The startup AlterEgo has unveiled headphones that allow you to control your smartphone using the power of thought!

To trigger an action, you simply need to mentally pronounce a phrase — the device recognizes with ultra-high precision the neural signals that normally go to the speech apparatus when mentally articulating words, and converts them into commands for the smartphone.

The device attaches around the ears and back of the head, looks like a headset, requires no surgical intervention, and doesn't "read deep thoughts" — only what the user intentionally wants to send, for example, a note, an AI command, text, or a question about an object in front of them.

On the night of September 9, 2025, GOES satellites recorded an unusual drop in Earth's magnetic field for six hours.

Although there were no solar flares, proton storms, or powerful solar winds on the Sun, the planet's magnetic field unexpectedly weakened and "collapsed" inward.

This led to a displacement of the magnetopause near geostationary orbit, which is rare for such phenomena.

Scientists note that such events can affect the operation of satellites and communication systems in low orbit.
However, there is no serious threat to life on the surface.

Headlines about signs of life on Mars have caused quite a stir, but let's break down what the Nature article actually revealed.

The study describes an analysis of Martian rocks and gas composition in the Jezero Crater area, where the Perseverance rover successfully landed earlier. Scientists discovered organic molecules and complex chemical compounds that could be the result of biological processes. However, this data doesn't provide direct confirmation of the existence of living organisms on Mars — the molecules could have formed through abiotic (non-living) processes as well.

The key message of the article: while there's no definitive proof of life yet, the obtained data expands our understanding of the possibility of its existence on the Red Planet and sets new directions for research.

In the mountains of the Caucasus, there's a place where cars ride on an elevator — it sounds like science fiction, but it's the reality of the Adyr-Su gorge. This unique car lift raises vehicles to a height of about 2,400 meters above sea level.

The structure was created specifically to transport climbers and tourists to the base camps of Elbrus. In just a few minutes of ascent, breathtaking views of glaciers and peaks unfold.

The lift doesn't operate year-round — in winter it's shut down due to avalanche danger. The best time to visit is from June to September. The cost of the ride is quite reasonable for such an extreme experience.

The largest floating structure on Earth is Prelude FLNG, measuring 488 meters in length (almost four times the size of a football field) and 74 meters in width, making it even more impressive than the Empire State Building. This gigantic platform weighs about 600,000 tons, which is roughly six times heavier than the largest aircraft carrier.

Prelude FLNG is a floating liquefied natural gas facility developed by Shell for operation in a remote offshore area off the western coast of Australia. It is designed to extract and process gas directly at the site, eliminating the need to lay pipelines to the mainland.

The structure is built to withstand the strongest cyclones and is equipped with highly complex systems: over 260,000 tons of steel, 3,000 km of electrical cables, seven boilers for power generation, and a comprehensive safety system.

Tarbela Dam, Tarbela, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, #Pakistan 🇵🇰

The world's largest earth-filled dam — that's right! 143 meters high and nearly 3 km long. This massive structure on the Indus River was built in the 70s with assistance from the USSR and still provides a third of Pakistan's electricity.

The tunnels inside the dam are so huge that you can drive a truck through them. And the reservoir holds so much water that it's visible from space.
