Forward-looking: By combining different wireless techniques, UK researchers achieved record-breaking data transmission speeds. The technology achieved 1 Tbps in lab experiments. Now, it only needs to prove itself in commercially viable applications.

A University College London (UCL) team achieved a nearly one terabit per second data transfer speed over a wireless connection. The world record feat opens the doors to future improvements to high-speed wireless. The researchers used a wide range of frequencies in the electromagnetic spectrum, achieving data rates thousands of times faster than typical UK download speeds over 5G networks.

The recently published study describes an ultra-wideband transmission over the air that combines electronic and photonic-assisted signal generation to send 938 Gbps over a 5-150GHz frequency range. The researchers point out that traditional wireless networks use radio frequencies operating below 6GHz, providing an average speed of 100 Megabits per second over 5G.

Scientist Finds “Evidence” of Another Universe Before This One.

Studies suggest that before our universe, another, previous cosmos existed. They refer to this process as a kind of perpetual cosmic cycle.

A powerful geomagnetic storm caused a spectacular display of light that was visible unusually far from Earth’s poles.

As solar cycle 25 reaches its peak, solar activity has increased significantly. This surge in activity was evident in October 2024 when a remarkable display of the aurora borealis, also known as the northern lights, extended to observers on the ground beyond the Arctic Circle to midlatitude regions.

VANCOUVER, Wash. – Scientists have detected unusual seismic activity around Mount Adams in southern Washington, but say it’s no cause for alarm.

Nestled in the Cascades about 50 miles from Yakima, Mount Adams typically only experiences about 1 earthquake every 2–3 years, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. But the agency registered six small quakes just in September alone, ranging in magnitude from 0.9 to 2.0.

The USGS said they were the most earthquakes detected at Mount Adams in a month since 1982, when monitoring began.
