Autonomous Vehicles - The Future of Self-Driving Mobility 

Autonomous Vehicles – The Future of Self-Driving

Prem Ranjan, 0 comment

Autonomous vehicles (AVs) are known by different names, such as driverless vehicles and self-driving cars. Autonomous refers to the technology that is completely capable of performing and operating the required functions in vehicles without taking any help or letting humans do anything. This technology is made to quickly sense the driving environment and act as per the requirement. This technology can do everything that a human driver does. With time this technology is improving and advancing at much higher levels. Different Levels of Driving Automation: The technology of autonomous vehicles…

Novel 2D catalyst breaks the ties bound in methane

Aditya Mohapatra0 comment

Methane, which produces more warming than other greenhouse gases, is the subject of newly announced US emission restrictions. Methane is hard to break down and keep out of the atmosphere. Researchers at Iowa State University have found a catalyst technology that appears to be meeting all the requirements. Those reactions exhibit about 7% methane conversion with 95% selectivity toward ethane/methylene conversion. The products can be turned into plastics and resins, like polyethylene.

Automated Aerial Refueler Completes First Carrier Tests

Aditya Mohapatra0 comment

The Navy and Boeing have successfully maneuvered the Boeing-owned MQ-25 T1 test asset on a U.S. Navy aircraft carrier for the first time. This is an early step forward in ensuring the unmanned aerial refueler will seamlessly integrate into carrier operations. Navy flight deck directors – known as ‘yellow shirts’ – used standard hand signals to direct T1 just like any other carrier-based aircraft. Maneuvers included taxiing on the deck, connecting to the catapult and clearing the landing area.The demonstration followed a two-year flight test campaign for the Boeing-owned T1…

NASA is following two explorers across Antarctica to get people ready for Mars

Aditya Mohapatra0 comment

NASA is tracking two explorers on a 2,268-mile journey across Antarctica to learn more about humanity’s ability to survive on Mars. The men are braving freezing temperatures and katabatic winds up to the recorded maximum of 200 mph (320 km/h) as they make their way across the southernmost continent. The men have been tasked with obtaining key environmental data, including ice levels, radiation and wind speed. As satellites don’t orbit directly above the pole, the measurements they take will fill in a “satellite data gap”. Source: https://www.space.com/explorers-trek-antarctica-test-human-mars-survival

BUSPH scientists’ accomplices with writers, scholastics to uncover COVID-19’s secret mortality

Aditya Mohapatra0 comment

The collaboration aims to identify scope of underreported COVID-19 deaths in US counties. Dr. Andrew Stokes is an assistant professor of global health at Boston University School of Public Health. Studies suggest that the true number of COVID deaths in the US is likely much higher than records indicate. These hidden deaths appear to occur more often in counties with fewer primary care physicians and less access to health insurance, and disproportionately among communities of color.
