Emotion, creativity, engineering, and technology mark the tournaments of the beginner robotics category

Of the 21 regional tournaments of the FIRST LEGO League Challenge (FLLC) taking place across Brazil in the 2023-2024 calendar of robotics, ten have already occurred! The Social Service of Industry (SESI), which runs the competition in the country, has reached the halfway point of the calendar with 58 teams qualified for the national tournament. The national tournament will take place from February 28 to March 2 in Brasília, bringing together teams from all over the country in an exciting competition.

The national robotics championship promises to be an incredible event, gathering the best teams in Brazil for a grand showcase of creativity and ingenuity. Participants in the championship will have the opportunity to demonstrate their skills in a friendly and healthy competitive environment, promoting the development of technology and engineering in the country. Competing teams are preparing to give their best in the national championship, and the expectation is that the event will be a great success for everyone involved.

A village with 115 inhabitants wants new residents: it offers a house, a job, up to 44 thousand euros in benefits, almost free rent, an annual grant of 8 thousand euros for 3 years, and a 20 thousand euro incentive for businesses in the mountains of Italy.

NASA is offering US$ 750,000 to people from anywhere in the world who solve a problem that could decide survival on Mars: creating food for astronauts without relying on resupply from Earth.

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.

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.

After 16 years and almost 600 prototypes, a Chinese inventor unveils the world’s smallest and cheapest manned jet, at just 3.80 meters long and costing US$7.2 thousand in materials.

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.

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.

Car dealerships avoid these used cars like they’re bombs: famous engines, problematic belts, and expensive transmissions can turn a common purchase into a huge loss in the USA.

Germany installed vertical solar panels on a lake in Bavaria, and the result broke conventional logic: instead of producing energy at midday peak, the plant generates more early in the morning and in the evening, exactly when families turn on appliances and factories are in full swing.

More than 160 million gallons of water, equivalent to 240 Olympic swimming pools, need to be pumped to remove a 100,000-ton nuclear aircraft carrier from dry dock; each of these ships undergoes a complete overhaul costing US$2.8 billion.

With installments starting from R$ 999 per month, a 75 hp 1.0 engine, a 7-inch TFT digital panel, and standard stability control, the Citroën C3 is the cheapest hatchback in Brazil in 2026 and still leaves Kwid, Argo, and Mobi behind in onboard technology.

China achieves the “impossible,” transforms air into aviation fuel, and could be the solution to the airline industry’s cost pressures.

Anvisa orders the recall of Ypê products throughout Brazil after identifying a risk of contamination and serious manufacturing flaws.

The nuclear submarine that never arrives: The Álvaro Alberto project has accumulated 47 years of development, R$ 40 billion spent since 2008, and may now be delayed until 2037 due to a lack of R$ 1 billion in the Brazilian Navy’s coffers.
