Various measures have been taken to confront risks of landslides, urban waterlogging and reservoir dam breaches as Typhoon Dolphin brought heavy rain and strong winds to Central and North China on Tuesday.周二,台风“白海豚”给我国华中、华北地区带来强降雨与大风天气,各地已采取多项举措,防范山体滑坡、城市内涝、水库溃坝风险。After the typhoon, the 13th of this year, made landfall in East China's Zhejiang province on Sunday, it moved west to Central China's Hubei province on Tuesday.今年第13号台风于周日在华东浙江省登陆,随后向西移动,周二抵达华中湖北省。Gales from level 7 to 10 and above brought by the typhoon have affected the province since Monday. Dolphin also brought heavy rain in cities such as Suizhou and Xiangyang during the period, with torrential downpours in some areas.自周一以来,台风带来7至10级及以上大风侵袭湖北。与此同时,随州、襄阳等城市普降大雨,局部地区出现暴雨。The rain is expected to continue until Wednesday morning and ease markedly by the same afternoon, according to Chen Xuan, chief forecaster of the Hubei meteorological observatory.湖北省气象台首席预报员陈璇介绍,降雨将持续至周三上午,周三下午雨势将明显减弱。"Long spells of rainfall will bring substantial accumulated precipitation. There are elevated risks of geological disasters, river floods and waterlogging in urban and rural areas, which need strengthened precautions," Chen said.“持续性降雨将造成累计雨量偏大,城乡区域地质灾害、江河洪水、内涝风险升高,需要加强防范。”陈璇表示。Starting at 8 pm on Monday, strong winds and rain swept through Xiangyang, and by 3 pm on Tuesday, the city-wide average rainfall hit 46 millimeters. The municipal flood-control headquarters activated the Level III flood-control emergency response.周一晚间8时起,大风暴雨侵袭襄阳。截至周二下午3时,全市平均降雨量达到46毫米。市防汛指挥部启动防汛Ⅲ级应急响应。Due to heavy rainfall in upstream areas, several rivers and urban drainage ditches have seen water levels rise. By 3 pm on Tuesday, about 10,000 people had been moved to safe areas, including those living along the rivers, according to local authorities.受上游强降雨影响,多条河流、城市排涝沟渠水位上涨。当地部门消息,截至周二15时,约一万名沿河居民转移至安全区域。Fifty-eight reservoirs had exceeded their flood-season limit as of 3 pm on Tuesday with the highest at 0.59 meters, and all below their designed flood level. Their water release gates have been kept fully open to drain water and bring reservoir levels down.截至周二下午3时,58座水库水位超汛限水位,最高超出0.59米,但全部尚未到达设计洪水位。水库泄洪闸门全开,持续泄洪以降低水位。Disaster relief materials such as tarpaulin coverings, excavators and sandstone materials have been prepared in advance.篷布、挖掘机、砂石料等救灾物资已提前储备到位。Relying on a digital platform, government workers monitor real-time conditions of major waterlogging-prone spots in downtown areas for quick response. For example, the platform detected water exceeding the safety limit at a culvert on Tuesday morning. Municipal workers were dispatched immediately for on-site handling.工作人员依托数字化平台,实时监控城区重点易涝点位,实现快速处置。例如,平台周二上午监测到一处涵洞积水超限,市政人员立刻赶赴现场处理。Across Hubei province, 27,800 emergency response personnel and 16,400 sets of rescue equipment have been deployed in advance in key areas affected by the typhoon such as Xiangyang, Shiyan, Huanggang and Suizhou.湖北省已在襄阳、十堰、黄冈、随州等台风影响重点区域提前部署27800名应急人员、16400台(套)救援装备。As of Tuesday noon, 25,478 people had been relocated. More than 4,500 tourist attractions, construction sites, factories and mines were closed, according to the provincial flood control and drought relief headquarters on Tuesday afternoon.省防汛抗旱指挥部周二下午通报,截至周二中午,累计转移群众25478人,4500余处景区、建筑工地、厂矿关停。With the rain belt moving further northward, the National Meteorological Center forecasts that from Tuesday to Thursday, the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region in northern China will experience heavy rainfall.随着雨带继续北上,中央气象台预报,周二至周四,华北京津冀地区将迎来强降雨。Beijing activated a Level II flood-control emergency response at 9 am on Tuesday. Most parts of the city are expected to receive more than 100 millimeters of rain within six hours and over 150 mm within 24 hours from Tuesday evening, according to the Beijing meteorological service.北京于周二上午9时启动防汛Ⅱ级应急响应。北京市气象台预报,周二晚间起,北京大部分地区6小时降雨量超100毫米,24小时累计降雨量超150毫米。The public has been advised to suspend outdoor activities involving mountains and water, avoid low-lying areas when traveling, and take protective measures for underground spaces.官方提醒市民暂停涉水、涉山户外活动,出行避开低洼地带,并对地下空间做好防护。The nearby Hebei province issued a meteorological risk alert for mountain-flood disasters at 11 am on Tuesday.邻省河北于周二上午11时发布山洪灾害气象风险预警。At noon the same day, a meteorological early warning for geological hazards was also released, saying that between 2 pm on Tuesday and 2 pm on Wednesday, there is a high risk of collapses, landslides, mud-rock flows and other geological disasters in cities such as Baoding, Zhangjiakou, Handan and Shijiazhuang.同日中午,当地再发布地质灾害气象预警:周二14时至周三14时,保定、张家口、邯郸、石家庄等地发生崩塌、滑坡、泥石流等地质灾害风险较高。Relevant authorities dispatched 623 teams to mountain areas across the province. Focused on densely populated zones, the teams carried out emergency inspections for geological hazards, Hebei Daily reported.《河北日报》消息,相关部门派出623支队伍深入省内山区,重点针对人口密集区域开展地质灾害隐患紧急巡查。Meanwhile, Hebei has equipped all 2,136 villages under threat with satellite phones or Beidou short-message terminals to guarantee unobstructed communications. Evacuation of residents was also in the plan based on conditions, it said.同时,河北为受威胁的2136个村庄配齐卫星电话或北斗短报文终端,保障通信畅通,并根据实际情况安排群众转移。Heavy rain was also forecast across a broad swath of the country through Wednesday night. The areas include Zhejiang, Jiangsu, Anhui, Shandong and Henan provinces.预报显示,截至周三夜间,我国大范围区域仍有强降雨,涉及浙江、江苏、安徽、山东、河南等省份。landslide /ˈlændslaɪd/山体滑坡waterlogging /ˈwɔːtəlɒɡɪŋ/内涝torrential /təˈrenʃl/猛烈的;汹涌的geological /ˌdʒiːəˈlɒdʒɪkl/地质的evacuation /ɪˌvækjuˈeɪʃn/疏散,撤离reservoir /ˈrezəvwɑː(r)/水库

Donald Trump has ordered the heaviest escalation in the US-Iran war so far this week, striking critical Iranian bridges, airports, and infrastructure surrounding the critical Strait of Hormuz chokepoint. Iran has hit back with attacks on the UAE, Qatar and other Gulf states, as well as allegedly targeting US Special Forces outposts in Syria.In today's episode of Iran: The Latest, Sophia Yan and Roland Oliphant break down the overnight news of more kinetic strikes. Plus, Reuters global defence commentator Peter Apps joins the show to analyze how Iranian missiles are leveraging China's encrypted BeiDou-3 satellite system to bypass Western air defenses, why the UAE is secretly bombing Iran, and whether the House of Saud is ready to ditch Washington for Beijing.HighlightsTrump destroys key ports and bridges in sweeping strikesHow China is upgrading Iranian missiles to make them harder to stopCONTRIBUTORS:Roland Oliphant, co-host and chief foreign affairs analyst @RolandOliphantSophia Yan, co-host and senior foreign correspondent @sophia_yanWATCH US ON YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLJnf_DDTfIVAif-vifC6F2aoPB8GIw6dkCONTENT REFERENCED:Burnham plans to sanction Israel set to anger White Househttps://www.telegraph.co.uk/politics/2026/07/15/white-house-warns-burnham-do-not-sanction-israel/Alleged spy charged with helping Iran's secret servicehttps://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2026/07/17/counter-terror-police-charge-spying-iran/Iran's war faces a dangerous new threathttps://www.telegraph.co.uk/world-news/2026/07/15/houthis-plot-to-open-new-front-in-iran-war/ITL Best News and Analysis Podcast - Publisher Podcast Awards 2026The Telegraph Podcast Publisher of the Year 2026 - Publisher Podcast Awards 2026ITL Nominated Podcast of the Year - Society of Editors News Podcasts Awards 2026Producer: Max BowerVideo Producer: Peter ShevlinResearcher and Social Producer: Anna HindmarshStudio Operator: Andy WatsonExecutive Producer: Venetia Rainey ► Sign up to our most popular newsletter, From the Editor.

