Valve is launching three new hardware products next year that build directly from PC gaming experience. The company says it doesn’t look at what console makers are doing, focusing instead on what PC gamers want.
Blue Origin has delayed the second launch of its New Glenn megarocket because of an ongoing severe geomagnetic storm. The solar weather could interfere with the rocket’s critical systems and alter ascent conditions. NASA’s $80 million ESCAPADE Mars mission is riding on this test flight.
Scientists have successfully measured the superconducting gap in hydrogen sulfide for the first time, a material that becomes superconductive at -70°C. The discovery confirms that electron-phonon interactions drive superconductivity in these hydrogen-rich compounds. This breakthrough could accelerat
Foxglove just landed $40 million in Series B funding to expand its data platform for Physical AI. The company helps developers manage the complex data needs of robotics across industries from manufacturing to defense. This funding signals growing investor confidence in the infrastructure layer for a
Vodacom Group has entered a landmark partnership with Starlink to bring satellite broadband to millions across Africa. The deal includes equipment reselling and network integration to expand rural coverage. This collaboration aims to bridge the digital divide where traditional infrastructure isn’t f
Boston-based Teradar has secured $150 million in Series B funding for its terahertz sensor technology. The company claims it combines the best features of radar and lidar at a fraction of the cost. They’re already working with five major automakers and aim for 2028 vehicle integration.
Cape Town has launched a major landfill-gas-to-energy plant that converts methane into electricity. The R93-million project generates enough power for 4,300 households while reducing harmful emissions. City officials plan to expand the technology to more landfill sites over the next three years.
Samsung is reportedly planning substantial upgrades for the Galaxy Z Flip 8 in 2026, making it thinner and lighter to compete with Apple’s anticipated foldable iPhone. The company aims to drive most of its growth from foldable phones rather than traditional Galaxy S series devices. This comes as Sam
Scientists have developed a computational method that can scan hundreds of proteins for pH sensitivity in days instead of decades. The breakthrough could revolutionize how we understand and treat diseases from cancer to Alzheimer’s by identifying the molecular mechanisms that drive them.
Vietnam’s banking sector faces growing risks from rapid lending expansion, according to Fitch Ratings. The situation could deteriorate further when the government removes longstanding credit quotas, accelerating already high leverage.
