Gaza: Palestinian Communist Party Statement – On the Agreement to Stop the Aggression! (21.1.2025)

The occupation’s goals have shifted from trying to eliminate the Resistance and liberate the occupation’s prisoners – to a direct confrontation with the will of a people who decided to stand firm and fight until the end. However, the most important question remains the future of the Strip after the implementation of the Agreement. While there is a lack of information about the final date for the withdrawal of the occupation forces and the future of the Gaza Strip, it must be noted that the Western parties are seeking to establish American hegemony over the region, which is currently crystallizing in the annexation of the West Bank to the Zionist entity, and accelerating the normalization process between the Arab countries and the Zuonist-entity State.

China: Socialist Light Shone on “Big Bang”! (26.1.2025)

Many experts at home and abroad said that the observation results of EP240315a by the EP satellite have deepened humanity’s understanding of early universe gamma-ray bursts, offer fresh insights into the origins and evolution of the universe, Xinhua reported.

The EP mission is one of a series of space science missions led by CAS. This is an international collaboration effort, featuring contributions from the European Space Agency (ESA), the Max Planck Institute for Extra-terrestrial Physics (MPE) in Germany, and the French space agency CNES.

Launched into space in January 2024, the satellite has achieved several initial discoveries, such as an uncommon transient phenomenon, advancing understanding of the universe and extreme physical phenomena, Xinhua reported.

London: Chinese New Year Dim Sum (Yum Cha)! (26.1.2025)

We knew that the Saturday before Chinese New Year would mean that London’s Chinatown (Gerrard Street) would be packed so we got early (ish) to get out on the road by around 10am (early for a Saturday). We drove to Morden Tube Station (Northernline) and headed into Central London (Leicester Square). Actually, although busy, I think the crowd numbers were down on previous (pre-Covid) years! Still, less crowds equals less stress – although the staff of the New Loon Fung Restaurant were on edge – expecting a massive influx for “Dim Sum” (Chinese breakfast)!

China: Socialist Tech-Breakthrough in “Terahertz Wave” Control! (24.1.2025)

The newly developed terahertz wave polarization modulator outperforms other existing models, offering enhanced multifunctionality, a broader operating bandwidth, and high-precision control.

Terahertz waves, which occupy the spectral region between millimetre waves and infrared light, are characterized by broad bandwidth and strong penetration capabilities, making them highly promising for applications in next-generation wireless communications, material testing, and bio-medicine.

The research was jointly completed by the Aerospace Information Research Institute and Nanjing University. Its results have been published in the international academic journal Optica.

China: Joint Research Team – Unexpected “Chirping Chorus” Detected from Outer Space! (23.1.2025)

According to the research team, electromagnetic bursts play a crucial role in the formation of the Earth’s radiation belts, pulsating auroras, and the precipitation of particles into its atmosphere. Traditional views hold that chorus waves are formed in the magnetic field of a dipole of near-Earth space, where the magnetic field is similar to a large bar magnet.

The newly-found chorus waves were detected in a region where Earth’s magnetic field is stretched out, which scientists didn’t expect. They lasted about 0.1 second with a frequency of nearly 100 hertz per second, which are similar to the waves detected in near-Earth space. That raises fresh questions about how these chirping waves form.

China: PLA Navy Modernises for “Self-Defence” War! (23.1.2025)

Xiao Liang, a senior hardware researcher in the nation’s shipbuilding industry, said the Type 054B is the largest class of frigate the Navy has ever used and is almost as big as some of China’s old-type destroyers.

“Its large size allows for carrying more munitions and fuel, and also means this new class has bigger potential for further upgrade,” Xiao said. “Its propulsion system enables it to sail farther than other Chinese frigates. Another remarkable point is the new type’s radar system, which, without any exaggeration, makes previous radars of its kind look like antiques.

“Compared with previous frigate models in China that are mainly tasked with anti-submarine operations, the Type 054B is also capable of performing fleet air-defense missions,” he added.

Meanwhile, the larger air-service zone means the new frigate can bring a bigger helicopter such as the Z-20, and that will give the ship a better capability to detect, track and hit hostile submarines, according to Xiao.