Derrière le petit point bleu de nos smartphones se cache une infrastructure militaire devenue indispensable à la vie quotidienne. Cet épisode de la série « Tout comprendre » explique comment des satellites, des horloges atomiques et même la relativité d'Einstein permettent de nous localiser à quelques mètres près.– Série « Tout comprendre », avec le soutien de Frogans.En savoir plus sur Frogans : https://www.f2r2.fr Une technologie militaire Utilisé par Google Maps, Apple Plans ou Waze, le GPS paraît aujourd'hui banal. Pourtant, ce système est né pendant la guerre froide pour guider les forces armées américaines, bien avant de trouver sa place dans les voitures puis dans les smartphones.Son histoire remonte au lancement de Spoutnik en 1957. En étudiant l'effet Doppler produit par le signal radio du satellite soviétique, des chercheurs américains comprennent qu'il est possible d'inverser le raisonnement : si la trajectoire d'un satellite est connue, son signal peut servir à déterminer la position d'un récepteur sur Terre.Des satellites qui donnent l'heureLe GPS repose sur une constellation d'au moins 24 satellites situés à plus de 20 000 kilomètres d'altitude. Contrairement à une idée reçue, ils ne nous observent pas et ne reçoivent pas directement notre position : ils diffusent en permanence leur emplacement et l'heure exacte d'émission de leur signal.Le smartphone mesure le temps mis par ce signal pour lui parvenir, puis en déduit la distance qui le sépare du satellite. En combinant les données d'au moins quatre satellites, il calcule sa latitude, sa longitude, son altitude et corrige l'imprécision de sa propre horloge. Cette méthode s'appelle la trilatération.Merci Albert Einstein La précision du système dépend avant tout de la mesure du temps. Une erreur d'une microseconde peut déjà provoquer un décalage d'environ 300 mètres.Les satellites embarquent donc des horloges atomiques extrêmement précises. Le GPS doit également corriger les effets prédits par les théories de la relativité d'Albert Einstein : dans l'espace, la vitesse des satellites et la gravité plus faible modifient légèrement l'écoulement du temps. Sans ces corrections, les erreurs de localisation atteindraient rapidement plusieurs kilomètres.Bien plus qu'un outil de navigationLe GPS ne sert pas seulement à trouver une adresse. Ses signaux horaires synchronisent aussi des réseaux téléphoniques, des infrastructures électriques, des systèmes financiers et de nombreux équipements industriels.Ouvert progressivement aux usages civils, il devient pleinement opérationnel en 1995. En mai 2000, les États-Unis mettent fin à la dégradation volontaire du signal civil, ce qui améliore fortement sa précision et accélère sa diffusion dans les transports, l'agriculture et les appareils mobiles.Le mot « GPS » désigne en réalité le système américain. D'autres constellations existent, notamment GLONASS en Russie, BeiDou en Chine et Galileo en Europe, un système placé sous contrôle civil.Une infrastructure invisible et vulnérableDans les smartphones, les signaux satellitaires sont complétés par les antennes mobiles, le Wi-Fi, le Bluetooth, la boussole et les capteurs de mouvement. La précision peut néanmoins se dégrader entre de hauts immeubles, sous un tunnel, dans un parking ou lorsque les signaux sont volontairement brouillés.Le jamming consiste à empêcher la réception du signal, tandis que le spoofing diffuse de fausses informations pour tromper les appareils. Notre navigation quotidienne dépend ainsi d'une infrastructure invisible, puissante, mais qui peut aussi être perturbée.Hébergé par Audiomeans.

In this episode, Ray Cochrane leads with GitHub’s worst reliability month on record and the AI infrastructure pressure behind it. He also covers Warp going open source, Apple’s Mac supply crunch, OpenAI’s goblin tic, the first 1X humanoid factory in the US, Tesla’s Semi finally hitting mass production, Chinese EVs with movie-projecting headlights, the final GPS III satellite, and a quantum researcher who won 1 Bitcoin. – Want to start a podcast?

Support my Show Sponsor: Best Godaddy Promo Codes Get 1Password Full Summary Cochrane opens the show with one of the biggest infrastructure stories of the year. GitHub is buckling under unprecedented agentic load, and the world’s largest code host just had its worst reliability month on record. Furthermore, the broader episode threads a clear pattern: AI demand is reshaping infrastructure, hardware supply, and developer tooling in ways the industry did not see coming. GitHub’s Worst Reliability Month on Record GitHub CTO Vlad Fedorov posted an apology on the company blog this week. He acknowledged the platform’s recent failures and committed to a new priority order: availability first, then capacity, then features. Meanwhile, an April 23 merge queue regression silently produced wrong squash commits across 658 repositories and over 2,000 pull requests. Additionally, an Elasticsearch cluster crashed on April 27 after a botnet attack, and GitHub Actions went down on April 28. Outside reconstructions put April uptime under 85 percent. However, GitHub’s own status page stays in the 99 percent range because it does not count degraded performance as downtime. Cochrane notes that GitHub originally planned a 10x capacity increase and has now revised that to 30x in eight months. Mitchell Hashimoto, GitHub user 1299 since 2008, also announced he is pulling his Ghostty terminal off the platform entirely. Warp Terminal Goes Open Source Under AGPL Warp open-sourced its AI-first terminal client this week under the AGPL license. Their contribution model leans heavily on agents handling code, planning, and testing while humans focus on direction and verification. However, Cochrane pushes back on that framing. He argues the recent GitHub problems show that human approval alone is not enough oversight for agent-driven workflows. Additionally, he notes that the more hands-off developers get, the less they can mentally model their own systems. Apple Caught Flat-Footed by Local AI Demand Tim Cook told Wall Street on the Q2 FY2026 earnings call that Mac mini and Mac Studio supply will be constrained for several months. Both machines turned out to be popular local AI workstations, which Apple did not predict. Consequently, Apple discontinued the 512GB Mac Studio upgrade in early March and raised the 256GB upgrade by $400. Some upgraded configurations now show 4 to 5 month delivery estimates. Cochrane connects the demand spike to the OpenClaw wave and his own recent OpenClaw scare, where his install started making suspicious outbound requests. Furthermore, he is in no rush to lean into local agentic tooling given the constant prompt injection and security issues in the space. OpenAI Explains the Goblin Obsession After GPT-5.1 launched, ChatGPT users noticed the model could not stop saying “goblin.” OpenAI traced the bias to the optional Nerdy personality, which was 2.5 percent of all responses but produced 66.7 percent of all goblin mentions. The reward signal during personality training quietly favored creature metaphors. Then the bias leaked into the rest of the model through later supervised fine-tuning. OpenAI retired Nerdy in March, filtered creature words from training data, and added an explicit Codex system prompt rule: never talk about goblins, gremlins, raccoons, trolls, ogres, or pigeons. Cochrane frames this as the beauty and disaster of pattern matching. Additionally, he notes that LLM behavior is not editable like static code; it can only be patched, and the patches stack up over time.

