  Astronauts are expected to release the satellite into a 400-kilometer orbit around the Earth. Kyoto University and Sumitomo Forestry unveil world's first wooden satellite The world's first wooden satellite, created by Japanese researchers, was launched into space on Tuesday in an initial test to evaluate the use of wood in lunar and Martian exploration.  LignoSat  , developed in collaboration between Kyoto University and construction company Sumitomo Forestry, will be transported to the International Space Station (ISS) on a SpaceX mission, before being released into orbit approximately  400 km above Earth  . Named after the Latin word for “wood,” this compact satellite seeks to demonstrate the  potential of wood as a renewable material  in space exploration, paving the way for the possibility of living and building in space using sustainable resources. https://ecoinventos.com/la-universidad-de-kyoto-lanza-el-primer-satelite-de-madera-del-mundo-para-...

  According to new research, another ocean is hidden beneath the surface of Miranda, a moon of Uranus, in this region of the Universe. In addition to Earth,  there are other worlds in the Solar System that could host oceans  . We are referring to the moons of some planets in this region. This is very interesting because, apart from giving us clues about how natural satellites were formed,  for scientists it can increase the probability of finding a habitable star or even one already populated by some form of life  . Among other cases,  Miranda, a moon of Uranus  , is included in this tentative list, since it seems that beneath its surface there is an ocean. What we've just told you is something that new research suggests. And according to a  statement  ,  this would also challenge many assumptions about the history and composition of this moon  , while potentially placing it in the company of the select few worlds in the  Solar...

Meta AI integration in WhatsApp has raised concerns among users about privacy issues and inaccurate responses. Although it cannot be completely disabled, it is possible to reduce its visibility and avoid unwanted interactions. The integration of Meta AI in WhatsApp has brought with it a series of mixed reactions among users of the popular messaging app. This artificial intelligence, designed to act as a virtual assistant that answers questions, provides information and facilitates interaction, has begun to raise concerns mainly related to privacy and the quality of its responses. Although Meta assures that data on WhatsApp is protected by end-to-end encryption, cybersecurity experts urge users to be cautious when sharing personal information in their chats with Meta AI. They argue that this technology, like other AI tools, can collect data that, although promised to be secure, remains in the hands of the company, generating a certain distrust among users. In addition, since it is not p...

Researchers have revealed new details about the interior of black holes by applying quantum computing principles. A recent study led by physicist Enrico Rinaldi of the University of Michigan has shed new light on what might lie inside a black hole. Using quantum computing and deep learning, this team of scientists has managed to advance the understanding of the internal structure of these enigmatic astronomical entities. Their research, published in The Brighter Side, focuses on  holographic duality  , a fundamental concept that suggests a connection between gravity and particle theory. This discovery not only offers new models for the nature of black holes, but also marks a milestone in the application of quantum computing in physics. https://www.semana.com/tecnologia/articulo/cientificos-descubrieron-que-hay-dentro-de-un-agujero-negro-la-revolucion-de-la-computacion-cuantica/202452/

Apple is considering, according to Bloomberg , launching a cheaper Vision Pro model by delegating power to the iPhone, as the first Watch did. Apple is considering developing augmented reality glasses, variants of the current Vision Pro, that would delegate most of the power to the iPhone, according to  Bloomberg  . This would be a great move to democratize Apple's augmented reality, currently limited by the €4,000 Vision Pro price tag. Why it matters  . This strategy would replicate the launch of the Apple Watch nearly ten years ago, which catapulted sales of subsequent models. By delegating power to the iPhone, it allowed for an initial launch that gained traction by keeping the price contained. That affordable price is key to mass adoption. https://www.xataka.com/realidad-virtual-aumentada/apple-tiene-camino-para-hacer-vision-pro-mucho-baratas-uso-apple-watch

  Apple just released the second beta of iOS 18.2, the update that will bring Apple Intelligence to more places Apple is not slowing down and  the second beta of iOS 18.2 for the iPhone  is now available , an update packed with new features. It is logical that Apple will continue developing this update as quickly as possible if it wants to meet the possible  release date of iOS 18.2  , which will be in just a few weeks. Two weeks ago,  Apple released the first beta of iOS 18.2  and, after the  official launch of iOS 18.1  , the company is already focused on this  second major update to iOS 18  . An update that we should see at the beginning of December. iOS 18.2 beta 2: all the new features iOS  18.2 beta 1 brings a number of new features  , including the expansion of Apple Intelligence to more countries. Starting with this release, Apple Intelligence will support English in Australia, Canada, New Zealand, South Africa, an...
