A team of researchers from the University of Ottawa has developed innovative methods to enhance frequency conversion of terahertz (THz) waves in graphene-based structures, unlocking new potential for faster, more efficient technologies in wireless communication and signal processing.

THz waves, located in the far-infrared region of the electromagnetic spectrum, can be used to perform non-invasive imaging through for security and quality control applications. Additionally, these waves hold great promise for wireless communication.

Advances in THz , which can be used to change the frequency of electromagnetic waves, are essential for the development of high-speed and signal processing systems for 6G technologies and beyond.

SpaceX is preparing to launch the seventh Starship flight test. The window for the launch opens at 4 p.m. local time on Monday. The company has confirmed on its website, and X, that it is targeting a potential catch of the Super Heavy booster, if flight parameters allow for it. SpaceX will also try to re-ignite a single Raptor engine in space to demonstrate deorbit capabilities. This flight is the first one, that will feature the new upgraded Starship upper stage!

Window Opens: January 15th at 4PM CST (22:00 UTC)
Window Closes: January 15th at 5PM CST (23:00 UTC)

Mission: Starship’s seventh fully integrated test flight.
Launch location: Orbital Launch Pad A, Starbase, Earth.
Target orbit: Trans-atmospheric.
Booster: Booster 14
Booster recovery: Orbital Launch Pad A launch tower arms.
Ship: Ship 33
Ship recovery: Will attempt soft splashdown on the Indian Ocean.
Rocket trajectory: Straight east over the Gulf of Mexico.
Payload: 10 Starlink simulators.
Stats:
· SpaceX’s 7th launch of the year and the 7th launch of the month.
· Starship’s 7th launch.
· 3rd Super Heavy recovery attempt, hopefully the 2nd successful one.

The Chinese government is considering a plan that would have Elon Musk acquire TikTok’s U.S. operations to keep the app from being effectively banned, Bloomberg News reported Monday.

The contingency plan is one of several options China is exploring as the U.S. Supreme Court determines whether to uphold a law that calls for China-based ByteDance to divest TikTok’s U.S. business by Jan. 19, the report said, citing anonymous sources.

After that deadline, third-party internet service providers would be penalized for supporting TikTok’s operations in the country.

But the Spiking Neural Processor T1 should drastically slash the power consumption of future smart devices.

It works by analyzing sensor data in real time to identify patterns and potentially clean up the data coming out of the sensors — and no internet connection would be required.

The device is a neuromorphic processor — meaning its architecture is arranged to mimic the brain’s pattern-recognition mechanisms. To draw an analogy, when you sense something — whether it’s a smell or a sound — different collections of neurons fire to identify it.

Texas’ growth as a technology and data homebase isn’t slowing down anytime soon. This week, three firms announced the development of a massive, $1 billion data center being planned for North Texas.

Dallas-based fiber internet provider Gigabit Fiber, real estate firm Lincoln Property Co. and investment firm Tradition Holdings are reportedly partnering on the data center and tech space called GigaPop, set for a 131-acre tract of land in Red Oak, about 18 miles south of Dallas. Gigabit Fiber will begin construction of the 800,000-square-foot site in early 2025, starting with a 7,500-square-foot space.