The Norway-founded, OpenAI-backed company is calling it America’s first vertically integrated humanoid factory. Their goal: 10,000 NEO home humanoids in year one, with a 100,000 unit target by end of 2027. Furthermore, the first 10,000 unit allocation reportedly sold out in five days when pre-orders opened in October. NEO sells for $20,000 outright or $499 per month. Cochrane is skeptical that humanoids solve a real problem for the average household. However, he sees genuine potential for elderly and disabled users. Additionally, he flags privacy and data collection concerns about robots that have to perceive everything in your home. Tesla Semi Rolls Off the High-Volume Line Tesla rolled the first Semi off its 1.7 million square foot factory adjacent to Gigafactory Nevada on April 29. The Long Range version delivers 500 miles at $290,000, while the Standard Range hits 325 miles at $260,000. Additionally, the Long Range supports the 1.2 megawatt Megacharger that restores 60 percent of range in about 30 minutes. The factory targets 50,000 trucks per year, though analysts project 5,000 to 15,000 deliveries in 2026. Cochrane opens with a recent personal experience. He saw a semi truck on the freeway with the entire cabin removed from the engine, an unusual failure mode he had never seen before. Furthermore, he questions the actual environmental benefit of electric trucking given grid sourcing and battery mineral concerns. The reveal was 2017, and high-volume production is now nine years after that announcement. Chinese EVs With Headlights That Project Movies Huawei’s XPixel headlight system can now project full-color movies up to 100 inches in front of the car. The technology debuted in full color on the Aito M9 and is rolling out across Stelato S9, Qijing GT7, and Luxeed V9 MPV. Additionally, the same hardware powers real safety features: adaptive driving beam, lane-change path projection, and pedestrian crossing direction signaling. Meanwhile, US regulations only approved adaptive driving beam in February 2022. Pixel-addressable projection systems are not covered by current FMVSS rules at all. Consequently, even if these cars sold in the US, the headlights would have to be downgraded to be street legal. The Final GPS III Satellite Reaches Orbit SpaceX launched GPS III SV-10, the tenth and final GPS III satellite, on a Falcon 9 from Cape Canaveral on April 21. GPS III delivers signals 3 times more accurate and 8 times more resistant to jamming than the previous constellation. It also adds the L1C signal, which interoperates with Galileo, BeiDou, IRNSS, and QZSS, plus M-code military encryption. Up next, GPS IIIF launches start in 2027 with up to 22 satellites deploying through about 2037. IIIF adds laser inter-satellite links and optical reflectors for centimeter-level satellite tracking. Cochrane loves this kind of quiet infrastructure win that powers global economics without anyone noticing it. Researcher Wins 1 Bitcoin for a Quantum Attack on Crypto Independent Italian researcher Giancarlo Lelli won Project Eleven’s 1 Bitcoin Q-Day Prize on April 24. He derived a 15-bit elliptic curve private key from its public key using a variant of Shor’s algorithm on rented cloud quantum hardware. Furthermore, the previous record was 6 bits, set in September 2025 on an IBM 133-qubit machine, so this extends the record by a factor of 512. However, Bitcoin uses 256-bit elliptic curve cryptography, so real wallets are not at risk yet. Additionally, other researchers have pushed back on the result. Their criticism: a 15-bit search space is only 32,767 possibilities, which a laptop can brute-force in milliseconds. Project Eleven defends the milestone as a stepping stone for demonstrating Shor’s algorithm running end-to-end on real quantum hardware. Gemini Now Generates Real Files Google rolled out file generation for the Gemini app. Users can now generate PDFs, Word docs, Excel spreadsheets, Google Workspace files, CSV, LaTeX, plain text, RTF, and Markdown directly from a chat prompt. Additionally, files can be downloaded to device or exported straight to Google Drive. The feature is globally available to all Gemini app users. Google Illuminate Turns Papers Into Podcasts Google Illuminate is the experimental Labs tool that converts academic papers into roughly five-minute two-voice podcast-style audio. Generation takes about 30 seconds, with a 20-per-day cap and a 30-day library. Additionally, transcripts are interactive and clickable for jumping to specific moments. Cochrane likes it as an index for triaging papers but pushes back on using it to replace deep reading. He argues that real technical material like clustering logic needs a real read, not a summary by AI podcasters. Cochrane closes with show housekeeping and a callout to Pocket Casts and True Fans as solid modern podcast apps. Have a great night, and happy June.

Om kapplöpningen mellan Kina och USA när rymden militariseras. Nu vill Kina skjuta upp tusentals nya satelliter. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. Kina positioner sig i rymden och vill skjuta upp tiotusentals nya satelliter för att bland annat bygga ut ett eget satellitbaserat internet. Kina koordinerar också sina rymdsatsningar med Ryssland och Kina uppges även bygga ut ett allt effektivare system för att kunna slå ut andra länders satelliter. USA är fortfarande den dominerande aktören i rymden, men Kina knapar in och när rymden nu militariseras utmanar Kina USA:s position. Hör också om hur Kina sedan 1970-talet byggt upp ett eget satellitbaserat navigationssystem, Beidou. För några år sedan lanserades systemet globalt och Xi Jinping försöker nu sälja in Kinas system som ett alternativ till amerikanska GPS.Medverkande: Hanna Sahlberg, Kinareporter.

