Australian defense company launches high-energy laser system for space security







Australian firm Electro Optic Systems (EOS) has introduced its new Atlas Space Control capability at the International Astronautical Congress (IAC) 2025 in Sydney.

The system is part of EOS’ Atlas family of high-energy laser space control tools. It is designed to address the rising threats to satellites in an increasingly crowded and contested space environment.

Atlas is flexible and can be configured as fixed, mobile, or relocatable systems. This allows it to be deployed anywhere in the world to maintain freedom of action in orbit.

 Dr. Vandana Shiva: The Fierce Voice of Ecofeminism and Earth Democracy. In a world grappling with climate change, biodiversity loss, and the monopolization of natural resources, Dr. Vandana Shiva stands as a beacon of resistance, wisdom, and hope. A physicist turned environmental activist, Shiva has devoted her life to advocating for ecological sustainability , social justice , and the rights of small farmers and women , making her a globally respected thought leader in the realm of environmental science and ecofeminism. 🎓 Academic and Professional Background Dr. Vandana Shiva was born in Dehradun, India, in 1952. She initially pursued physics , earning a Ph.D. in the philosophy of physics from the University of Western Ontario, Canada. However, her passion for nature, indigenous knowledge systems, and justice led her to shift paths. In 1982, she founded the Research Foundation for Science, Technology and Ecology (RFSTE) , focusing on holistic and sustainable approaches to a...

National Science Day: 'Raman Effect' that won India's 1st Physics Nobel

Image
India observes February 28 as ‘National Science Day’ to mark the discovery of ‘Raman Effect’ by Sir CV Raman on February 28, 1928, the discovery for which he was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1930. But what exactly is Raman Effect? Let’s try to understand Rayleigh scattering Before diving into the Raman Effect, it is important to first understand its background. It all started with the ‘Rayleigh scattering’, a theory proposed by British physicist Lord Rayleigh, in which he answered the most basic question: Why is the sky blue? His theory stated that when sunlight interacts with air particles, it gets scattered. Because light is made up of different colours, the degree of scattering depends on the wavelength of the colour. Since violet and blue colours have low wavelengths, they get scattered the most. But because human eyes are more sensitive to the blue colour, the sky appears blue. Rayleigh then argued that the blue colour of the ocean is the mere reflection of the blue c...

When Einstein rescued Satyendra Nath Bose's rejected paper, changing quantum physics

When Einstein rescued Satyendra Nath Bose's rejected paper, changing quantum physics On the death anniversary of Satyendra Nath Bose, the man behind Higg's boson or the 'God Particle', we revisit how Einstein stepped in to save his rejected paper, leading to the Bose-Einstein statistics. Though Bose never won a Nobel, his work helped shape the field of quantum physics. On a typical day in 1924, Satyendra Nath Bose, a physicist from Kolkata, faced a disappointing setback. His paper on quantum statistics that introduced a novel way to describe particles of light (photons) had been rejected by a prominent journal. His paper treating particles as indistinguishable, challenging classical physics. It was a brand new concept, perhaps too bold for the time, and The Philosophical Magazine rejected it.
