April 30, 2021

The winners of this year’s Rabobank-MIT Food and Agribusiness Innovation Prize got a good indication their pitch was striking a chord when a judge offered to have his company partner with the team for an early demonstration. The offer signified demand for their solution — to say nothing of their chances of winning the pitch competition. The annual competition’s MIT-based grand-prize winner, Human Dynamics, is seeking to improve sanitation in food production plants with a robotic drone — a……

Sandwich Boardwalk in Sandwich, Massachusetts

April 30, 2021

The Sandwich Boardwalk, otherwise known as the “Plank Walk,” is composed of hundreds of inscribed planks.

It was destroyed by Hurricane Bob in 1991 and was reconstructed using donations from community members whose names are inscribed on the individual planks. It was again partially destroyed in 2013 following a serious blizzard…….

Fucino Space Centre in Ortucchio, Italy

April 30, 2021

Fucine Lake (Lago Fucino) located in Abruzzo was once the third-largest lake in Italy, but since ancient times, there were many attempts to drain the basin. The large lake was surrounded by settlements, but while the basin provided fertile soil and plenty of fish, it had no outflow and was a source of malaria and frequently flooded. During the 1st-century CE, Roman Emperor Claudius attempted to drain the lake using a drainage tunnel. The water level was lowered but……

Eclipse Ventures has $500 million more to...

April 30, 2021

Two years ago, we talked with Lior Susan, the founder of now six-year-old Eclipse Ventures in Palo Alto, California. At the time, the outfit believed that the next big thing wasn’t another social network but instead the remaking of old-line industries through full-tech stacks — including hardware, software and data — capable of bringing them into the 21st century. Fast-forward, and nothing has changed, not inside of Eclipse anyway. While the world has gone through a dramatic transformation owing……

April 30, 2021

Former British foreign minister David Miliband SM ’90 offered a sobering warning about human rights and democracy while delivering a special MIT lecture on Wednesday — and outlined how we might confront the emerging “age of impunity,” in which authoritarian governments and even democracies are increasingly flouting the rule of law. “The next decade promises to be a race or a fight between accountability and impunity, within our own countries and internationally,” Miliband said, noting that lawlessness on the……

April 30, 2021

| Entrepreneurship

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (AP) — The Jacksonville Jaguars waited more than four months to make the easiest and maybe most significant pick in franchise history. As obvious as it was, fireworks and frivolity followed. A sold-out draft party that included 8,000 fans celebrated wildly as NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell stepped to the podium and announced Lawrence’s name as the first pick in the draft Thursday night. The Clemson star had a more subdued reaction in Seneca, South Carolina — probably…

RENTON, Wash. (AP) — While most of the league was sweating out picks and possible deals Thursday night, the Seattle Seahawks were celebrating. In their eyes, the Seahawks’ first-round pick in the 2021 NFL draft played for Seattle last season. “Our No. 1 pick is Jamal Adams, and that’s a heck of a pick,” coach Pete Carroll said. “He had a really good year leading into getting drafted by us No. 1, and it would have cost us another…

The L.A. Alley That's a Subtle Silent-Film...

April 30, 2021

Silent film star Buster Keaton crafted movies by letting locations speak to him. Though Keaton is most often remembered for his infamous unflappability—his “Great Stone Face” never registered the chaos around him—what stands out about many of his films now, as they approach their centenary, is Keaton’s great use of space. His approach to screenwriting involved plotting a beginning and an end, without worrying about what happened in-between. He let a site inspire him; gags emerged from the particulars……

April 29, 2021

In early 2016, Giovanni Melcarne, an agronomist and the owner of an extra virgin olive oil farm in Gagliano del Capo, walked through the southern Italian countryside of Puglia. He was with a fellow olive-oil farmer who had called and told him there was something he had to see.

Nanostructured device stops light in its tracks

April 29, 2021

Understanding how light waves oscillate in time as they interact with materials is essential to understanding light-driven energy transfer in materials, such as solar cells or plants. Due to the fantastically high speeds at which light waves oscillate, however, scientists have yet to develop a compact device with enough time resolution to directly capture them. Now, a team led by MIT researchers has demonstrated chip-scale devices that can directly trace the weak electric field of light waves as they……