Forget Korean Air 007: GPS was always meant for civilians.What if everything you thought you knew about GPS was wrong? Far from being a secret military tool reluctantly unlocked after tragedy in 1983, GPS was designed with civilian use in mind from the very beginning — and surveyors were using it years before most of us had heard of it.Paul Bavill welcomes writer and researcher Richard Easton, co-author of GPS Declassified: From Smart Bombs to Smartphones. With a unique perspective — his father, Roger Easton, is one of GPS's credited inventors — Richard debunks the biggest misconceptions about GPS and reveals the surprising story of its development.You'll discover:The Civilian Myth: Why GPS was never “military-only” — and who used it first.The Korean Airliner 007 Story: Why the 1983 tragedy did not open GPS to the world.The Lonely Halls Meeting: How the tale of GPS being “invented over a weekend” simply doesn't hold up.Selective Availability: Why the US government deliberately degraded civilian signals — and why that ended.The Bigger Picture: How GPS fits into a global system alongside GLONASS, Galileo, and Beidou.Join us for a myth-busting conversation that rewrites the story of GPS, replacing legends with the truth of politics, persistence, and surprising civilian allies. To dive deeper, grab Richard's book GPS Declassified: From Smart Bombs to Smartphones.
The 25th Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) Summit wasn't just a meeting; it was the unveiling of a strategy. Hosted by Xi Jinping, the summit served as a calculated demonstration of Sino-Russian convening power. More importantly, it marked a concrete effort to operationalize an alternative, multipolar system designed explicitly to bypass Western economic and technological architectures.We just witnessed a significant inflection point in the global strategic competition. The rhetoric in Tianjin was overtly adversarial, with Xi Jinping denouncing "bullying behavior" and a "Cold War mentality." But beyond the rhetoric, the summit launched China's Global Governance Initiative (GGI), formalized commitments to building parallel financial infrastructure, and featured a strategically significant—and complex—détente between China and India.To break down the implications of this pivotal gathering, SCSP's President and CEO Ylli Bajraktari sat down with colleagues David Lin (China/East Asia/Tech), Joe Wang (Russia/Europe), and Sameer Lalwani (U.S.-India Defense) for an immediate assessment.The Propaganda Coup and Autocratic Convening PowerThe immediate takeaway from the summit was the sheer spectacle. Xi positioned himself at the center of the largest gathering in the organization's history, flanked by Vladimir Putin and, significantly, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi.The timing was deliberate. As David Lin noted, it was a "big week for Xi." The SCO meeting was strategically sandwiched between the first-ever public meeting of Putin, Kim Jong Un, and Xi, and a massive World War II anniversary parade in Beijing featuring thousands of troops and military hardware."It's a huge propaganda win for Beijing," Lin observed. "It gives Xi an opportunity to promote itself as being this global convener," while simultaneously pushing a tech-focused agenda.For Vladimir Putin, the summit was essential for mitigating diplomatic isolation and promoting the SCO as an alternative to NATO."Look at the past couple of weeks of Putin... he's going to be riding high right now," said Joe Wang. While few concrete deals may have materialized immediately that changed the dynamics in Ukraine, the optics were invaluable. "Being seen with President Xi, being seen with Modi... it's like Russia's back. For him, it's a great PR coup."The Architecture of a New Techno-Economic OrderThe summit demonstrated that the SCO is evolving from a regional security forum into the primary vehicle for the PRC to consolidate a bloc resistant to U.S. influence. We are witnessing the acceleration of a bifurcated world, characterized not just by differing political ideologies, but by competing technological ecosystems and financial systems.1. The Export of Digital AuthoritarianismXi formally introduced the Global Governance Initiative (GGI). While promoting "sovereign equality," the GGI is, in practice, a strategic blueprint to legitimize digital sovereignty—the right of states to control domestic information ecosystems, data flows, and technological infrastructure without adherence to democratic norms.The SCO's endorsement provides an institutional foundation for the PRC to export its model of techno-authoritarian control. This isn't just theoretical."At the SCO in particular, China was trying to push a lot of its techno-political agenda," David Lin emphasized. This included announcements that Beijing wants to set up S&T cooperation centers, an “AI application cooperation center,” launch joint solar and wind projects, and push Beidou, its alternative to GPS, across the SCO member states. Taken together, this could directly challenge the open, interoperable architecture championed by the U.S. and its allies, moving toward a fractured, PRC-controlled digital ecosystem across Eurasia.2. Accelerating Financial De-CouplingThe most concrete outcome was the political decision to fast-track the establishment of an SCO Development Bank, seeded with significant Chinese capital. This mechanism, coupled with agreements to expand the use of local currencies for intra-SCO trade, is explicitly designed to circumvent the SWIFT system and erode the efficacy of U.S. financial sanctions.This coordinated effort directly challenges the foundation of U.S. economic statecraft by building a resilient, alternative financial architecture among major energy producers (Russia, Iran) and the world's largest manufacturer (China).The India Factor: A Strategic RecalibrationThe most significant geopolitical development, and the one that caused the most consternation in Washington, was the visible rapprochement between Xi Jinping and Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi—Modi's first visit to China in seven years."For a lot of US-India relationship watchers, Prime Minister Modi's visit to Beijing and attending this meeting came as a big surprise. It was a shock," Ylli Bajraktari noted.How should the U.S. interpret this move by a critical Quad partner?"Honestly, I think this was inevitable in some ways. India has been rebalancing," explained Sameer Lalwani. India has always professed itself to be a multi-aligned country, but recent U.S. actions also played a significant role. "The elephant in the room is, the United States has been pushing India around a little bit more... in terms of tariffs, additional tariffs because of Russian oil."Lalwani argued that India was "demonstrating they had some options." However, this does not signal a fundamental shift. "It shouldn't be lost on us that before India went to this, they stopped in Japan first." Furthermore, Modi notably absented himself from the military parade, signaling nuance in his engagement—he would participate in the SCO, but not the military spectacle.The underlying strategic realities also remain unchanged."India has a border with China that's still disputed, and China continues to coerce India... [and] China armed, trained and wired the weapons that Pakistan used to fight India" in a recent conflict. — Sameer Lalwani"I don't think that's forgotten for India," Lalwani added. The U.S.-India defense relationship remains a strong ballast, pointing to ongoing joint exercises (like Yudh Abhyas currently underway in Alaska) and India's reliance on U.S. platforms for maritime reconnaissance.The Limits of the Axis (And Why We Can't Ignore It)While the summit projected unity, the SCSP analysts urged a nuanced view of the underlying relationships."It is important to remember that a lot of this is perhaps only skin deep," David Lin cautioned, pointing to the recent history of violent border clashes between China and India, and the tight spot Beijing was put in by Russia's invasion of Ukraine.Yet, dismissing the SCO would be a strategic error. The organization has evolved significantly."I remember I was in grad school when [the SCO] first came up... we all kind of jokingly just laughed it off," Joe Wang recalled. "Fast forward 15, 20 years and see where it is now... Things don't just happen overnight."While the "bromance between Putin and Xi" is undeniable, the integration is not comparable to U.S. alliances like NATO or the U.S.-Japan relationship. "There's still a level of distrust that I think we need to be mindful about," Wang noted.The trap is assuming this alignment is already solidified, while simultaneously failing to plan for the contingency that it might be. "If you're in the US government, you don't have the luxury of not taking a lot of these statements at face value," Wang said. "We need to plan ahead."The U.S. Response: Competing in the Gray ZoneThe 2025 SCO Summit confirms that the organization is the leading edge of China's campaign to fracture the global order. How should the United States respond?1. Offer a Compelling Alternative Tech Stack. "One of the lowest hanging fruit things the U.S. should do is show that there is an alternative to this," David Lin argued. As the SCO bloc develops internal capacities and indigenous technology standards, the U.S. must demonstrate there is a viable, democratic alternative to the "China tech stack" that Beijing is actively exporting.2. Master the Game of Global Diplomacy. The U.S. must regain its strategic agility and relearn how to operate in a complex world. "After the Cold War, one of the things that America stopped doing well was play the game of global diplomacy," Joe Wang argued. The U.S. has often viewed the world in black-and-white terms, assuming its preeminence was undisputed."We've lost that strategic foresight and ability to be nimble and operate in this sort of gray zone... We need to see the world for being the gray zone that it is." — Joe WangThis means avoiding the trap of reacting to events like Modi's visit by assuming allegiances have permanently shifted—"Oh my God, Modi is in China. Therefore it must mean that he's now on their side"—while still applying pressure and offering incentives to keep partners aligned.3. Double Down on Real Alliances. The U.S. must emphasize the depth of its own partnerships, which Lin noted "runs so much deeper" than the transactional relationships within the SCO.For India specifically, Sameer Lalwani urged action over reaction. "I don't think there's any need to overreact to cheap talk." Instead, the U.S. bureaucracy needs to move faster on concrete deliverables, and Congress should confirm key diplomatic nominees. "When India says it wants to buy Javelin missiles and it's ready to do so, I don't want that to get stalled in a process when we need the political wins now."The competition is no longer just between the U.S. and China; it is between the U.S.-led democratic order and a sophisticated, resource-rich, PRC-led coalition. The Tianjin Summit is a clear signal that this coalition is moving from rhetoric to action. The U.S. must do the same. This is a public episode.

The year 2025 marks the 10th anniversary of China's Digital Silk Road, which has become an increasingly crucial component of Xi Jinping's flagship foreign policy project: the Belt and Road Initiative. Over the past decade, China has massively expanded its digital infrastructure investment across the globe. Accompanying the investment has been the diffusion of China's digital governance norms and standards in recipient states. Countries in the Indo-Pacific have been at the forefront of this stretching Chinese digital influence landscape. The conflation between digital development cooperation and digital governance norms adoption has far-reaching implications that need to be better understood and addressed. To discuss the issue, Michael Caster joins host Bonnie Glaser. Caster is the Head of Global China Programmeat ARTICLE 19, an NGO that advances freedom of opinion and expression. His organization has published two reports examining China's Digital Silk Road.

In un'epoca in cui la connettività e la geolocalizzazione sono diventate elementi imprescindibili della quotidianità, i Sistemi di Navigazione Satellitare Globale, o più semplicemente GNSS, rappresentano un'infrastruttura tecnologica strategica senza la quale molti servizi non potrebbero esistere e aiutarci nelle attività di tutti i giorni. Ci basti pensare che dietro il semplice gesto di consultare un'app di navigazione o di ricevere un pacco acquistato online si nasconde una vastissima rete di satelliti in perfetta sinergia tra di loro che fornisce istantaneamente dati di posizionamento estremamente precisi. Ma che cosa sono i GNSS e qual è la differenza con il GPS di cui sentiamo parlare tutti i giorni? In questa puntata proviamo a capirlo.Nella sezione delle notizie parliamo dei nuovi Tutor 3.0 autostradali, dello studio del CNR per trasformare la luce in un solido e infine della missione delle sonde spaziali Voyager e di come la NASA stia cercando di allungare il più possibile la sua durata.--Indice--00:00 - Introduzione00:57 - Tutor 3.0 come deterrente più preciso in autostrada (DMove.it, Davide Fasoli)02:12 - La luce è stata trasformata in un solido (HDBlog.it, Luca Martinelli)03:20 - La NASA prolunga la missione delle Voyager (DDay.it, Matteo Gallo)05:12 - Il dualismo dei GNSS tra applicazioni civili e militari (Matteo Gallo)18:24 - Conclusione--Contatti--• www.dentrolatecnologia.it• Instagram (@dentrolatecnologia)• Telegram (@dentrolatecnologia)• YouTube (@dentrolatecnologia)• redazione@dentrolatecnologia.it--Immagini--• Foto copertina: ESA - P.

