We're experimenting and would love to hear from you!
In this episode of Discover Daily, we explore a range of captivating stories from the worlds of technology, science, and history. We begin with the secretive military drone startup, White Stork, founded by former Google CEO Eric Schmidt. These AI-powered kamikaze drones are designed to support Ukraine in its ongoing conflict with Russia. Next, we celebrate SpaceX's successful fourth test flight of its Starship mega-rocket, marking a significant milestone in the company's space exploration efforts.
Moving on, we discuss an urgent safety warning issued by Humane, the company behind the AI Pin wearable device. Due to a potential fire risk associated with certain battery cells in the device's charging case, users are advised to stop using and charging the case until further notice. We also highlight a groundbreaking discovery by researchers at Western University, who have identified a protein interaction that could lead to a potential treatment for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).
Finally, we look into some lesser-known facts about D-Day, the Allied invasion of Normandy on June 6, 1944. From the original invasion date being postponed due to weather conditions to the use of dummy parachutists and inflatable tanks as part of a deception campaign, these fascinating details shed light on the challenges and ingenuity involved in this pivotal moment in history.
