Australian Firm Neumann Space Pioneers Molybdenum-Fueled Space Propulsion With a Metal “Fuel Rod” Thruster

Australian Firm Neumann Space Pioneers Molybdenum-Fueled Space Propulsion With a Metal “Fuel Rod” Thruster

When most people hear “space propulsion,” they picture fire and chemical exhaust. But one of Australia’s most closely watched propulsion efforts is built around something far less cinematic—and potentially far more practical for modern satellites: a solid metal rod of molybdenum that can be turned into plasma on demand to nudge spacecraft through orbit. That technology, developed by Adelaide-based Neumann Space, has moved beyond lab demonstrations and into repeated on-orbit testing—an important step in a market that increasingly expects satellites to dodge debris, maintain formation, and safely deorbit at end of life. Over the past two years, the company’s Neumann Drive has progressed from first

The Role of Starlink in Scientific Research: How SpaceX’s Satellite Internet Is Transforming Field Science, Earth Observation, and Space Missions—While Challenging Astronomy

The Role of Starlink in Scientific Research: How SpaceX’s Satellite Internet Is Transforming Field Science, Earth Observation, and Space Missions—While Challenging Astronomy

Starlink—the low Earth orbit (LEO) satellite internet network built by SpaceX—was designed to solve a commercial problem: fast, low-latency connectivity anywhere on Earth. But as the constellation has scaled into the thousands of satellites and millions of users, it has quietly become something else, too: a new layer of scientific infrastructure. For researchers, Starlink is increasingly the difference between collecting data and acting on data—in real time, from places that used to be disconnected by default. From volcanic and seismic monitoring in Yellowstone, to university research vessels at sea, to Antarctic field camps, Starlink’s bandwidth and latency are changing how science is done

The Benefits of Brain-Computer Interfaces for Cognitive Enhancement: What 2025’s Breakthroughs Mean for Memory, Attention, and Communication

Brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) are having a breakout moment—not because humans suddenly have “telepathy,” but because several parallel developments are turning decades of lab research into early clinical reality. In 2025, multiple companies and research groups reported milestones that expand what BCIs can do, how safely they can be tested, and how easily they might plug into everyday technology—from restoring speech and text communication to exploring memory support and faster learning.

Interstellar Comet 3I/ATLAS Today: Latest Dec. 17, 2025 Updates Ahead of Its Dec. 19 Earth Flyby

Two days before it reaches its closest point to Earth, interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS is giving astronomers and serious backyard skywatchers a rare, time-limited opportunity: observe a visitor that formed around another star, then wandered into our solar system on a one-way trip back to interstellar space. The flyby itself isn’t close in the everyday sense—NASA says 3I/ATLAS will remain about 1.8 astronomical unitsfrom Earth on Dec. 19, 2025 (roughly 170 million miles / 270 million kilometers, nearly twice the Earth–Sun distance). But for scientists, it’s still “close” enough to run intensive observation campaigns, compare measurements across many telescopes and spacecraft, and test new ways of tracking

UK Stock Market Preview for 18 December 2025: BoE Rate Decision, Inflation Surprise, FTSE 100 Movers and Global Cues

London investors head into Thursday’s session (18/12/2025) with a single theme dominating the pre-open conversation: a surprise drop in UK inflation has strengthened expectations that the Bank of England will cut rates later today—and the market has already started repricing around that outcome. Office for National Statistics+1 Wednesday’s trading delivered a textbook “rates down, risk up” response in London: the FTSE 100 climbed and rate-sensitive UK sectors—banks and homebuilders—helped lead the rally, while sterling weakened sharply after the inflation print. Reuters That said, the overnight global backdrop is less straightforward. US equities slid hard, with tech and chips hit by renewed worries about the sustainability of AI

Australian shares are heading into Thursday’s open with a fragile global backdrop and a market that’s looking for a reason to stabilise after three straight sessions of declines. Pre-market pricing is essentially flat to slightly weaker, with SPI/ASX 200 futures hovering around unchanged to modestly down depending on the time you check—pointing to a cautious start rather than a decisive gap higher or lower. Market Index+1 That “tight” pre-open call matters because sentiment is being pulled in opposite directions: US tech weakness and elevated risk aversion on one side, firmer commodities (iron ore, copper, oil, precious metals) on the other.