Ad Astra Travelers and welcome to Tales of Teyvat: A Genshin Lore Podcast. This week we're hitting the high seas as we discuss Liyue's number one captain, Beidou! After discussing the recent dealings of the Twink Tank, our hosts rewind into Beidou's past to discuss her traumatic childhood. What kid doesn't love being an orphan? A bad omen? Run out of a town? Definitely not Beidou! After a quick recap of all that trauma, we go to The Crux, home of the one true therapist in all of Teyvat, which is probably much needed for Beidou after all that childhood misery. Our hosts discover, though, that Beidou doesn't let anything keep her down and that she's been able to make quite a name for herself in Liyue and across Teyvat. We'll discuss her relationship with Ningguang, access to ports across Teyvat and the strength she showcases each day that makes her a role model for children everywhere. Not to mention, our hosts will discuss her love of drinking, life changing fight with the sea monster Haishan and her love of the sea.

El Honor 300 Pro promete diseño, potencia y conectividad mejorada ¿Un teléfono que mezcla lo mejor de la gama alta con opciones más accesibles? Eso es lo que parece traer el Honor 300 Pro.Escucha Flash Diario en Spotify.Filtraciones recientes sugieren que este modelo va a incluir una pantalla curva con resolución 1.5K, un procesador Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 y carga rápida de 100W. Pero eso no es todo: este smartphone podría ser de los primeros de su segmento en integrar mensajería satelital Beidou, ideal para enviar mensajes en zonas sin cobertura. Todo apunta a que la serie 300 se lanzará antes de fin de año, pero, ¿puede este dispositivo realmente competir contra los gigantes del mercado? ¿Y si tu próximo teléfono pudiera redefinir la experiencia visual y de conectividad? Honor quiere demostrar que no hace falta gastar una fortuna para tener un teléfono que lo tenga todo. La serie 300, liderada por el modelo Pro, promete ser un salto importante respecto a la generación anterior. Según las certificaciones más recientes, habrá cuatro versiones: estándar, Pro y posiblemente una Pro+. Las filtraciones en redes sociales como Weibo ya han mostrado imágenes del diseño del Honor 300 Pro, con un módulo de cámaras único y elegante, que alberga sensores de hasta 50 MP. Además, el modelo Pro parece estar apostando fuerte por la autonomía, con una batería de 5,300 mAh, y por las funciones inteligentes, como su lector de huellas ultrasónico y conectividad NFC. La conectividad es un tema crítico en los smartphones. Aunque la mayoría de las marcas compiten por ofrecer mejores cámaras o procesadores, pocos abordan el problema de quedarse sin señal en zonas alejadas. Esto puede ser un gran inconveniente para quienes viven en áreas rurales, trabajan al aire libre o simplemente aman la aventura. Con la mensajería satelital Beidou, el Honor 300 Pro busca llenar ese vacío, permitiéndote enviar mensajes aunque no tengas cobertura. Es una solución innovadora, pero plantea preguntas: ¿cómo funcionará en la práctica? ¿Qué tan accesible será para los usuarios promedio? Además, competir en este segmento requiere algo más que funciones destacadas; el precio y la experiencia general del dispositivo serán determinantes. El Honor 300 Pro no solo apunta a ser un teléfono innovador por su conectividad, sino también por su pantalla. Cuando hablamos de una resolución 1.5K, nos referimos a algo intermedio entre Full HD+ (1080p) y 2K (1440p). Esto significa imágenes más nítidas y detalladas, especialmente en pantallas de tamaño mediano, como las de los smartphones. En el caso del Honor 300 Pro, esta mejora, junto con su panel curvo, promete una experiencia visual inmersiva para disfrutar de contenidos multimedia o juegos. Si sumamos esto a su potente procesador Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, la carga rápida de 100W y el diseño premium, este modelo podría redefinir lo que esperamos de un smartphone de gama media-alta. El lanzamiento del Honor 300 Pro podría marcar un cambio en cómo percibimos los smartphones de gama media-alta. Tradicionalmente, estos dispositivos han sido una especie de "tierra de nadie": demasiado caros para ser económicos, pero sin las prestaciones necesarias para competir con la gama alta. Honor parece estar redefiniendo este espacio, ofreciendo un teléfono que combina diseño premium, especificaciones potentes y funciones únicas como la mensajería satelital. Además, la pantalla 1.5K podría atraer a usuarios que priorizan la calidad visual sin necesidad de pagar por un dispositivo 2K o 4K. Si el Honor 300 Pro logra un equilibrio entre precio y calidad, podría ser un referente en su categoría y presionar a otras marcas a mejorar sus ofertas. El Honor 300 Pro es más que un teléfono bonito: promete ser una herramienta útil para el día a día, con potencia, diseño y funciones como la mensajería satelital y una pantalla 1.5K que mejora la experiencia visual. Su éxito dependerá de cómo Honor maneje su lanzamiento y precio. ¿Qué opinas de esta combinación de innovación y accesibilidad?

It delves into the implications of geofencing and the data gathered by autonomous vehicles, raising questions about the extent of control and surveillance in modern logistics. With a nod to the film Enemy of the State, the episode leaves viewers pondering the true power of a map in the wrong hands.
Astronomy AstroDailyPod - The Podcast: 23rd September 2024Welcome to another episode of Astronomy AstroDailyPod, your ultimate source for the latest Space and Astronomy news. I'm your host, Steve Dunkley, and today we have a fascinating lineup of stories from the Astronomy AstroDailyPod newsletter. From insights into Jupiter's Great Red Spot and moonquakes, to China's latest satellite launch and discoveries at the edge of the solar system, we've got it all covered. Let's dive in!Highlights:- Jupiter's Great Red Spot: A new study suggests that Jupiter's iconic Great Red Spot, visible for at least 190 years, is not the same one observed by astronomer Giovanni Domenico Cassini in 1665. The current spot likely formed from an instability in Jupiter's atmospheric winds, creating a persistent atmospheric cell. This research, published in Geophysical Research Letters, used historical observations and numerical models to explore the longevity and nature of this massive atmospheric vortex.- China's Satellite Launch: China successfully launched two new satellites as part of its Buddy navigation satellite system. Carried by a Long March 3B rocket from the Xichang Satellite Launch Centre, these satellites are equipped with upgraded atomic clock systems and new inter-satellite data links. The Buddy network, China's largest civilian satellite system, now has over 50 active satellites, providing global positioning and navigation services.- Moonquakes and Lunar Exploration: As NASA prepares for more missions to the lunar surface, new research indicates that potential landing sites at the moon's south pole might be susceptible to quakes and landslides. The study, based on data from Apollo-era seismometers, highlights the need for lunar design criteria to address these seismic hazards. The findings could influence the planning and construction of habitats and infrastructure on the moon.- Kuiper Belt Discoveries: NASA's New Horizons Kuiper Belt search Timms reports the detection of an unexpected population of distant bodies in the Kuiper Belt, stretching almost 90 times as far from the sun as Earth. This discovery suggests that the Kuiper Belt may be larger than previously thought or that there is a second Kuiper Belt beyond the one discovered in the 1990s. The findings could challenge current models of the solar system's formation.- NASA's Lunar Navigation Challenge: NASA is seeking innovative solutions to help Artemis astronauts navigate the lunar south pole. The Lunar Navigation Challenge invites individuals and teams to design a low-tech backup navigational device for astronauts and creative solutions for mapping the bottom of Shackleton Crater. The challenge aims to address the unique orienteering difficulties posed by the lunar south pole's extreme light and shadows.For more Space news, be sure to visit our website at astronomydaily.io.

