China has revealed intentions to accelerate the development of a “solar power plant” that can beam electricity from space to Earth. And with that, recent results have brought their plan to fruition and more data that could bring their plans to a faster pace.

How It Works

Researchers at Xidian University in Shaanxi province designed the complex project, which entails constructing a power plant attached to a satellite that can absorb sunlight high above the ground and transform it into microwave beams.

More Complex Than That

According to Xidian, while other countries have successfully tested individual components of such a system, Chinese researchers are the first to test a full-system model.

A video showcasing a future AI-piloted airplane that “wouldn’t ever land” has stunned viewers. Known as the “Sky Cruise,” it was created by Hashem Al-Ghaili and is essentially a floating hotel with 20 nuclear engines and space for 5,000 people.

The Future is Now

According to Al-Ghaili, the aircraft is the “future of transportation,” and traditional airlines will “ferry” people to and from Sky Cruise, which never touches down and even has all repairs done in flight.

How It Came to Be

Although the flying hotel’s debut date has not yet been set, not everyone is a fan of Al-concept. Ghaili’s Al-Ghaili focuses on providing content production, speaking engagements, and digital marketing services. He gave a Ted Talk about the education system in 2018 and how it might be improved.

The most accomplished basketball player in Australia will be competing for a roster slot as the Opals get ready to host the 2019 FIBA Women’s Basketball World Cup. The three-time WNBA MVP and Basketball Hall of Famer Lauren Jackson was declared to have ended her international retirement on Tuesday.

The Why

Prior to the competition, which runs from September 22 to October 1 in Sydney, Australia, Lauren Jackson has formally ended her international retirement in order to join the Opals.

More Left in the Tank

A Hall of Famer coming out of retirement is uncommon, but the 41-year-old Jackson, who was inducted in 2021, has been preparing for this occasion for some time. Jackson returned to the court this past April when she joined the Albury Wodonga Bandits in the NBL 1 East after a string of ailments forced her to retire from professional basketball in March 2016.

Jackson acknowledged that she is concerned about how her body will react to the increase in training since she hasn’t competed at this level since 2016. However, given that injuries ended her career, this opportunity to represent the Opals gives Jackson a chance to define the latter stages of her career on her own terms.

A nearly whole newborn woolly mammoth that has been mummified was found by a miner. On June 21, 2022, a mammoth was found in the Klondike gold fields in Canada’s far north. Since then, it has been referred to as Nun cho ga, which translates to “big baby animal” in the Trondk Hwchin’s Hän language.

Simply Amazing

The mammoth’s skin and hair were still in tact when it was discovered. Dr. Grant Zazula, a paleontologist, described it as “gorgeous and one of the most spectacular mummified ice period animals ever unearthed in the world.”

Among the Rest

In Dawson, Yukon, a short distance from Canada’s border with Alaska, a mammoth was found. During an excavating project, she was discovered. Over 30,000 years ago, woolly mammoths, enormous steppe bison, cave lions, and wild horses all frequented the region.
