IPhone: the Apple News widget has disappeared from many smartphones
2024-05-04 07:39:15
“The Apple News widget has completely disappeared,” a user lamented Thursday on X, accompanying his message with a screenshot of his phone, where the space intended for the application displays a white rectangle. “On my iPad it simply disappeared,” comments another.
Since Thursday, many iPhone or iPad users have deplored the disappearance or inability to access this application, which offers a series of articles to owners of Apple products.
It seems the problem is global. The “Apple News widget has disappeared on all my devices as well as my friends’ devices. Does this happen to anyone else? », writes an American Internet user on Reddit. From Germany, Italy, Mexico, Austria and even India, and others are reporting the same problem.
Downloading the application even appears impossible on some devices. “This happened before she disappeared, but now I can’t even add her,” wrote one Dutch user. And the problem seemed to continue this Friday.
Contacted by several media outlets, including Le Parisien, Apple has not yet explained what happened. On a page displaying the “system status” of Apple features, the company reported no problems this Friday.

They achieve affordable and non-polluting green hydrogen. It brings us closer to the hydrogen car
The cars of the future could run on hydrogen, but there are multiple ways to obtain it This new way of obtaining hydrogen from waste is really interesting
The hydrogen car is one of the most coveted dreams today. It allows us to move efficiently and without generating particularly serious greenhouse emissions. For this reason, almost all automotive brands are working hard to achieve the first functional hydrogen engines. However, this raises new, equally important problems. There is no point in manufacturing hydrogen cars if obtaining it is very polluting, which is why there are many scientific teams trying to achieve green hydrogen that is much more sustainable and accessible to everyone. Now, one team seems to have done it quite successfully, which gives us remarkably about the hydrogen caror at least to an affordable and clean energy source for it.
A perfect advance for the future of the automotive industry
A scientific team from the University of Nottingham and other institutions has published an article in the Journals of Material Chemistry A explaining a method in which they can convert metal waste into a catalyst that produces hydrogen from waterThus, the dependence on fossil fuels and precious metals such as platinum that They are usually very expensive could be massively reduced.

Huawei has been secretly funding research in America after being blacklisted
Chinese tech giant Huawei has been secretly funding research in America despite being blacklisted, . The cutting-edge research is happening at universities, including Harvard, and the money is being funneled through an independent Washington-based research foundation, along with a competition for scientists.
Bloomberg found that Huawei was the sole funder of a research competition that has awarded millions of dollars since 2022 and attracted hundreds of proposals from scientists. Some of these scientists are at top US universities that have banned researchers from working with the company.
What’s the big deal? The fear is that this research could lead to innovations that give China a leg up with regard to both defense contracting and commercial interests, according to Kevin Wolf, a partner at the business-focused law firm Akin who specializes in export controls. Optica, the foundation behind all of this, has posted online that it is interested in “high-sensitivity optical sensors and detectors,” among other categories of research.
“It’s a bad look for a prestigious research foundation to be anonymously accepting money from a Chinese company that raises so many national security concerns for the US government,” said James Mulvenon,
US Space Scientists Rediscover Missing Satellite After 25-Year Disappearance, Shedding Light on Space Junk Problem
Newly Rediscovered Satellite Sheds Light on Space Junk Problem
In a remarkable turn of events, the US Space Force announced the rediscovery of an experimental satellite that had been missing in orbit for a staggering 25 years. Named S73-7 Infra-Red Calibration Balloon (IRCB), this tiny satellite was launched in 1974 alongside a Cold War-era spy satellite but suffered a malfunction upon deployment and never reached its intended size.
This peculiar incident raises questions about how the IRCB managed to evade detection for such an extended period. Jonathan McDowell, an astrophysicist from the Harvard-Smithsonian Centre for Astrophysics, offered his insights, suggesting that perhaps what was being tracked now could be a piece of the balloon or its dispenser that didn’t deploy correctly. Such non-metallic components are difficult to detect on radar, which may explain why it remained undetected and lost for so long.
While this rediscovery holds little scientific value in itself, it serves as a wake-up call to identify and address the growing space junk problem. Our skies have become increasingly crowded with countless objects orbiting Earth, posing significant challenges for tracking and managing these remnants from various space missions over several decades.

Moon is slowly shrinking and collapsing: new research
According to a new study, the Moon is slowly shrinking, causing an increase in the number of asteroids that could pose a threat to future astronauts.
Over the past few million years, Earth’s natural planet diameter has decreased by more than 100 meters as its interior has cooled.
Researchers at the University of Maryland say that it may seem like a gradual process, but due to shrinkage, there are significant changes in the surface of parts of the moon’s south pole, including NASA spacecraft. Also included are the proposed landing areas for Artemis 3. Artemis will also be crewed.
Since the shrinking of the Moon is accompanied by earthquakes, scientists have warned that places near fault zones could pose a threat to future humans.
Study co-author Thomas Waters, from the National Air and Space Museum, said, “When planning the location and stability of permanent outposts on the Moon, the distribution of new fault lines, their potential for activation, and their ability to contract The possibility of new fault lines being created by ongoing processes should be considered.’
In a new study, res earchers have linked fault lines in the moon’s south polar region to one of the most powerful earthquakes recorded by seismometers aboard the Apollo spacecraft 50 years ago.
