Researchers are exploring quantum cryptography protocols that rely on causality, not just quantum mechanics, to ensure security against future unknown theories and potential "quantum jamming."
Samsung Electro-Mechanics secured a 1.5 trillion-won ($992.9M) deal to supply silicon capacitors to an undisclosed US tech company from Jan 2027-Dec 2028. These components are crucial for AI servers and high-bandwidth memory chips.
In the sci-fi novel The Three-Body Problem, humans build “gravitational wave antennas” to broadcast to the cosmos. Now, Chinese scientists have made a step forward in turning that idea into hardware – only in reverse. Science and Technology Daily reported on Saturday that a team from the Institute of Mechanics at the Chinese Academy of Sciences had developed the optical core of a giant space detector to listen to the universe. The detector is part of a space-based gravitational wave project...

Senior party sources warn poor local election results could trigger junior ministerial resignations providing cover for a leadership challenge. Starmer insists he will lead Labour into the next election, but allies acknowledge he has limited time to convince MPs, with one source suggesting he has nine months. The Mandelson appointment controversy and expected difficult election results next month have intensified pressure on his leadership.
