Seven world powers including the US, China, and Russia are spending €22 billion on a reactor in the south of France that aims to confine plasma at 150 million degrees Celsius, ten times the temperature of the Sun’s core, using a magnetic field capable of lifting an entire aircraft carrier.

While Brazil has been discussing bullet trains for 16 years, China delivers 5 new high-speed lines in 2026, surpasses 50,000 km of HSR, and moves 1 billion passengers in a single year.

Elon Musk’s internet comes to mobile: Starlink technology connects smartphones without an antenna via satellite, works even without carrier signal, already costs just US$10 extra in the US, and could arrive in Brazil as an included benefit.

With a wingspan of 152 meters, 76 tires, and a capacity to carry 1,270 tons, the Boeing Pelican was the giant “flying ship” that promised to cross oceans close to the water on an invisible air cushion beneath its wings.

While countries spend billions to draw water from the sea, a Nobel-winning scientist creates a container-sized machine that extracts up to 1,000 liters per day from dry air and uses ultrasound to release water in minutes, even in the middle of the desert.

Belgium will sink 23 giant concrete caissons, each weighing 22,000 tons, in the North Sea to build the world’s first artificial energy island 45 km off the coast, forming offshore electrical walls.

In Niger, mud buildings have stood for ten generations while the world spends billions on concrete and steel, now African architects are proving at the Venice Biennale and in real projects that red earth can be the smartest and most sustainable building material of the 21st century.

The new generation of the Jeep Renegade targets SUV consumers below US$30,000 (R$150,000), a price range for intermediate versions of the T-Cross and Nivus in Brazil. The model was discontinued in the US in 2023, according to MoparInsiders.

Unprecedented technology from Australian scientists allows visualizing hidden flaws inside active chips with T-rays without disassembling devices, and this advance could accelerate the creation of faster and safer electronics.

A silent finding in Guaíba sounded the alarm for science and placed Porto Alegre at the center of a worrying investigation: dangerous bacteria defies 14 antibiotics, intrigues UFRGS researchers, appears on the capital’s beaches, and raises suspicions about hospital waste in the sewage.

Anvisa raises an alert in Brazil by prohibiting unregistered cannabis-based products and exposes the risk behind online sales.

A Russian ship that mysteriously sank near the coast of Spain was transporting nuclear reactor components destined for North Korea, and a CNN investigation suggests that the explosion may have been caused by a torpedo launched by Western forces in an unprecedented military operation.

A ship from China brought over 5,000 electric cars to Brazil at once: it was the largest operation ever recorded by the port, with 5,101 vehicles disembarking in Paranaguá.

The 17-meter, 20-ton monster that the US built in 1939 to dominate Antarctica — and that could only move by driving in reverse: the Snow Cruiser cost US$150,000 and was abandoned forever.

Chinese wind components arrive at the Port of Fortaleza with 76 pieces for wind turbines and continue by road to a wind farm in Rio Grande do Norte.
