The World Of Robotics Will Never Be The Same. Surge Velox, A Game Changer That Is Redefining The Concept Of Terrestrial And Marine Exploration.

With flexible fins resembling those of rays and millipedes, this robot is a true phenomenon, capable of moving easily both on land and in water.

Originally designed to generate electricity from rivers, the flexible fins now propel the Velox with impressive swimming abilities. The robot is not only versatile; it is also a landmark success in green energy, reimagined as an innovative propulsion system.

Velox: The First Skating Robot In The World

But wait, there’s more! Did you know that Velox is also the first robot in the world capable of skating on ice? That’s right, thanks to the principles of anisotropic friction, it glides over ice with an elegance that would make any Olympic athlete feel humble.

From The Ocean Floor To Space Missions

The applications of Velox are vast and exciting. We’re talking about exploration in deep waters, rescues in icy areas, wildlife filming, and even extraterrestrial missions, such as NASA’s exploration of Europa. It’s a lot of technology and innovation in one package!

Safety And Maneuverability

Besides being a technological marvel, the flexible and undulating fins of Velox offer unparalleled maneuverability and safety. It is the ideal choice for studying and mapping challenging environments, whether in the depths of the ocean or in the most rugged terrains.

Safety And Maneuverability

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.

The oldest tree in the world, alive since before the birth of Jesus Christ, is cut down in a scientific study and the case changes environmental preservation rules.

An entire island in the Pacific wants to surround itself with a colossal barrier against the ocean to try to escape increasingly violent waves and not be swallowed by the sea in the coming decades.

With 7.4 trillion tons of artificial snow pumped in 10 years, an extreme operation could stabilize the West Antarctic ice sheet and prevent a sea level rise of more than 3 meters, but it would require snow cannons, ocean water, and energy on an almost industrial scale at the end of the world.

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.

In the Saudi Arabian desert, the world’s largest green hydrogen plant is 80% complete and will use 4 gigawatts of solar and wind energy to produce 600 tons of clean fuel per day when it opens in 2027.

The Earth only had supermountains twice in 4.5 billion years, and during both times, life took a giant leap: first, visible organisms emerged, and then came the animals with skeletons during the Cambrian explosion.

The world has been generating 80% of electricity by boiling water for 200 years, but China has just turned on a machine that replaces steam with supercritical CO2 and promises to jump from 33% to 50% efficiency.

At a depth of 914 meters, a team accidentally discovers a pirate ship with cannons, a telescope, and objects from three continents on the seabed, uncovering a mystery that has haunted Europe for centuries.

Brazilian producers are leaving Roraima to plant in Guyana, where the government offers land on concession and does not charge taxes, while in Brazil the harvest faces high interest rates and a bureaucracy that hinders even the use of the rivers.

Instead of digging new holes, scientists dive into an abandoned acid mine lake in Montana and discover that the toxic water has already done the work of extracting rare earths from the rock on its own.
