As the world accelerates its transition to clean energy, hydrogen has emerged as a cornerstone of decarbonization strategies—particularly in hard-to-electrify sectors like steelmaking, shipping, and heavy transport. However, the majority of today’s hydrogen is still produced from fossil fuels through…
Imagine a future where cities on the Moon aren’t built from steel and glass but from the very dust beneath our feet. That future is now taking shape, as lunar regolith becomes humanity’s greatest ally in surviving the harshest conditions…
The $10 Trillion Data Mismatch The modern digital world is drowning in data—and paradoxically, our most advanced infrastructure is part of the problem. Fiber-optic networks move information at staggering rates of up to 200 terabits per second, but as soon…
Introduction: The New Frontline of Global Power In the 21st century, wars may not be fought solely with missiles or soldiers but with minerals. Clean energy systems, electric vehicles, semiconductors, AI infrastructure, and next-generation defense platforms all rely on…
For millennia, the question “Are we alone?” echoed unanswered across civilizations. Today, scientific progress is bringing us closer than ever to an answer. Astronomers are now probing distant worlds for signs of life, not through imagined messages from intelligent species,…
Introduction: In the ever-evolving landscape of modern warfare, the ability to conceal military assets and personnel from adversaries has become increasingly vital. In the ever-evolving landscape of modern warfare, the quest for stealth and protection has driven relentless innovation in…
In an increasingly connected world, the demand for faster, more energy-efficient, and reliable communication technologies is growing exponentially. Traditional electronic systems are approaching their physical and performance limits, prompting a shift toward photonic technologies that use light instead of electricity…
In the race toward faster, smaller, and more energy-efficient technologies, lithium niobate (LiNbO₃) is experiencing a powerful resurgence. Once a niche material for optical applications, it is now positioned as a foundational building block for the next wave of photonic…
Hydrogen: The Clean Energy Game-Changer In the race to reach net-zero emissions, one fuel is capturing the world’s imagination—and investment dollars—like no other: hydrogen. In particular, green hydrogen, produced using renewable energy, is emerging as a versatile and powerful energy…
Introduction: The New Era of Energetic Superiority In today’s era of rapidly evolving warfare and strategic competition, energetic materials—including explosives, propellants, and pyrotechnics—have emerged as silent enablers of technological and geopolitical power. Far beyond their traditional roles, these compounds are…