The first drone delivery service guided by China's Beidou Navigation Satellite System has begun operations in Zhuzhou, Hunan province, offering local residents a glimpse into a futuristic, fast-paced delivery system.湖南省株洲市的第一批无人机运送服务已经投入使用,该服务由中国北斗导航卫星系统领航,为当地居民提供了一种具有未来感、高速度的运输系统。On Tuesday, drones departed from the Zhuzhou "Beidou+drone" low-altitude flying service center to deliver packages to an SF Express center about 4 kilometers away in just a few minutes. The drones flew at an altitude of around 200 meters.8月13日,无人机群从株洲市“北斗+无人机”低空飞行服务中心启航,向4千米外的顺丰速运中心运输货物,几分钟内便抵达了目的地。该机群的飞行海拔在200米左右。 Operated by Phoenix Technology, a subsidiary of SF Express and Zhuzhou Geckor Group, the service aims to significantly reduce delivery times. According to You Yang, sales director at Phoenix Technology, traditional road transportation would take at least 20 minutes. Drones, bypassing traffic and red lights, reduce that time by up to 70 percent.该配送服务由顺丰速运和株洲高科集团的子公司凤凰汇通运营,致力于大幅缩短货物的配送时间。据凤凰汇通销售经理杨友(音)称,传统的公路运输至少需要20分钟,而无人机能绕过车流和红灯,可节省多达70%的配送时间。 "Drones are particularly useful for making emergency deliveries, carrying high-value items or reaching remote locations," You said.杨友(音)说:“在进行紧急递送、运送贵重物品和长距离运输时,无人机的优势尤为明显”。 Current costs for a single delivery range from 70 to 80 yuan ($9.78 to $11.17). With drones capable of carrying 50 to 100 packages, the service could become profitable, but for now, subsidies from local governments and enterprises help cover costs.目前,单次配送的价格从70元到80元不等($9.78到$11.17),无人机能运载50到100个包裹,这将是一个能够创造收益的服务,不过现在还需要当地政府和企业进行补贴以弥补成本。 The center operates five routes for delivering medical supplies, everyday goods, agricultural products and emergency equipment, as well as performing waterway inspections. An additional seven routes have been approved for future use.该中心已有五条路线处于运营状态,分别用于配送医疗用品、日常用品、农产品、应急设备,以及进行水路检查。另外七条路线已获准,将在未来投入使用。 The drones used in Tuesday's launch are about 2 meters wide, with a maximum payload of 10 kilograms and a flight speed of 50 km per hour. The center also utilizes various other drone models capable of carrying between half a kilogramto 50 kg and flying distances from 10 km to 120 km.8月13日发布的无人机有2米宽,最高载货量为10千克,飞行速度达50千米/时,该中心还使用了许多载货量在0.5kg到50kg,飞行距离在10km至120km之间的无人机模型。The first company in China to receive a license for drone delivery, Phoenix Technology had opened 215 routes by the end of last year, transporting nearly 3 million packages weighing a total of 15 million metric tons. Drone deliveries are now routine in Shenzhen, Guangdong province, with 300 to 400 flights a day, but they are guided by GPS rather than Beidou.凤凰汇通是中国第一家取得无人机配送营业执照的公司,截止去年底,该公司已开放了215条运输路线,运输了总重1500万公吨的近300万件包裹。无人机配送在深圳已成为平常,每天能有300到400单业务,不过他们使用的是GPS而不是北斗导航。 Zhuzhou, a key hub for Beidou technology and low-altitude economic development, provides an ideal base for advancing homegrown drone delivery services. Tang Zhibin, a local resident, expressed excitement about the new technology and its potential convenience.株洲作为北斗科技和低空经济发展的关键枢纽,为先进的本土无人机配送服务提供了一个理想的发展环境。当地居民唐志斌(音)对这一新兴科技和其带来的潜在便利表达了激动的心情。Zhou Jin, another onlooker, said he was "blown away" by the sight of the drones.另一位居民周瑾(音)表示,他曾为无人机配送的景象所惊叹。"They're much larger than the drones I've used for photography and remind me of something from Hollywood sci-fi movies," he said.他说:“这种无人机比平时用来摄像的那些大多了,这让我想起了好莱坞的科幻电影中的景象”。 While China's drone technology is considered among the world's best, Zhou said more regulation will be necessary to ensure safety as drone usage becomes more widespread.周瑾(音)表示,尽管中国的无人机技术堪称世界第一,但随着无人机的应用逐步推广,将需要更多的监管措施以保障使用安全。Dronen.无人机Payload n.有效载荷Metric tonsn.公吨(一千公斤)
Occhi puntati al cielo per la notte di San Lorenzo alla ricerca di stelle cadenti. Ma è importante ricordare che lo spazio non è solo un luogo di stelle e pianeti, ma anche di satelliti artificiali che svolgono un ruolo cruciale per il mondo dei trasporti.In questa puntata di Container, Massimo De Donato ne parla con Marco Lisi, membro del cda dell’ASI, Agenzia Spaziale Italiana.Sistemi come GPS, GLONASS, BeiDou e l’europeo Galileo forniscono dati di posizionamento precisi che, integrati con altre tecnologie, hanno rivoluzionato il settore dei trasporti. Galileo in particolare garantisce una precisione altissima e un posizionamento su scala decimetrica.Grazie ai satelliti è possibile ottimizzare i percorsi, riducendo consumi di carburante ed emissioni inquinanti; gestire le flotte, monitorando in tempo reale la posizione dei veicoli e pianificando le attività; aumentare la sicurezza.
I denne episoden;GPS er et globalt navigasjons-satellittsystem som bruker satellitter for å triangulere posisjonen din.Det finnes forskjellige satellittsystemer som GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, Beidou og QZSS, som kan brukes av forskjellige enheter.Det er viktig å velge en enhet som støtter de nødvendige satellittsystemene for det området du skal bruke den i.Det er også viktig å ha backup-systemer og være klar over begrensningene til GPS og andre navigasjonssystemer.Det finnes forskjellige kartleverandører som Garmin, TomTom, Google Maps og Apple Maps, som bruker forskjellige kartgrunnlag og har ulike funksjoner. Det finnes mange ulike programvare og verktøy for ruteplanlegging og navigasjonNoen populære alternativer inkluderer Google Maps, Garmin GPS, Guru Maps, Osmand og Drive Mode DashboardDet kan være nyttig å bruke flere forskjellige verktøy og kombinere informasjon fra ulike kilderDet er viktig å være oppmerksom på lokale regler og restriksjoner når man kjører på grusveier i utlandet Det finnes flere apper og verktøy for navigasjon og opprettelse av roadbooks, inkludert Guru Maps, Go Ride, Piste, og Stegra.Noen av disse appene tilbyr funksjoner som opptaksmuligheter, lagring av ruter, og valg av kartgrunnlag.Det er mulig å dele og distribuere roadbooks ved hjelp av apper som Piste og Roadbook Rally.En helhetlig løsning som kombinerer flere funksjoner, som Stegra, kan være mer praktisk og effektiv for brukerne.Thor har bidratt til oversettelse og utvikling av noen av disse verktøyene, og anbefaler dem for norske brukere. Det finnes ulike typer enheter som kan brukes til roadbooks og rally, inkludert robuste telefoner og spesialbygde enheter.Lysstyrken på skjermen er viktig for å kunne se informasjonen tydelig, spesielt i sollys.Noen motorsykler har svake USB-tilkoblinger, noe som kan gjøre det utfordrende å holde en skjerm i drift.Bruk av 12-volts strøm direkte fra sykkelen til å drive en tablet gir en ekstra redundans og eliminerer behovet for batteritemperatur for lagring. Det finnes ulike braketter og holdere som kan brukes til å montere utstyr på motorsykler.Det er viktig å velge riktig materiale og sørge for at monteringen er sikker.Fjernkontroller kan være nyttige for å styre ulike funksjoner på motorsykkelen, som skrolling i roadbooks.Det finnes forskjellige typer fjernkontroller tilgjengelig på markedet, og det er viktig å velge en som passer til ens behov.Sikkerhet og beredskap er viktige faktorer å vurdere når man bruker navigasjonsverktøy på motorsykler.Det finnes ulike alternativer for sporingsenheter og kommunikasjonssystemer som kan bidra til økt sikkerhet under turer.Apper og linker;Del 1 Teknologien bak navigasjonGNSSGNSS er en fellesbetegnelse for satellittbaserte systemer for navigasjon og posisjonering med global dekning.Prisippet benytter en mottaker som via signaler mottatt fra 4 satelitter beregner sin egen posisjon i relasjon til jordens senterpunkt.Hvis høyde over havet er kjent, kan det holde med tre satelitter.- GPS (Amerikansk) 38/32 operative satelitter, planlagt med 22 opertive i neste versjon.- Glonass (Russisk) 26/24 satelitter- Galileo (Europeisk)- Beidou (kinesisk)- QZSS (Michibiki) 4 satelitter operative, skal bli 11.

