Now that the third MGS game's remake is out in early access, it's clear the game is a real delight for hardcore fans -- though others may not see much beyond a great game with beautiful graphics Metal Gear Solid Delta remakes the 2004 classic Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater with updated visuals, modern controls and some extra content, but it's not a full revamp.

Meet Surya, a New AI Model From NASA and IBM That Can Predict Solar Flares

cnet.com See Full Bio 2025-11-04 17:49:36

Today's solar flare forecasting is pretty straightforward. Earth has several instruments pointed at the sun that monitor it, and when a solar flare erupts, NOAA predicts whether it'll hit Earth and reports it via the Space Weather Prediction Center. But NASA and IBM may be able to do this faster and with a little more accuracy thanks to a new artificial intelligence model named Surya. Surya, which is Sanskrit for "Sun," is a 366M-parameter AI model developed to analyze the various cool things t

Africa Is Buying a Record Number of Chinese Solar Panels

While overall sales to African countries are still small compared to these traditional export markets, the Global South appears to be at a turning point in how it thinks about energy. For decades, energy-starved countries largely had one default option when they wanted to add new power supply: import coal and gas. Now, for the first time, solar energy is emerging as the cheaper and greener way forward, so there’s no need to sacrifice the environment for development. Familiar Story What’s happe

The Download: Ukraine’s Starlink repair shop, and predicting solar storms

technologyreview.com Rhiannon Williams 2025-11-05 23:10:00

Starlink is absolutely critical to Ukraine’s ability to continue in the fight against Russia. It’s how troops in battle zones stay connected with faraway HQs; it’s how many of the drones essential to Ukraine’s survival hit their targets; it’s even how soldiers stay in touch with spouses and children back home. However, Donald Trump’s fickle foreign policy and reports suggesting Elon Musk might remove Ukraine’s access to the services have cast the technology’s future in the country into doubt.

Sony raises PlayStation 5 prices in US as tariff fears persist The price hikes come after US President Donald Trump imposed tariffs on most of America's trading partners, including Japan, which has led to fears of rising costs.

Analogue delays its N64 remake console yet again

Analogue's 4K take on the Nintendo 64 is… still not quite here. The company announced its third delay to the Analogue 3D on Wednesday, pushing the retro system back to Q4 2025. However, it said that's an intentionally conservative estimate, so this probably isn't a huge concern. The postponement follows previous ones in March and July. (The last time was due to tariffs.)

NASA’s new AI model can predict when a solar storm may strike

Early testing of Surya showed it could predict some solar flares two hours in advance. “It can predict the solar flare’s shape, the position in the sun, the intensity,” says Juan Bernabe-Moreno, an AI researcher at IBM who led the Surya project. Two hours may not be enough to protect against all the impacts a strong flare could have, but every moment counts.

Last year, the most powerful geomagnetic storm in 20 years hit Earth. It produced stunning aurora displays in parts of the US that are normally too far south to see them. Normally, such storms are a headache for energy providers. In 1989, for example, the Canadian province of Québec suffered a nine-hour blackout following a series of plasma ejections from the Sun.
