    NASA’s Psyche Mission: Embarking on an Epic Quest to an Ancient Asteroid

    Lead Image: NASA’s Psyche mission, deeply connected to MIT, aims to explore a metal-rich asteroid between Mars and Jupiter, believed to be the core of a primitive planet. MIT researchers play crucial roles in the mission’s magnetic field and gravity studies. The spacecraft will be equipped with a magnetometer, cameras, and a gamma-ray and neutron spectrometer, all crucial to unveil the mysteries of the asteroid’s composition and magnetic properties.

    Diamond Brilliance at MIT: Quantum Repeaters Revolutionizing Networking

    Lead Image: In the realm of quantum communication, the fragility of qubit transmissions resembles the information distortions in the children’s game of telephone. Scientists are now leveraging defects in diamonds to construct quantum repeaters. These repeaters bridge gaps between quantum systems, allowing for more reliable data transfer, with potential applications ranging from artificial intelligence to satellite navigation. This technology for storing and transmitting quantum information over lossy links could provide the foundation for scalable quantum networking. The popular children’s game of telephone is based on a simple premise: The starting player whispers a message into the ear of the next…

    EVEscape: The AI Revolution in Forecasting Viral Variants Before They Emerge

    Lead Image: Researchers at Harvard Medical School and the University of Oxford have developed an artificial intelligence tool, EVEscape, designed to predict the emergence of viral variants. Originally based on a model called EVE, which forecasted the effects of gene mutations on human diseases, EVEscape has been tailored for viral variants and validated with historical SARS-CoV-2 data. This tool could revolutionize vaccine development, surveillance of potential pandemic viruses, and facilitate quicker public health decisions. EVEscape predicts future viral mutations, new variants using evolutionary, biological information. New AI tool called EVEscape uses evolutionary and biological information to predict how a virus…