På kort tid har tiotusentals flygplan på väg över Östersjön plötsligt förlorat sin GPS-signal. Allt pekar mot att Ryssland ligger bakom. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. I mars i år ska två små flygplan flyga från Gdansk i Polen till Kalmar i Sverige. Allt ser bra ut inför avfärd men snart störs GPS:en.– Det märks tydligt med varningsflaggor som kommer upp på skärmarna, en stor text: No GPS signal. Och vi kan inte längre följa nålen som piloten tittar på, säger Henrik Edshammar som är pilot och flyginstruktör.Båda planen har råkat ut för samma sak och de är inte ensamma, sedan december 2023 har minst 50 000 GPS-störningar i Östersjöområdet registrerats.– Jag skulle vilja karaktärisera det här som en form av icke-väpnad aggression, säger Jörgen Elfving, överstelöjtnant som ägnat sig åt Sovjet och Ryssland under stora delar av sin militära karriär men som nu är pensionär. Analyser pekar mot RysslandDet finns många sätt att spåra var störningarna kommer ifrån, och mycket pekar mot att en stor del orkestreras från Ryssland.– Man har bland annat sett särskilt koncentrerade områden dels i Kaliningrad men även strax utanför Sankt Petersburg, säger Maria Engqvist som är analytiker i Rysslandsprojektet på Totalförsvarets forskningsinstitut FOI.Området som drabbas av störningar är stort och för att lyckas med en så stor geografisk spridning behövs rejäl teknisk utrustning. Även det gör att mycket pekar mot att en statsaktör ligger bakom GPS-störningarna och ägnar sig åt telekrig.– Det är den rimliga slutsatsen på grund av vad som krävs av den tekniska utrustningen för att generera ett sådant stort störområde. I teorin kan en privatperson göra det, men den utrustningen skulle ju bli väldigt stor och lätt att lokalisera, säger Fredrik Eklöf som är expert på globala navigationssystem och som forskar på totalförsvarets forskningsinstitut FOI.Det finns fyra globala navigationssystem som fungerar tillsammans. Tillsammans benämns de GNSS. Det amerikanska heter GPS, Kinas heter Beidou, BDS, Rysslands Glonass och inom EU finns Galileo. Galileo utvecklar även nya satelliter med bättre kapacitet för att till exempel stå emot sabotage som jamming där signaler störs ut och spoofing där signalen manipuleras att vilseleda.Medverkande:Henrik Edshammar, pilot och flyginstruktör.Fredrik Eklöf ,expert på globala navigationssystem, forskare på totalförsvarets forskningsinstitut FOI.Maria Engqvist, analytiker i Rysslandsprojektet på Totalförsvarets forskningsinstitut FOI.

