Crushed rock, climate and a weather model
Spreading powdered rock on farmland sounds low-tech, yet it is one of the more promising ways to pull carbon dioxide out of the air. On November 12, 2026, Microsoft's Source feature described TerraNova, a new AI model from carbon-removal company Terradot and Microsoft that aims to make the technique cheaper to verify and easier to scale.

Ultra-Flexible Devices to Monitor the Brain
Brain activity can be monitored with tiny flexible electronics which could roll up to fit in a pocket.
Charles Lieber, a nanoscientist and nanotechnologist at Harvard University, has designed latest ultra-thin electronics flexible enough to get stuffed into the needle of a syringe with a diameter as small as the average width of a human hair.
Currently available flexible electronics are usually flat sheets, designed to lie on surfaces. They help to monitor and manipulate living tissue but ...
