New moiré superconductor opens the door to new quantum materials
In a recent study in Nature, scientists reported that moiré materials made from semiconductor materials can also be superconducting, a property once considered to be exclusive to the graphene system, paving the way for new materials with more unusual properties.
BIG boost to India's nuclear armament.
The Indian Navy on Thursday successfully conducted a test firing of the 3,500 km-range K-4 ballistic missile from its newly inducted nuclear-powered submarine, INS Arighaat. The test, conducted in the Bay of Bengal, marks a significant milestone in India’s defence capabilities, particularly in enhancing its nuclear deterrence and validating the country’s second-strike capability.

⚡️Kolar Leaf-nosed Bat
The Kolar leaf-nosed bat is a species only found in India that is at extremely high risk of extinction.
These bats live in just one cave in the Kolar district of the Indian state of Karnataka. There are only about 150-200 mature, adult Kolar leaf-nosed bats left in the world.
That is why the International Union for Conservation of Nature has officially declared this a “critically endangered” species.
The bats inhabit shrublands and caves in their small native range.
They face threats from:
Mining and quarrying activities in the region
Logging and deforestation removing their habitatAgricultural and forestry pollution seeping into their cave home
