Redakcija za znanost i tehnologiju

Our Science and Technology Editorial Desk was born from a long-standing passion for exploring, interpreting, and bringing complex topics closer to everyday readers. It is written by employees and volunteers who have followed the development of science and technological innovation for decades, from laboratory discoveries to solutions that change daily life. Although we write in the plural, every article is authored by a real person with extensive editorial and journalistic experience, and deep respect for facts and verifiable information.

Our editorial team bases its work on the belief that science is strongest when it is accessible to everyone. That is why we strive for clarity, precision, and readability, without oversimplifying in a way that would compromise the quality of the content. We often spend hours studying research papers, technical documents, and expert sources in order to present each topic in a way that will interest rather than burden the reader. In every article, we aim to connect scientific insights with real life, showing how ideas from research centres, universities, and technology labs shape the world around us.

Our long experience in journalism allows us to recognize what is truly important for the reader, whether it is progress in artificial intelligence, medical breakthroughs, energy solutions, space missions, or devices that enter our everyday lives before we even imagine their possibilities. Our view of technology is not purely technical; we are also interested in the human stories behind major advances – researchers who spend years completing projects, engineers who turn ideas into functional systems, and visionaries who push the boundaries of what is possible.

A strong sense of responsibility guides our work as well. We want readers to trust the information we provide, so we verify sources, compare data, and avoid rushing to publish when something is not fully clear. Trust is built more slowly than news is written, but we believe that only such journalism has lasting value.

To us, technology is more than devices, and science is more than theory. These are fields that drive progress, shape society, and create new opportunities for everyone who wants to understand how the world works today and where it is heading tomorrow. That is why we approach every topic with seriousness but also with curiosity, because curiosity opens the door to the best stories.

Our mission is to bring readers closer to a world that is changing faster than ever before, with the conviction that quality journalism can be a bridge between experts, innovators, and all those who want to understand what happens behind the headlines. In this we see our true task: to transform the complex into the understandable, the distant into the familiar, and the unknown into the inspiring.

Nobel Prize in Chemistry 2025: how MOFs paved the way for water from air, clean energy, and smart drug delivery

Nobel Prize in Chemistry 2025: how MOFs paved ...

Three laureates received the Nobel Prize in Chemistry 2025 for the development of metal-organic frameworks, porous crystalline networks that capture and release molecules by design. MOFs enable water from desert air, more efficient hydrogen and methane storage, selective CO₂ removal, and advanced drug dosing.

NASA tests drones and autonomy in Death Valley and Mojave for flight over Martian dunes and safer landings

NASA tests drones and autonomy in Death ...

The NASA JPL team in Death Valley and Mojave tested three drones with advanced software for autonomous navigation, developed after lessons from Ingenuity. The goals are reliable flights over uniform dunes and safer landings. Four-legged robots were trained in parallel at White Sands; the program covers 25 technologies.

Gabapentinoids, leg edema, and prescribing cascades: how to recognize side effects and prevent unnecessary diuretics

Gabapentinoids, leg edema, and prescribing ...

Gabapentinoids often cause peripheral edema that is misinterpreted as heart failure, fueling a prescribing cascade with loop diuretics and new risks for the elderly. The article brings clinical guidelines for recognizing drug-induced edema, rational titration or deprescribing, and non-pharmacological alternatives to prevent unnecessary hospitalizations.

Thirty years of the SOHO mission: how the ESA/NASA observatory from L1 transformed heliophysics, space weather, and comets

Thirty years of the SOHO mission: how the ...

SOHO, a joint ESA and NASA mission, has been continuously observing the Sun from L1 for 30 years. It pioneered looking beneath the photosphere with helioseismology, precisely measured TSI and variable EUV, and became the foundation of space weather forecasting with the LASCO coronagraph. Along the way, with citizen science, it discovered over 5,000 comets and inspired Solar Orbiter, Proba-3, and the future Vigil.

UCSF combined immunotherapy shows long-term HIV control without drugs in majority of Nature study participants

UCSF combined immunotherapy shows long-term ...

On the occasion of World AIDS Day, UCSF reported in Nature on a small but significant trial: a combination of therapeutic vaccine, bNAbs (10-1074 and VRC07-523LS), and lefitolimod enabled 7/10 participants to maintain low viremia after planned ART interruption, with cautious monitoring and clearly defined safety criteria.

Hydrogel artificial tendons from MIT give biohybrid robots 3x faster grip, 30x greater force, and 11x better power ratio

Hydrogel artificial tendons from MIT give ...

An MIT team has developed artificial tendons made of tough hydrogels that connect lab-grown muscles to a robotic skeleton. The new muscle-tendon unit enables grippers to close about three times faster and exert thirty times more force, operating stably for more than 7,000 cycles, with an 11x better power-to-weight ratio.

How ESA is building the Solar System Internet: Moonlight, HydRON and MARCONI connect optical trunk links, DTN and PNT

How ESA is building the Solar System ...

ESA initiates the construction of the "Solar System Internet" – an interoperable network for communication and PNT in deep space. The foundations are DTN, optical trunk links, and autonomous ODTS. Programs Moonlight, HydRON, and MARCONI form the system's backbone, while the ASSIGN initiative and SSI Node-1 Pathfinder mission accelerate standards, demonstrations, and commercial services from the Moon to Mars.

Greece launches two ICEYE radar satellites with EU and ESA support: strengthening disaster protection and security

Greece launches two ICEYE radar satellites ...

Two new ICEYE radar satellites, launched on November 28, 2025 on the SpaceX Transporter-15 mission, mark the beginning of the operational phase of the Greek National Small Satellite Program. The project, with support from the EU RRF and ESA, brings high-resolution imagery for faster response to floods, fires, and security threats.

Italian IRIDE expands fleet: eight Eaglet II satellites in orbit after Falcon 9 from Vandenberg, optics and AIS strengthened

Italian IRIDE expands fleet: eight Eaglet II ...

Eight Eaglet II satellites took off on November 28, 2025, on a Falcon 9 mission from Vandenberg, whereby IRIDE increased its optical fleet and overpass range over Italy and the Mediterranean. In play are ~2 m images and AIS for maritime surveillance; data goes to public services, alongside a rideshare with HydroGNSS and ICEYE payloads. A total of 16 IRIDE satellites are in orbit, and the status was confirmed by the OHB control center in Rome a few hours after separation.
