With commercial flight operations set to commence at Noida International Airport (NIA) on June 15, passengers will initially have to rely almost entirely on cabs and private vehicles to reach the facility. The absence of metro connectivity and the delayed rollout of the city’s proposed electric bus service mean app-based taxis will serve as the primary mode of transport during the airport’s launch phase, according to Shafaque Alam’s Times of India report. Located nearly 65 km from densely populated areas of Noida and east Delhi — expected to be among the airport’s key catchment zones in the NCR — the…

In a new photograph snapped by astronauts on the International Space Station, you can see pieces of the Tyndall Glacier splintering off and floating out into the lake Lago Geikie. Even from space, the chunks of ice falling from the glacier can be seen floating away.The Tyndall Glacier in southern Chile is part of the Southern Patagonian Icefield. Located between Chile and Argentina,…

The F1 penalty points were first introduced to help the FIA have a metric in place to keep the driving standards above a threshold. These regulations were a result of an alarming dip seen in the early 2010s, where a new crop of drivers was seen being involved in far too many crashes. This led to a demand for a system that is more standard in terms of its approach and hence helps keep everything else in check. Hence, in 2014, we had the F1 penalty points system being introduced, where drivers were given points for every on-track transgression. The…

China’s Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) granted Xiaomi regulatory approval to produce extended-range electric vehicles (EREVs), clearing a key hurdle for the company’s expansion beyond battery-only EVs. The approval paves the way for Xiaomi’s first range-extended model — a full-size SUV codenamed “Kunlun N3” that measures over 5.3 meters long and targets Li Auto’s dominant L9. Xiaomi moves beyond pure electric Until now, Xiaomi has sold only battery electric vehicles: the SU7 sedan, which outsold the Tesla Model 3 in China earlier this year, and the YU7 SUV that undercuts the Tesla Model Y by $4,350. Adding extended-range…

Researchers at Osaka Metropolitan University have created a new artificial photosynthesis system that can generate solar fuel more consistently while eliminating the need for battery based control equipment. The advance comes from integrating a self regulating chemical component directly into the electrolyzer, reducing both system complexity and cost. Like natural photosynthesis in plants, artificial photosynthesis uses sunlight to transform water and carbon dioxide into energy rich compounds. One such product is formic acid, a chemical that can serve as a fuel and a way to store energy. How Artificial Photosynthesis Produces Solar Fuel At the heart of these systems is…
