India launches its first mission to the Sun – BBC News

Published

on



India has launched Adita-L1 in what is the country’s first observation mission to the Sun, just days after it made history by becoming the first to land near the Moon’s south pole.

Adita-L1 lifted off from the launch pad at Sriharikota on Saturday at 11:50 India time (06:20 GMT).

Over the next four months, it will travel 932,000 miles from the Earth – 1% of the Earth-Sun distance – where it will be able to orbit the Sun at the same rate as the Earth.

From this vantage point, Aditya-L1 will be able to watch the Sun constantly – even when it is hidden during an eclipse – and carry out scientific studies.

    USA: hello India. U can't launch ur mission to the sun. It is dangerous u know. We always have dreamed of providing some freedom to that star but we preferred the middle east instead.

    India: nah bro. Actually, we travel to there during the night while the sun is turned off its light.

    Thank God!!!! At least she (bbc news anchor) didn’t mention about “not enough toilets for Indians” … “Why India needs a space program” … “return our Aid to India “ blah blah blah!!!!! I think this the first time BBC saw a space mission as a scientific achievement and no other strings (bad news and stigma) attached. 😅

    NASA's mission is already at the sun currently studying it. How this mission will be different from Nasa's already in progress mission? They should have sent a mission to some other planets which are still a mystery.

Cyber Attack: Ransomware causing chaos globally – BBC News

Published

on



Tens of thousands of organisations have been caught out by a computer virus called WannaCry. The malicious software locks data away and demands a payment of up to $300 (£230) a time before it will restore scrambled files. In the UK, many hospitals fell victim and some health organisations diverted ambulances and cancelled non-essential services as they sought to contain and clean up the infection. Infections in more than 99 nations are being reported by security firms. It appears that the hardest hit are Russia and Spain.

Is this AI’s moment of truth? | BBC News

Published

on



A year ago, artificial intelligence was being sold as something close to science fiction — a technology that could transform society, cure disease, even reshape the global economy.

Today, the tone is changing. The companies leading the revolution are racing to the stock market — chasing billions in investment — while quietly confronting a much harder reality: AI is expensive, unpredictable, and far from profitable.

At the same time, some of the very people building this technology are warning we may be going too fast — even calling for a global pause.
And beyond Silicon Valley, a different story is emerging: growing public anxiety, political backlash, and the rise of what some are calling anti-AI populism.

So is AI entering its most pivotal moment yet — caught between financial pressure, technological risk, and political resistance?

AI Decoded Presenter Christian Fraser is joined by Financial Times AI Editor Madhumita Murgia, Thematic Strategist at Deutsche Bank Research Adrian Cox and Richard Coffin, Host of popular investing podcast ‘ The Plain Bagel’.
