Title: Humanoid robot attacks engineers during assembly in China, sparking serious concerns Date of publication: June 4th/2025 Author: Brian Foster Article Link : https://glassalmanac.com/humanoid-robot-attacks-engineers-during-assembly-in-china-sparking-serious-concerns/ Random picture of different robot.  Summary of Article : An incident took place at the Unitree Robotics facility when the "company was assembling its new model. "The new model was a H1 Humanoid robot that is approximately 80,000 euros (approx. $124,000.00 CAD) and almost 1.8 meters tall. It was designed with the intent of having them safely work "alongside humans in industrial environments."  The robot suddenly began moving erratically, kicking and flailing. It even seemed to almost be pushing forward violently, "as if it were trying to escape." Engineers nearby backed away, and luckily one was able to shut it off before anyone got injured. Currently, there is no official statement as...

They believe "they've uncovered a vast underground network," consisting of massive vertical shafts containing spiral staircases, channels resembling pipelines for a supposed water system, as well as a "hidden world of structures more than 2000 feet beneath the surface." the researchers are even going as far to suggest that accla...

Title : Trees Synchronize Their Bio-electrical Signals During Solar Eclipses: 'The Wood Wide Web in Action' Date of publication : May 26/2025 Author : Andy Corbley  Article Link :   https://www.goodnewsnetwork.org/trees-synchronize-their-bio-electrical-signals-during-a-solar-eclipse-the-wood-wide-web-in-action The custom built sensors used to track bioelectrical activity. Summary of  Article : Recently, more evidence has arrived from the Dolomites, which is furthering the belief that trees display group cognition and communication. In the Dolomites a multidisciplinary team, comprising of experts from Spain, Italy, Australia, and the United Kingdom, monitored and observed a forest during a solar eclipse. The researchers witnessed two things: "that trees of the forest synchronized bioelectrical activity during the eclipse," and incredibly, "the process of synchronization was started and directed by the eldest of trees." This process, conducted by the elder tre...

Title : 'Another mind-blowing change': New data suggests mysterious dark energy is evolving Date of publication : Wednesday, April 2nd/2025 Author : Ashley Strickland, CNN Article Link :  Unexpected dark energy finding may change our understanding of the universe | CNN Image of our Milky Way Galaxy. Summary of Article: Dark energy is a term used to describe an energy that accelerates the expansion of the universe. It represents 70% of the energy in the cosmos, and "researches still have no idea exactly what dark energy is." A collaboration, known as DESI (Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument collaboration), includes more than 900 researchers.  This collaboration is based around the use of the DESI, which is a scientific instrument with 5000 fiber-optic 'eyes' that can see throughout different time periods of the cosmos. The instrument, now in its fourth year of serving, can observe light from 5000 galaxies at the same time, and in the next year when this proje...

Title : Sun releases strong solar flares, causing communication blackouts: What to know  Date of Publication : May 20th/2025 12:28p.m. ET Author : Melina Khan Article link : https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2025/05/20/solar-flare-nasa-space-sun/83741492007/ Image of our Sun producing Solar flares. Summary of Article : What exactly is a solar flare? A solar flare is a burst of radiation from the sun, and they are the most powerful explosions in our solar system. The biggest solar flares have as much "energy as a billion hydrogen bombs," and the most intense and powerful event that we have ever measured was recorded as an X28 in 2003. Luckily, the harmful radiation does not reach us on earth. In a span of two days, May 13 and May 14, the sun released two strong solar flares.  NASA (National Aeronautics and Space Administration) has reported two separate flares that were ranked in the X-class, which means that these flares are on the intense scale. The flare on May 13t...
