In a landmark move to transform the European space innovation environment, the European Space Agency (ESA) has launched the European Space Deep Innovation Center (ESDI) in Switzerland. This cutting-edge initiative marks the ESA’s first physical footprint in the country, highlighting the growing strategic importance of deep technology in unlocking new frontiers for space exploration and Earth-based applications. ESDI was born from the close partnership of villages, one of Europe’s premier research facilities, Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI). Because of its proximity to PSI, the new center is ideally located to harness Switzerland’s globally recognized strengths in robotics, nanotechnology, quantum computing, artificial…
Thibault Launay and his wife, Simi, wanted to build their dream home in Portugal almost five years ago. But instead, what they encountered was a broken system. “14 months of delays, 20% budget overruns, and endless stress managing over 10 subcontractors,” recalls Thibault. They purchased the land in December 2020, obtained a construction license in early 2022, and began construction that year. “It was supposed to end in February 2024,” he said. But it was May 2025 and the house is not finished yet. “We’ve noticed,” he continued. So, Simi, the founder, entrepreneur, consultant and founder of Cereal, has launched…

Researchers have identified fuel cell solutions that will help electrify transportation systems and overcome the limitations of traditional batteries. Fuel cells triple the energy per pound of today’s best electric car batteries, providing a lightweight option to power trucks, planes, or ships. In contrast to batteries, fuel cells can be refueled immediately, rather than being charged. In this case, the fuel is liquid sodium metal, which is inexpensive and widely available. In a series of experiments using prototype devices, researchers have demonstrated that the cells can carry more than three times the energy they weigh more than three times the…
May 28, 2025Hacker NewsBrowser Security/Certifications Do you expect the end user to log on to Cybercriminal’s computer, open a browser and enter your username and password? Hopefully that’s not the case! But that’s basically what happens when they become victims of a mid-browser (BITM) attack. Like the man-in-the-middle (MITM) attack, BITM outlines in a paper in the International Journal of Information Security by researchers at Salento University Franco Tommasi, Christian Catalano and Ivan Taurino, which means that offenders are trying to control the flow of data between the victim’s computer and the target service. However, there are some important differences.…
May 28, 2025Ravi LakshmananNetwork Security/Vulnerabilities Cybersecurity researchers revealed details of tailored cloud-based scanning activities targeting 75 different “exposure points” earlier this month. The activities observed by Greynoise on May 8, 2025 were all globalized to Japan, including as many as 251 malicious IP addresses hosted by Amazon. “These IPSs triggered 75 different behaviors, including CVE exploits, misconfiguration probes and reconnaissance activities,” the threat intelligence company said. “All IPs are silent before and after the surge, indicating a temporary infrastructure challenge for a single operation.” Scanning efforts have been found to target a wide range of technologies, including Adobe Coldfusion, Apache…