This week we talk about APT28, spoofing, and hybrid warfare.We also discuss the Baltics, Tartu airport, and hacking.Recommended Book: The Middle Passage by James HollisTranscriptIn early May of 2024, the German government formally blamed a Russian hacking group called APT28 for hacking members of the governing German Social Democratic Party in 2023, and warned of unnamed consequences.Those consequences may apply just to APT28, which is also sometimes called "Fancy Bear," or they may apply to the Russian government, as like many Russia-based hacking groups, APT28 often operates hand-in-glove with the Russian military intelligence service, which allows the Russian government to deny involvement in all sorts of attacks on all sorts of targets, while covertly funding and directing the actions of these groups.APT28 reportedly also launched attacks against German defense, aerospace, and information technology companies, alongside other business entities and agencies involved, even tangentially, with Ukraine and its defense measures against Russia's invasion.This hacking effort allegedly began in early 2022, shortly after Russia began its full-scale invasion of Ukraine, and the head of the Russian embassy in Germany has been summoned to account for these accusations—though based on prior attacks and allegations related to them by Russia's intelligence agencies, and the hacking groups it uses as proxies, that summoning is unlikely to result in anything beyond a demonstration of anger on the part of the German government, formally registered with Russia's representative in Berlin.For its part, Russia's government has said that it was in no way involved in any incidents of the kind the German government describes, though Germany's government seems pretty confident in their assessment on this, at this point, having waited a fair while to make this accusation, and utilizing its partnerships with the US, UK, Canada, and New Zealand to confirm attribution.This accusation has been leveled amidst of wave of similar attacks, also allegedly by Russia and its proxies, against other targets in the EU and NATO—including but not limited to the Czech Republic, Lithuania, Poland, Slovakia, and Sweden.Many of these attacks have apparently made use of an at-the-time unknown security flaw in Microsoft software that gave them access to compromised email accounts for long periods of time, allowing them to, among other things, scoop up intelligence reports from folks in the know in these countries, sifting their messages for data that would help Russia's forces in Ukraine.This group, and other Russia GRU, their intelligence service, proxies, have reportedly targeted government and critical infrastructure targets in at least 10 NATO countries since the fourth quarter of 2023, alone, according to analysis by Palo Alto Networks, and experts in this space have said they're concerned these sorts of attacks, while often oriented toward intelligence-gleaning and at times embarrassing their targets, may also be part of a larger effort to weaken and even hobble intelligence, military, and critical infrastructure networks in regional nations, which could, over time, reduce stability in these countries, increase extremism, and possibly prevent them from defending themselves and their neighbors in the event of a more formal attack by Russian forces.What I'd like to talk about today is another sort of attack, allegedly also launched by Russia against their neighbors in this part of the world, but this one a little less well-reported-upon, at this point, despite it potentially being even more broadly impactful.—The Global Positioning System, or GPS, was originally developed in 1973 by the US Department of Defense. Its first satellite was launched in 1978, and its initial, complete constellation of 24 satellites were in orbit and functional in 1993.This satellite network's full functionality was only available to the US military until 2000, when then-President Bill Clinton announced that it would be opened up for civilian use, as well.This allowed aviation and similar industries to start using it on the vehicles and other assets, and normal, everyday people were thenceforth able to buy devices that tapped this network to help them figure out where they were in the world, and get to and from wherever they wanted to go.A high-level explanation of how GPS works is that all of these satellites contain atomic clocks that are incredibly stable and which remain synchronized with each other, all showing the exact same, very precise time. These satellites broadcast signals that indicate what time their clocks currently read.GPS devices, as long as they can connect to the signals broadcast by a few of these satellites, can figure out where they're located by noting the tiny differences in the time between these broadcasts: signals from satellites that are further away will take longer to arrive, and that time difference will be noted by a given device, which then allows it to triangulate a geolocation based on the distance between the device and those several satellites.This is a simple concept that has created in a world in which most personal electronic devices now contain the right hardware and software to tap these satellite signals, compute these distances, and casually place us—via our smartphones, cars, computers, watches, etc—on the world map, in a highly accurate fashion.This type of technology has proven to be so useful that even before it was made available for civilian use, catalyzing the world that we live in today, other governments were already investing in their own satellite networks, most predicated on the same general concept; they wanted to own their own constellation of satellites and technologies, though, just in case, because the GPS network could theoretically be locked down by the US government at some point, and because they wanted to make sure they had their own militarizable version of the tech, should they need it.There are also flaws in the US GPS system that make it less ideal for some use-cases and in some parts of the world, so some GPS copycats fill in the blanks on some of those flaws, while others operate better at some latitudes than vanilla GPS does.All of which brings us to recent troubles that the global aviation industry has had in some parts of the world, related to their flight tracking systems.Most modern aircraft use some kind of global navigation satellite system, which includes GPS, but also Europe's Galileo, Russia's GLONASS, and China's BeiDou, among other competitors.These signals can sometimes be interrupted or made fuzzy by natural phenomena, like solar flares and the weather, and all of these systems have their own peculiarities and flaws, and sometimes the hardware systems they use to lock onto these signals, or the software they use to compute a location based on them, will go haywire for normal, tech-misbehaving reasons.Beginning in the 1990s, though, we began to see electronic countermeasures oriented toward messing with these global navigation satellite system technologies.These technologies, often called satellite navigation deceivers, are used by pretty much every government on the planet, alongside a slew of nongovernment actors that engage in military or terrorist activities, and they operate using a variety of jamming methods, but most common is basically throwing out a bunch of signals that look like GPS or other navigation system signals, and this has the practical effect of rendering these gadgets unusable, because they don't know which signal is legit and which is garbage; a bit like blasting loud noises to keep people from talking to each other, messing with their communication capacity.It's also possible to engage in what's called GPS Spoofing, which means instead of throwing out gobs of garbage signals, you actually send just a few signals that are intended to look legit and to be accepted by, for instance, a plane's GPS device, which then makes the aircraft's navigation systems think the plane is somewhere other than it is—maybe just a little off, maybe on the other side of the planet.Notably, neither of these sorts of attacks are actually that hard to pull off anymore, and it's possible to build a GPS-jamming device at home, if you really want to, though spoofing is a fair bit more difficult. Also worth knowing is that while making your own jammer is absolutely frowned upon by most governments, and it's actually illegal in the US and UK, across most of the world it's kind of a Wild West in this regard, and you can generally get away with making one if you want to, though there's a chance you'd still be arrested if you caused any real trouble with it.And it is possible to cause trouble with these things: most pilots and crew are aware of how these devices work and can watch for their effects, using backup tools to keep tabs on their locations when they need to; but using those backup tools requires a lot more effort and attention, and there's a chance that if they're hit by these issues at a bad moment, when they're distracted by other things, or when they're coming in for a landing or attempting to navigate safely around another aircraft, that could present a dangerous situation.That's why, until May 31, at the minimum, Finnair will no longer be flying to Tartu airport—which is a very small airport in Estonia, but it's home to the Baltic Defense College, which is one of NATO's educational hubs, and losing a daily flight to Tartu (the only daily flight at this particular airport) from Helsinki, will disconnect this area, via plane, at least, from the rest of Europe, which is inconvenient and embarrassing.This daily flight was cancelled because of ongoing disruptions to the airport's GPS system, which was previously an on-and-off sort of thing, but which, since 2022, when Russia launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine, has become a lot worse. And Tartu relies exclusively on GPS for planes landing at the airport, and thus doesn't have another fallback system, if GPS fails at a vital, dangerous moment.This is a running theme throughout the Baltic region, an area populated by now-democratic NATO members that were formerly part of the Soviet Union, and which are considered to be at risk of a Russian invasion or other sort of attack if the invasion of Ukraine goes Russia's way.Almost all aircraft flying through this area have experienced GPS-jamming issues since 2022, and though that Finnair flight is the only one to have been cancelled as a result of all this jamming, so far, there are concerns that this could really scramble travel and shipping in the region, as it's making all flying in the area that much more risky on a continuous basis.Finland's government is framing this jamming as part of a hybrid warfare effort on Russia's part—alongside other hybrid efforts, like bussing migrants to Finland's borders in order to strain national coffers and nudge politics toward reactionary extremes.Some other nations are thinking along the same lines, though there's a chance that, rather than this jamming representing an intentional assault on these neighboring nations, it may actually be something closer to overflow from other, nearby jamming activities: Russia jamming GPS signals in Ukraine, for instance, or the governance of the Kaliningrad region, which is a Russian enclave separated from the rest of Russia and surrounded by Poland and Lithuania, engaging in their own, localized jamming, and those signals are then picked up across national borders, because that's how these signals work—just like sound can travel further than you might intend.It's possible we're seeing a bit of both here, overflow from that huge regional conflict, but also intentional jabs meant to make life more difficult for NATO nations, stressing their systems and costing them money and other resources, while also maybe testing the region's capacity to cope with such GPS disruptions and blackouts in the event of a potential future conflict.Another point worth making here, though, is that we see a lot of this sort of behavior in conflict zones, globally.FlightRadar24 recently introduced a live GPS jamming map to keep track of this sort of thing, and as of the day I'm recording this, alongside these consistent irregularities in the Baltic region, Ukraine, and parts of Eastern Europe, there's jamming occurring in the Middle East, near Israel, throughout Turkey, which has ongoing conflicts with insurgents in the afflicted areas, a portion of Moldova that is attempting to break away with the support of Russia, similar to what happened in Ukraine back in 2014, a northern portion of India where the Indian government has an ongoing conflict with separatists, and in Myanmar, where the military government is embroiled in fighting with a variety of groups that have unified to overthrow them.This has become common in conflict zones over the past few decades, then, as those who want to deny this data, and the capabilities it grants, to their enemies tend to blanket the relevant airwaves with disruptive noise or incorrect location information, rendering the GPS and similar networks less useful or entirely useless thereabouts.In Ukraine, the military has already worked out ways around this noise and false information, incorporating alternative navigation systems into their infrastructure, allowing them to use whichever one is the most accurate at any given moment.And it's likely, especially if this dynamic continues, which it probably will, as again, this is a fairly easy thing to accomplish, it's likely that spreading out and becoming less reliant on just one navigation system will probably become more common, or possibly even the de facto setup, which will be beneficial in the sense that each of these systems has its own pros and cons, but perhaps less so in that more satellites will be necessary to keep that larger, multi-model network operating at full capacity, and that'll make it more expensive to operate these systems, while also creating more opportunities for satellite collisions up in the relevant orbit—an orbit that's becoming increasingly crowded, and which is already packed with an abundance of no longer operational craft that must be avoided and operated-around.Show

We often take for granted how much of our modern lives are underpinned by GPS technology. This episode of On Orbit digs into GPS and the global landscape of GNSS, which stands for Global Navigation Satellite System. Dr. Sean Gorman, CEO of new startup Zephr, joins as this episode's guest. We talk about how much economic value is supported by GNSS technology, the GNSS geopolitical landscape including China's investment in the BeiDou constellation, private GNSS systems, and why this technology will be important for future use cases. Sean also talks about how Zephr fits into this landscape, and how working at Snapchat and dealing with GPS accuracy on mobile devices led to the idea for the company.

Space has been a popular domain for power projection ever since the launch of Russia's Sputnik in 1957. But how is soft power relevant in this domain? Dr Malcolm Davis, Senior Analyst at the Australian Strategic Policy Institute (ASPI), joins us to take a closer look at how China is utilising soft power in the space domain. This includes Tiangong, its space station; space situational awareness (SSA) ground stations all over the world; and BeiDou, China's GPS equivalent. Are these measures successful in projecting power? Where do they fit into the wider Chinese foreign policy of the Belt and Road Initiative? And is Russia likely to remain China's chief partner in this field?
The Global Positioning System or GPS has become entrenched in our daily life. Whether we want to maneuver traffic, or find a restaurant, it has made our life easier. But did you ever wonder who owns the GPS or who runs it? Originally Navstar GPS, the Global Positioning System is a satellite-based radionavigation system owned by the US government. And the United States Space Force operates it. India has found its homegrown alternative to the GPS in the form of NavIC. The government is taking rapid steps to enhance its adoption. What is NavIC? NavIC stands for Navigation with Indian Constellation. It is an independent navigation satellite system developed by the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO). NavIC consists of eight satellites and covers the entire India. Additionally, it covers up to 1,500 km from its boundaries. When was NavIC started? NavIC was originally approved in 2006 with a $174 million budget. It was expected to be completed by late 2011. But it only became operational in 2018. How is NavIC used? Currently, NavIC is being used to track public vehicles in India. It is also used to send emergency warning alerts to fishermen venturing into the sea where there is no terrestrial network connectivity. Also, it is being used for tracking and providing information in case of natural disasters. Off late, the Centre is pushing smartphone companies to adopt NavIC in India. NavIC vs GPS and others GPS provides global coverage but NavIC is currently limited to India and the adjacent areas. Three more navigational systems offer global coverage like the GPS. These are Galileo from the European Union, Russia-owned GLONASS and China's Beidou. Japan's QZSS provides navigational coverage of Asia-Pacific with a special focus on Japan. Why is the government vouching for NavIC? The government is aiming to remove foreign dependence on India's navigational requirements. It is more important in the case of strategic sectors. The centre believes that relying on GPS and others like it may not be wise for India as they are operated by defence agencies of their respective countries.
