A British company has installed in the middle of the ocean the world’s first floating platform that generates electricity 24 hours a day from the temperature difference between the surface and the depths of the Atlantic, without relying on wind or sun.

Great Atlantic Sargassum Belt has ceased to be a climatic phenomenon and has become a biological system that feeds on itself, with 8,000 kilometers in length, 37 million tons of algae, and scientists confirm that it is now permanent.

China is building an artificial island in the middle of the sea, covering 20 km², to construct the largest offshore airport in the world, the Dalian Jinzhouwan. This $4.3 billion project is anchored on more than 3,000 pillars embedded in the rock beneath the ocean and is scheduled to open in 2035.

A robot named Walter does the work of five bricklayers per hour and can save the construction industry, where the average age of professionals is 46 years and almost no one wants to learn the trade anymore, in the United Kingdom.

Austrian engineers have developed an inflatable concrete technology that transforms flat slabs into domes using only air pressure, eliminating scaffolding and temporary forms, and potentially changing the way bridges, tunnels, and curved roofs are constructed worldwide.

Engineers had to pour concrete mixed with tons of ice throughout entire nights in the Dubai desert to erect the Burj Khalifa; any carelessness could clog the pipes half a mile high.

The James Webb telescope spotted a planet 700 light-years from Earth with mornings full of sand clouds and nights with clear skies, the temperature difference between the two hemispheres reaches an impressive 170 degrees.

Genoa sank the 22nd concrete coffin of the new breakwater into the sea just 3 days after the previous one, in a project operated 7 days a week to shield the Italian port and expand its strength on Europe’s trade routes.

Work 4 days and have 4 days off (4×4 schedule): VLI Logística opens job vacancies for Customer Service Technician in Minas Gerais with attractive salary and benefits such as meal voucher, medical and dental assistance, private pension, and profit sharing.

Work as an Enem exam supervisor and earn R$ 864 per day: Inep opens national selection for Enem, PND, and Enamed 2026 certifiers with applications from June 8 to 28 and strategic roles in exam supervision throughout Brazil.

With the new law, military personnel no longer need to contribute to the INSS: exemption from social security involves specific situations, expands unprecedented rights, and causes a strong reaction among public servants in Minas Gerais.

Jetour accelerates in Brazil, surpasses 1,000 cars sold in just 3 months, and bets on plug-in hybrid SUVs to enter the competition strongly against BYD and GWM.
