US Space Force practices 'orbital warfare' in largest-ever training event
neutralScience
The US Space Force just kicked off its biggest training drill yet, simulating combat scenarios in orbit. The goal? To prove they're ready to defend American interests—and dominate—in the increasingly contested realm of space.
Editor’s Note: Space isn’t just for exploration anymore—it’s the next potential battleground. With rival nations expanding their space capabilities, this exercise signals how seriously the US takes orbital security. It’s less about imminent conflict and more about deterrence: showing rivals that messing with satellites or other space assets could have consequences. For everyday folks, it’s a reminder that the "final frontier" is getting crowded—and competitive.

The front section of a U.S. warship, torn off by a Japanese torpedo during World War II, has been discovered in the South Pacific decades after the attack. While the ship itself miraculously stayed afloat, the incident claimed over 180 lives.
US Army deploys plastic coyotes attached to mini four-wheelers
neutralScience
The US Army is testing an unusual but surprisingly effective wildlife deterrent—plastic coyote decoys mounted on small four-wheelers. These low-tech "scarecrows" outperformed high-end robots like Boston Dynamics' Spot in scaring off animals, proving that sometimes simpler solutions work better.
Why bizarre Cold War hoverboats are making a comeback
neutralScience
Remember those weird Soviet hoverboats from the Cold War that looked like something out of a sci-fi flick? Turns out they weren’t just a failed experiment after all. Both China and the U.S. are dusting off the old blueprints and reviving these sea-skimming crafts—part boat, part aircraft—as tensions rise in the Pacific. It’s a case of old tech getting a new lease on life, but this time with higher stakes.
Editor’s Note: The world’s superpowers are digging into history’s toolbox to prepare for potential future conflicts, and that includes bringing back oddball tech like hoverboats. It’s a sign that the Pacific could become a flashpoint, and both sides are scrambling for any edge—even if it means resurrecting ideas once left for dead. For military watchers, it’s a fascinating twist; for everyone else, it’s a reminder that old Cold War ghosts might not stay buried.
