CHINA is completely surpassing and outclassing Western industries — smooth tunnel blasting showcasing the power of Chinese engineering in action. China’s capabilities go far beyond tunneling for roads and high‑speed rail; they also extend to building passages beneath rivers and seas. Thanks to its giant tunnel‑boring machines, a single machine can help construct an entire integrated tunnel network serving a whole city.

China on Thursday announced that it has successfully completed a comprehensive test for the landing and take off of its manned lunar lander "Lanyue" at a test site in Huailai County in the northern Chinese province of Hebei. The "Lanyue" lunar lander is a newly developed extraterrestrial manned descent and ascent vehicle for China's first manned lunar exploration mission, which is primarily designed for transporting astronauts between lunar orbit and the lunar surface. The lander can carry two astronauts on round trips and is equipped to transport a lunar rover and scientific payloads, supporting astronauts in conducting surface activities and extended stays on the moon.

I saw hot-rolled steel plates for the first time. The temperature is above 1000℃. However, this is an automated production line, and workers work in the control room at 24℃. I am about 20 meters away from the steel plate, and I feel my hair is bent by baking.😲

The United States has begun receiving shipments of tungsten, a critical rare-earth mineral, straight from Rwanda for the first time. This is a major milestone for the Trump White House in their push to dismantle China's power over America's mineral supply chain. “It is an honor to see our material from Rwanda here at one of the largest tungsten processors in the world being converted into products that will help make America safer, stronger, more prosperous... In turn, the nearly 7,000 employees of Trinity Metals and the government of Rwanda will benefit from such market access and the deepening of strategic ties between the two countries,” - Trinity Metals Chairman Shawn McCormick. China dominates the critical mineral industry, especially tungsten production, where it produces 80% of the global supply. Rwanda is also a big producer, and the partnership with the United States will help defeat China's mineral monopoly.

China has successfully launched the world's first commercial underwater data center. China's underwater data center in Hainan Province currently the only operational commercial facility of its kind in the world, has evolved to handle high-density AI computing. Key details include: 🔹Originally deployed in 2022, the facility has been expanded with new modules specifically designed for demanding AI training and cloud services. 🔹By sitting on the seabed, the sealed capsules utilize seawater for natural cooling, eliminating the need for energy-intensive air conditioning and saving massive amounts of freshwater and land. 🔹While it solves land and energy issues, researchers warn of potential risks to marine biodiversity, including local water warming and ocean deoxygenation. 🔹A second underwater data center is currently under construction near Shanghai.

This is absolutely huge! On Tuesday, representatives of 🇵🇸14 Palestinian factions, including Fatah and Hamas, pledged to end their divisions and strengthen Palestinian unity by signing the Beijing Declaration. The announcement was made after a three-day reconciliation dialogue from July 21 to 23 in Beijing following China's invitation to intra-Palestinian reconciliation talks. At the closing ceremony of the dialogue, Fatah voiced its appreciation for China, saying China's support for Palestine has never stopped and has been increasing in recent years. Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi also attended the closing ceremony. This is the first time since the outbreak of the latest Palestinian-Israeli conflict that the Palestinian factions have reached a reconciliation agreement. The joint statement is of great positive significance to the realization of unity and reconciliation among the Palestinian and Israeli factions.

🇫🇷 French company Dassault Aviation has, for the first time since the 1970s, opened a new production facility in Cergy, northwest of Paris, covering more than 110 square kilometers. The plant, which became fully operational by summer 2024, replaces the outdated site in Argenteuil. The new complex now carries out key operations, including component assembly, fuselage section integration, and systems installation for Rafale fighter jets, as well as the production of parts for Falcon business jets. According to the company, the opening is part of Dassault’s strategy to ramp up Rafale production to three aircraft per month starting in 2026, driven by strong export demand.

Robotic surgery in pancreatic cancer care: *Quo vadis?* 🩺🤖 In 2000, one of the first robot-assisted cholecystectomies in Belgium was performed UZ Leuven using the ZEUS system. Shortly after, the technology was acquired by Intuitive — a company that would become the global leader in robotic surgery. In 2013, this pioneering trajectory continued with one of Belgium’s first robotic Whipple procedures, using the da Vinci platform. After several cases, however, the robotic approach was paused due to its high cost and limited advantage over laparoscopy at that time. Today, robotic surgery is deeply integrated in complex abdominal procedures — including pancreatic resections. Industry investment in conventional laparoscopy has declined. Intuitive’s business model has evolved, and the cost of robotic surgery is now approaching parity with laparoscopic approaches. Technology has evolved. The market has too. **Is now the time to fully embrace robotic surgery – even for complex procedures like the Whipple?** 👇 Curious to hear your thoughts: Vote in the poll below and feel free to elaborate in the comments. #RoboticSurgery #Pancreaticcancer #Whipple #MedTech #SurgicalInnovation #Healthcare #MinimallyInvasive

A giant 'solar power bank' hidden in Gobi Desert, NW China's Xinjiang Can a solar power plant still generate electricity after the sun goes down? In Hami, northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, rows of linear Fresnel reflectors track the sun, concentrating sunlight into thermal energy and storing it using molten salt. When night falls, this stored heat can be released to continue generating electricity, functioning just like a giant power bank for sunlight. The integrated project, combining concentrated solar power (CSP) and photovoltaic (PV) technology, has a total capacity of 1 million kilowatts (kW). It consists of a 900,000-kW PV power station and a 100,000-kW linear Fresnel molten salt CSP plant, whose solar field covers approximately 800,000 square meters. From tracking sunlight and storing heat to generating power, solar energy is transcending the boundaries of day and night in the Gobi Desert.
