GPS not working? A new navigation system with 10 centimeter accuracy
Time-lapse photo series of a hydrogel with fuel added (middle row) compared with a control hydrogel to which nothing has been added (top row), over a three-week period (504 hours). The bottom row shows a hydrogel that changes shape independently when two different types of fuel are added. Credit: TU Delft

The promise of long-range remotely-controlled autonomous emission-free waterways vessels
Artist Ella Marushenko’s interpretation of the Josephson Diode effect. The image shows a computer chip made from a few layers of atoms (blue and white spheres) comprising the Josephson Diode. The green pairs of spheres represent superconducting pairs of electrons moving in one direction, while the orange spheres represent normal conducting single electrons moving in the opposite direction across the Josephson Diode.
