Fastest spacecraft so far The fastest spacecraft is NASA's Parker Solar Probe, as it keeps breaking its own speed records. On Dec. 24, 2024, the Parker Solar Probe reached a top speed of 430,000 miles per hour (692,000 km per hour). NASA's Parker Solar Probe is currently the faste...
Development of quantum theory, also calledquantum mechanics, began in 1900 when German physicist Max Planck introduced the idea that energy and matter exist in individual units. Further developments by other scientists in the 30 years that followed have led to the modern understanding of quantum theo...
In the 1670s, Danish astronomer Ole Rømer tried to create a reliable timetable for sailors at sea, andaccording to NASA, accidentally came up with a new best estimate for the speed of light. To create an astronomical clock, he recorded the precise timing of the eclipses ofJupiter's moo...
Meanwhile, in December 2022, NASA released a new image of Earth. Compared with the iconic “Blue Marble” photo taken 50 years ago, the new image reveals clear changes to the face of the planet. The Antarctic ice sheet has visibly reduced in size, dark green vegetation in the African trop...
Public WiFi is the kind you access at places like coffee shops, hotels, or airports (before COVID, at least). Expectedly, it's a breeding ground for creeps. Hackers love free WiFi for the same reason you do: Connecting to the internet requires no authentication. That network is littered ...

a gap in the experimental proof known as a "loophole." To close this loophole, the Delft team turned to ICFO, who hold the record for the fastest quantum random number generators. ICFO designed a pair of "quantum dice" for the experiment: a special version of their patented random number...
