The amount of energy released in a solar flare is truly bonkers.
The most powerful flares release as much energy as a billion hydrogen bombs.
That’s enough to power the whole world… for 20,000 years. ⬇️🧵
NASA’s SDO launch 15 years ago. Our Atlas V 🚀 destroyed the ☀️ 🐕 in the sky. Learn more in this segment of “NASA’s Unexplained Files”, Season 2, Episode 5 #nasa vimeo.com/1055590111?share=c…
Today 15 years ago our NASA SDO (Solar Dynamics Observatory), on top an Atlas V rocket, launched- doing something we had never seen before; the rocket destroyed a Sun Dog. #nasa #nasasdo youtu.be/axQg5vFW40k?si=mtbZ…
And these calls for real focus on robotic teaming are coming from all sides, including DHS. Offensively and defensively as both sides are absolutely needed. washingtonexaminer.com/polic…
Having worked on a Federal Task Force at the AZ border and learned on how the cartels are utilizing robotics, it’s truly a shame the US has not put more focus on this along the border. It’s frightening. newsweek.com/homeland-securi…
Drone warehouse inventory management achieving 99.9% accuracy. While still a rather “early days” use-case, it’s a very promising one for improved warehouse efficiency. interestingengineering.com/i…

Celebrating #NationalCroissantDay with a Swiss twist! 🥐
The #Gipfeli, Switzerland's answer to the croissant, is slightly denser and richer, with a doughy texture perfected by Swiss baking traditions. Curious? Try making your own: ow.ly/49O950UP2Ul

.@Astro_Suni rides the Canadarm2 robotic arm to the worksite where she will remove radio communications hardware for stowage inside the space station. Watch now on @NASA+. go.nasa.gov/406Ko1C
With the Dawn of Mobile Robotics and integrations of uncrewed systems into the NAS (small and large sized drones), the need of safe and fully inclusive NAS is larger than ever. And while there has been a focus on this topic, today’s tragedy shows that humans are weak link.
Our EENA 2018 findings matched; we identified that it‘s not the number of devices, but the complexity of the devices (not-standardized, bad UI) & more than one data-pipeline which actually are the reasons overwhelming mobile robotics operations.

More and more Swiss police units are using drones! This week @KapoZuerich utilizing aerial technology after an armed robbery. Let's get criminals off the streets thanks to tech in the air. #UAVsForGood 20min.ch/story/zuerich-drohn…
During our 2018 @112_sos Drones in Mountain Search and Rescue study we did and learned something very similar; the mapping of a glacier passage minutes before a rescue to find the most safest path. Study: eena.org/knowledge-hub/press…
Drones & AI in @fisalpine ski racing; not only finding the most optimal line, but also improving safety. @swissskiteam leading the way. Mapping the race by drone, using AI by @FH_Graubuenden. Fascinating! #UAVsForGood srf.ch/play/tv/einstein/vide…

How is this even a debate? It would be horribly negligent not to use drones and mobile robotics. What a mess! washingtonexaminer.com/polic…
This is exactly why Counter UAV was also part of our disaster deployments from 2017-2023; you have amateurs, insurances, news outlets and complete idiots out there also trying to fly. Don’t do it. I support arrest, confiscation and huge fines. dronexl.co/2025/01/09/drone-…
Our 16 law enforcement and fire rescue UAV Teams integrated directly into @CAL_FIRE and we used various counter UAV solutions as also a kind of a Control Tower so we could see where our own units are operating.
This was especially impactful during the night when most crewed flights were grounded. We used UAVs to track fire lines and protect communities from some of the worst; the looters! #UAVsForGood
