with many speculating about his reasons.

Right after the name change, a new coin called Harry Bōlz (HarryBōlz) launched on Solana’s PumpFun and surged by 17,000% in just 30 minutes. Meanwhile, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman rejected Musk’s offer, saying, "OpenAI is not for sale," and sarcastically suggested buying Twitter for $9.74 billion instead.

BREAKING: Scientists say whatever safeties we create may be useless in preventing harmful AI from taking over the world.

In fact, there is no current evidence that AI can be controlled safely, according to an extensive review, and without proof that AI can be controlled, it should not be developed, AI safety expert Dr Roman V. Yampolskiy warns.

When connected to the internet, AI may have access to all of humanity's data, allowing it to replace all existing programs and take control of all online machines worldwide.

And in a recent study, researchers developed a theoretical containment algorithm, which ensures that a super-intelligent AI won’t harm people under any circumstances. According to the study, an algorithm that would command AI not to destroy the world could destroy its own operation if it detects a potential threat.

However, it remains unclear whether the algorithm has successfully prevented a catastrophic event or is still analyzing the threat, making it difficult to know for certain if the machine has successfully prevented a catastrophe.

The study shows that traditional ideas for controlling super-intelligent AI have limitations, and new strategies are necessary, starting with disconnecting AI from the internet.
