In light of the serious health crisis faced by Amazonas due to the worsening pandemic of the novel coronavirus, 15 major companies and entities from the country gathered to carry out a solidarity action aimed at supporting the region.

The amount will be allocated to an oxygen production plant, which will support the public hospitals of the state that is experiencing the collapse of the second wave of Covid-19.

According to Petrobras’ statement, up to this point, the Foundation has donated five of these plants, with the support of the private sector.

The group, called Together for Amazonas, includes participation from Ambev, BNP Paribas, BRF, Coca-Cola Brazil, Group +Unidos, Magalu, Mercado Livre, Nestlé Brazil, Petrobras, Sesc, SulAmérica, WEG, Whirlpool, XP Inc., and Yamaha.

This action by these companies has the institutional support of Eletros – National Association of Electro-electronic Product Manufacturers – which helped in the creation of the group.

The companies in the ‘Together for Amazonas’ group will donate resources for the machines and accessories of the new plant, which has one of the most advanced technologies applied to this type of equipment and has the capacity to serve a hospital unit with 12 intensive care beds and 80 hospitalization and emergency care beds simultaneously.

Seen from space, an image taken by an astronaut shows an unlikely oasis in the Saudi Arabian desert, protected by a terrain that slows the advance of sand, surrounded by green circles, remnants of an extinct lake and nearly 10,000 years of preserved history.

While the U.S. still faces limitations in deep space, China is developing unprecedented technology with strategic satellites that maintain communication with the far side of the Moon and aims for dominance by 2030.

In Botswana, a salt flat of up to 16,000 km² that was once an African megalake spends months as an absolute white desert, but during the rainy season it transforms into a shallow sea that reappears from nowhere and can be seen from space in the middle of southern Africa.

The Blood Falls of Antarctica hide a living ecosystem trapped under the ice for over 2 million years, where microbes survive without light, without oxygen, and without ever having seen the Sun.

Bavarian archaeologists unearthed a medieval skeleton that had an articulated iron hand in place of its left arm, and the discovery reveals that doctors were already creating sophisticated prosthetics over 500 years ago.

The CEO of Honor in Spain says that smartphones will change with AI, foldables, and even robot phones; the component crisis is making cheap models more expensive in 2026 and shifting the focus to premium.

The probe that passed by Saturn nearly 20 years ago captured something that no one expected — and only now have scientists deciphered complex organic molecules coming from an ocean hidden beneath the ice.

Before mining the ocean floor, scientists found 24 unknown creatures at 4,000 meters — including an entire superfamily that science had never seen before.

In the asteroid belt, an “impossible comet” is releasing water vapor where it shouldn’t exist, and the James Webb telescope has revealed that primordial ice has survived for billions of years in a region that could rewrite the origin of water on Earth.

Mercedes has created an electric motor with over 1,000 horsepower that weighs only 12.7 kilograms — less than a suitcase and with the highest power density ever recorded.

At over 8 meters tall and resembling a trunk, this creature dominated the Earth 400 million years before the dinosaurs — and science still doesn’t know what it was.
