In Helsinki, reading warms more than the mind.

The Oodi Library captures human body heat from visitors and reroutes it through the building’s smart ventilation system — heating the entire space without burning a single drop of fuel.

Every person gives off around 100 watts just by being there.

Combined with solar glass and thermal recycling, the library runs near-zero emissions year-round.

No noise.
No smoke.
Just people… being people.

This is passive energy, activated by presence.

Want loyal employees and real growth?
Start with respect. Build trust.

The best teams don’t just work together.
They feel safe with each other.

When people are treated with kindness, something powerful happens:
Confidence grows.
Productivity rises.
Loyalty sticks.
Culture thrives.

But when leaders ignore respect…
Trust fades.
Gossip spreads.
The best people leave.
And the company slowly falls apart.

Great leaders don’t just build strategies.
They build a Circle of Safety — where everyone is valued, protected, and empowered.

Because people don’t give their best in toxic spaces.
They give it where they feel seen and respected.

Leadership isn’t about control.
It’s about creating a culture where your people can thrive.

Do your people feel safe to be their best at work?

Inside America's space missile tracking hub | BBC News
#BBCNews #Space #US
The BBC were given access to the nerve centre where America's space force can track missiles fired from anywhere in the world.

Located at Buckley Space Force base in Colorado, the team have been on high-alert in recent weeks, after Iran fired a salvo of missiles towards the US military base at Al Udeid in Qatar.

In recent years, they've been tracking movements in the middle east and Europe, providing a "strategic and tactical missile warning" to all US and allied forces, according to Colonel Ann Hughes.

The base will form a key part of President Trump’s plans for a US missile defence shield – known as the Golden Dome.

The US President has earmarked $175 billion for the ambitious programme – inspired by Israel’s Iron Dome air defence system.

The creation of the US Space Force five years ago is proof that space is now a warfighting domain. Both China and Russia have tested anti satellite missiles as well as ways of jamming their communications.

জেমস ওয়েব স্পেস টেলিস্কোপ (JWST) বর্তমান যুগের সবচেয়ে উন্নত ও শক্তিশালী মহাকাশ টেলিস্কোপ, যা আমাদের মহাবিশ্বের উৎপত্তি সম্পর্কে জানার নতুন দিগন্ত খুলে দিয়েছে।

জেমস ওয়েব স্পেস টেলিস্কোপ – এক নজরে
নাম: James Webb Space Telescope (JWST)

উদ্বোধন: ২৫ ডিসেম্বর ২০২১

স্থাপন: L2 ল্যাগ্রাঞ্জ পয়েন্টে (পৃথিবী থেকে ~১৫ লক্ষ কিমি দূরে)

প্রতিস্থাপন: হাবল টেলিস্কোপের উত্তরসূরি

ক্ষমতা ও বৈশিষ্ট্য
১৩.৬ বিলিয়ন বছর আগের আলো শনাক্ত করতে সক্ষম, যা প্রায় বিগ ব্যাং–এর পরপরই সৃষ্টি হওয়া প্রথম গ্যালাক্সি ও তারকারাজির চিত্র দিতে পারে।

ইনফ্রারেড টেকনোলজি ব্যবহার করে, যা ধুলোমেঘের আড়ালে লুকিয়ে থাকা বস্তু দেখতেও সক্ষম।

৬.৫ মিটার ডায়ামিটারের বিশাল গোল্ড-কোটেড আয়না দিয়ে গঠিত, যা আলোক রশ্মি সংবেদনশীলতা হাবল-এর তুলনায় ১০ গুণ বেশি।

JWST কী দেখছে?
প্রাচীন গ্যালাক্সি ও নক্ষত্রের জন্ম

এক্সোপ্ল্যানেট (বহিঃসৌর গ্রহ)–এর পরিবেশ ও উপাদান

কৃষ্ণগহ্বর (black holes), নেবিউলা, এবং গ্যালাক্সির বিবর্তন

কেন JWST এত গুরুত্বপূর্ণ?
এটি সময়যাত্রার মতো — যত দূরের বস্তু দেখা যায়, তার আলো আসতে তত সময় লাগে, ফলে আমরা মহাবিশ্বের অতীত দেখছি।

এটি বিগ ব্যাং–এর পরবর্তী সময়ে মহাবিশ্বের অবস্থা বিশ্লেষণ করতে সহায়তা করছে।

JWST আমাদের কী শেখাচ্ছে?
প্রথম আলো ও প্রথম গ্যালাক্সি কীভাবে সৃষ্টি হয়েছে?

আমাদের সৌরজগতের বাইরের গ্রহগুলোতে প্রাণের সম্ভাবনা কতটুকু?

মহাবিশ্ব কীভাবে প্রসারিত হচ্ছে?

How SpaceX Mastered Space Suits
SpaceX began developing its first spacesuit all the way back in 2015. It took Hollywood costume designer Jose Fernandez several months to design a suit that looked as sleek as possible,
and from there it was then up to the SpaceX engineers to make it functional. Has SpaceX mastered the Space Suit? In this video we’re going to learn how SpaceX mastered space suits, as
well as discover who won the giveaway from my video last month!

It looks like normal glass.
But try to break it… and it bends instead.

Researchers have developed a new type of flexible glass, made from ultra-thin silica structures reinforced at the molecular level.

It can bend up to 90°, survive drops, and resist shattering — even under intense pressure.

Used in foldable phones, spacecraft, and smart architecture, this glass combines the clarity of crystal with the flexibility of plastic.

It’s scratch-resistant. Lightweight. And soon — recyclable.

Imagine windows that flex with the wind.
Screens that fold like paper.
Glass you can roll up and carry.

When you run out of land…
You turn to water.

In the Netherlands, engineers are installing floating solar farms on lakes, reservoirs, and even the sea. But these aren’t ordinary panels — they rotate to follow the sun across the sky.

Built to withstand storms, these circular islands generate up to 40% more energy than fixed panels — while reducing water evaporation below.

It’s smart.
It’s self-cleaning.
And it’s reclaiming space in a crowded world.

Floating power.
Drifting into the future.

A forgotten shipwreck just changed everything we thought we knew about ancient electricity.

Off the coast of Greece, 40 meters beneath the Aegean Sea, divers uncovered what appeared to be just another broken ship lost to time. Wooden beams, bronze statues, shattered amphorae. But hidden beneath a collapsed cargo hold, something extraordinary waited — a sealed copper cylinder with two iron rods inside, wrapped in ancient papyrus.

At first, archaeologists dismissed it. Just debris. But when the object was tested, it sparked — literally. Traces of acid residue were found inside, along with signs of corrosion identical to what we see in modern batteries. It was nearly identical to the mysterious “Baghdad Battery” — but far older.

Carbon dating placed it around 160 B.C., and experts now believe the ship was carrying experimental electrochemical devices. It wasn’t just trade goods and wine jars. It was ancient energy.

But here’s what made scientists pause: A nearby Greek tablet described a “light without fire” used to read maps in dark cargo spaces. It suggests sailors may have used low-voltage lighting — powered by these primitive batteries — centuries before electricity was “discovered.”

The implications are massive. It means our ancestors may have understood electrochemical reactions well enough to use them in real-world tasks. Not magic. Not myth. Just forgotten science, buried in saltwater and silence.
