techcrunch.com Aria Alamalhodaei 2025-09-29 23:12:11

With Anduril’s help, Australia has done what the U.S. Navy has struggled to accomplish: transition an extra-large undersea drone from white board to under contract in just three years. Anduril announced Tuesday that a fleet of its XL uncrewed undersea vehicle (XLUUV) “Ghost Shark” will begin operations in Australian waters next year under a massive AUS$1.7 billion (US$1.1 billion) contract.

futurism.com Unknown 2025-09-30 08:04:22

NASA has announced that its Perseverance Mars rover spotted "potential biosignatures" in an ancient dry riverbed last year. Samples collected from a rock dubbed "Cheyava Falls" contain a structure that hints at the possibility of having a biological origin, according to the space agency, but more research needs to be completed to draw any conclusions about the presence of life on the Red Planet.

NASA's Perseverance rover finds potential signs of ancient life on Mars

engadget.com Unknown 2025-09-30 17:34:57

NASA just announced that its Perseverance rover recently found some promising signs of ancient life on Mars. The rover obtained a sample of rock formed billions of years ago from sediment and there are biomarkers indicating the potential presence of microbes once upon a time. Basically, the rocks contain minerals that typically form as a result of a chemical reaction between mud and organic matter. That doesn't necessarily mean that Mars once had life, as the minerals can form due to nonbiologi

After an exciting, revealing week away from the main storyline, Alien: Earth was back in Neverland for its latest episode. So many stories were left lingering, and with only three episodes to go this season, it’s time to kick them into high gear. Stories like Wendy being able to communicate with a xenomorph, Nibs becoming violent because she thinks she’s pregnant, and Slightly being blackmailed by Morrow into sneaking an alien embryo off the island.

Nuclearn gets $10.5M to help the nuclear industry embrace AI

Companies that have dug deep into AI have fallen in love with nuclear power for its promise of 24/7 electricity. Meta, Google, and Microsoft have all made deals with startups or reactor operators. But does the nuclear industry love AI back? Yes, with caveats. No one is proposing to let an AI run a reactor, but power companies are increasingly interested in the technology’s potential to tighten things up on the business side, Bradley Fox, co-founder and CEO of Nuclearn, told TechCrunch.

Cybersecurity is a massive sector, but startups in the category are more likely to be acquired than go public. Even Wiz, which for a time held the title of the fastest-growing startup, abandoned its IPO ambitions when it agreed to sell to Google earlier this year.
