Space: Fast Radio Burst [FRB] Reaches Earth After Travelling 10 Billion Years! (23.9.2025)

Why cosmic noon matters

The burst came from a time nicknamed “cosmic noon,” when the universe was forming stars at its fastest rate.

Astronomers see a peak in the cosmic star formation history about 10 to 11 billion years ago, and this event sits in that era.

Finding an FRB there matters for more than a date on a timeline. It shows that whatever powers FRBs was active when young galaxies were busy building their stars.

“This discovery doubles the redshift reach of localized FRBs. Our observations establish FRB activity during the peak of cosmic star formation” wrote Caleb.

China: Scientists Unveil World’s First Hydrogen Anion Battery Prototype! (19.9.2025)

Hydrogen anions are highly reactive and polarizable, offering unique energy storage potential. But until now, no electrolyte had combined the high conductivity, thermal stability, and electrode compatibility needed for a functioning battery.

In tests, the prototype used sodium alanate as the cathode and cerium dihydride as the anode. It reached an initial discharge capacity of 984 mAh per gram and maintained 402 mAh per gram after 20 cycles. A stacked version delivered 1.9 volts and successfully powered an LED light, proving its feasibility beyond the lab.

Kim Jong Un Calls for Love of Scientists Across the Nation!

DPRK: Love of Science [and Scientists] Will Build a Powerful Socialist Country! (18.9.2025)

18/09/2025 Adrian (釋大道)

The Wisong Scientists Residential District, the Yonphung Scientists Holiday Camp, which is nearing completion, and the apartment houses for educators of Kim Chaek University of Technology built on the bank of the picturesque Taedong River.

After a while, Kim Jong Un said it is the firm determination of our Party to build a powerful socialist country by dint of science and technology, adding that we should build a new world by dint of science under the leadership of the Party.

He earnestly requested the scientists to make redoubled efforts, always bearing in mind the Party’s plan and intention to build a people’s paradise with science.

That day the officials deeply grasped the noble intention of the peerlessly great man to usher in a new era of prosperity with science and build a powerful socialist country to be admired by the whole world on this land. (End)

China: Flesh Embraces Steel in New Age of Prosthetics Aesthetics! (17.9.2025)

This is because the disabled suffer the greatest extent of discrimination – and many sympathetic able-bodied know that if they step out of line with their able-bodied colleagues – then doors are shut. Indeed, one comment was left at the foot of my article stating that “It is the fault of the disabled. All their extra needs are a burden to the average worker. Why should the average worker make any extra allowances for disabled individuals when they contribute nothing to the system, and are a drain on society? As the disabled produce little (or no) material gain and/or surplus profit through their labour – why should (the workers) share what little they have with them?” And this comment derived not from the right – but from the left! Today, I see comments like this on virtually ALL right-wing and far-right forums – with the left remaining quiet on the subject – whilst simultaneously doing nothing about it! This is the debilitating world of stifled intellectualism we live in in the West. Compare this with the giant strides being made in Socialist China!

Italy: Study Finds Winged Lion of Venice Has “Chinese” Origin! (11.9.2025)

11/09/2025 Adrian (釋大道)

It would seem that between the Tang and (Islamic) Yuan Dynasties (around six-hundred years) this Lion sat dutifully outside a temple (or a tomb) – before being transported to the West and extensively “altered” to suit Western sensitivities – although it is highly likely that very few Europeans knew what an African (or “Indian”) lion actually looked like. Most Chinese lions I have seen are sat-down and I have never seen such an object stood-up on all fours. It would be interesting to see what the Lion in question looked like before the alterations. Finally, it is interesting that the British author (and former Submarine Commander in the Royal Navy) – Gavin Menzies (1937-2020) – wrote a book entitled “1434: The Year a Chinese Fleet Sailed to Italy and Ignited the Renaissance” (2008). He discusses the Chinese delegation that met with Pope Eugenius IV in Florence (1434) – and suggests that China had some type of diplomatic connection with the City States (which included Venice). Those who criticise Menzies’ work – are the same people who would never have allowed for idea that St Mark’s Lion could be of a “Chinese” origin. Given that this Lion arrived in Venice around 1264 – this Chinese Mission would have occurred only 166-years later.

China: Breakthrough Enhances Deep-Sea Research! (6.9.2025)

06/09/2025 Adrian (釋大道)

Their latest research, titled “Plasticized electrohydraulic robot autopilots in the deep sea”, was published in the journal Science Robotics. Conducted in collaboration with Zhejiang University and the China Ship Scientific Research Centre, the research team has developed an electrohydraulic-driven soft robot which has been applied to deep-sea exploration.

As the largest unexplored frontier on the earth, the deep sea holds the key to understanding life origins, resource exploration and climate evolution.

However, scientists face significant challenges due to extreme conditions such as high pressure and low temperatures during their exploration. There is also another obstacle: balancing the high costs of exploration and equipment reliability with the protection of fragile deep-sea ecosystems, according to the research team.
