ACES finds its home in orbit

The Atomic Clock Ensemble in Space (ACES), ESA's state-of-the-art timekeeping facility, has been successfully installed on the International Space Station, marking the start of a new chapter in space-based precision science.

ACES lifted off on 21 April 2025 aboard a SpaceX Falcon 9 from NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida, United States, as part of the 32nd SpaceX commercial resupply services mission to the International Space Station. On 25 April, the Station's Canadian robotic arm installed the payload on the Earth-facing side of ESA's Columbus laboratory, where it is set to operate for 30 months.

Developed by ESA in collaboration with European industry led by Airbus, ACES carries the most accurate atomic timepieces ever launched into space: PHARAO, a cesium-based fountain clock developed by the French space agency CNES, and the Space Hydrogen Maser built by Safran Timing Technologies in Switzerland.

These clocks will work in tandem with a cutting-edge microwave and laser link system to deliver time from orbit with unprecedented precision and allow ACES to establish a "network of clocks," comparing the most accurate clocks on Earth and in space to explore the nature of time, test general relativity and help pave the way for a redefinition of the second based on next-generation optical clocks.

With installation now complete, the next step is the first switch-on of the system, scheduled for 28 April. This initial activation will establish communications with ground control, enabling telemetry—data transmitted from ACES to Earth—and telecommands—instructions sent from engineers on the ground to ACES—while stabilizing thermal systems in preparation for clock operations.

A six-month commissioning phase will follow, during which engineers and scientists will calibrate the instruments, test time transfer links and characterize the performance of the ACES clocks. ACES will connect with clocks at selected ground stations several times a day as it orbits Earth on the International Space Station.

When multiple clocks are in the same field of view for the Station, such as two located in Europe, ACES can achieve a precision of one part in 10-17, or about 10 quintillionths of a second, within just a few days. This is between one and two orders of magnitude better than today's systems using navigation satellites such as GPS. Comparisons between distant clocks across continents, never directly compared to this accuracy before, will take about a week.

By the end of commissioning, the best operating parameters for PHARAO will be defined. ACES will then begin its two-year science phase, with ten planned sessions of 25 days of data-taking. After validation by the ACES science team, results will be shared with the global scientific community, opening new frontiers in fundamental physics and the science of time.

"I'm so excited and proud that our incredibly complex and hugely important project is now in space after many years of hard work. This is a major achievement for ESA and the science community, and I look forward to seeing the results of the hard work done by Airbus, Timetech, CNES, Safran Time Technologies and ESA, together with partners all over Europe. This is ESA's 'jewel in the crown' on the International Space Station," says Simon Weinberg, ACES project scientist, ESA.

For Ukrainian soldiers facing the near-constant threat of Russian drones, a crude-looking, pocketable drone detector has become one of the most sought-after gadgets on the battlefield. Dubbed Tsukorok, or “sugar,” by its London-based creator, the grassroots device produced by a variety of manufacturers beeps loudly when a drone enters its detection range, allowing soldiers time to run to cover or turn on their jamming devices.

“It’s amazing because it is so cheap and simple,” a mortar crewman, currently positioned in the Donbas region, said of the Tsukorok. He, like all soldiers cited in this article, spoke to Foreign Policy on the condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to talk to the press.

More than two years into Russia’s war in Ukraine, the Russian military still enjoys the upper hand in electronic warfare. “The Russians have powerful electronic warfare equipment. … Unfortunately, Russia is significantly ahead of Ukraine,” Ukrainian activist Maria Berlinska told Ukrainska Pravda in April. Berlinska was instrumental in pushing the Ukrainian military to develop its own drone capabilities and has trained soldiers and civilians to fly reconnaissance and attack drones.

On Ukraine’s front line, electronic warfare has largely focused on the ability to use and defend from reconnaissance and strike drones as well as long-range missiles. Small, agile first-person-view (FPV) drones, which can carry between 2 and 11 pounds of explosives, are now used extensively by both sides. The ability to detect and jam the signals sent and received by those drones is a matter of life and death.

The Russian military has successfully used elaborate truck-mounted jamming systems to reduce the effectiveness of Western-made, GPS-guided artillery shells as well as HIMARS and JDAM guided bombs, the Washington Post reported in May. More recently, Moscow has used armored vehicles and tanks mounted with jamming devices to push across the front line.

Now, with the sky on the front line saturated with drones, Ukraine is attempting to catch up. That often means employing simpler, more inexpensive equipment with smaller ranges, such as the Tsukorok, to detect signals coming from Russian drones and other guided weapons. More than 50 Ukrainian companies are engaged in producing electronic warfare equipment, from the humble Tsukorok to expensive jamming devices. Tens of thousands of drones are also produced or assembled in the country every month.

But the detection gadgets are hard to obtain. “Right now, I think the demand [for jamming equipment] is at least 10 times higher than what we can provide,” said Bohdan Danyliv, the head of the military department at the Prytula Foundation, one of the biggest organizations supporting the Ukrainian military. “Honestly, it may be 50 times bigger.” The Prytula Foundation already delivers equipment including SUVs, strike drones, rifle optics, communication, and medical equipment to the armed forces. In recent months, the organization has looked to ramp up deliveries of electronic warfare devices.

“Yes, it’s difficult right now,” said Dmytro Selin, the London-based Ukrainian software engineer behind the first model of the Tsukorok. “Deliveries [of parts for manufacturing] aren’t reliable. Parcels can get stuck for weeks at a time. … Demand is a lot higher than our team can handle.”

Soldiers and the Ukrainian companies producing electronic warfare equipment must also deal with the ever-changing nature of electronic warfare. “Both the technologies and the tactics evolve very quickly,” said Anton Veklenko, the chief instructor and co-founder of Global Drone Academy, a Ukrainian company training Ukrainian civilians and soldiers in the use of military drones and electronic warfare.

Since 2022, electronic warfare has quickly made GPS guidance, which most off-the-shelf consumer drones use to navigate, obsolete. Both sides now deploy drones that act as relays to increase the flying range of their FPV drones to distances of up to 31 miles. Russia and Ukraine have also each experimented with autonomous guidance systems, allowing drones to strike their targets even when their signals jammed.

“We also train our pilots to detect which frequencies are being jammed in a specific area of the front line so that they can quickly change the frequencies used to fly their drones,” Veklenko said. “There’s no universal jammer that can block everything, so it’s a constant game of adaptation.”

The rise in popularity of the Tsukorok in late 2023, boosted by positive word of mouth from a Ukrainian military blogger, represents one of these adaptations. The constant threat of drones created the need for a small detector that could be used by any soldier without the training that more accurate and reliable—but also more complex—spectrum analyzers require. Selin, who moved to the United Kingdom in 2019, developed the first prototype in the summer of 2022, focusing at the time on detecting signals from the Russian Orlan reconnaissance drone.

Front-line troops use the Tsukorok to know when to turn on their energy-intensive jamming devices; artillery crewmen think of it as a last-resort warning, allowing them to run to prepared shelters as loitering munitions hurl toward them. A combat medic currently serving in the Kharkiv region explained that he always leaves a Tsukorok in his olive-colored ambulance: “I use it as a guide, to know when to use the jammer.”

The surge in demand put Selin and other groups building the device in a bind, as they went from producing a handful of detectors every month to hundreds, and then thousands, facing hurdles to scale up production. “I’m in talks with manufacturers and governments in Europe, but it is complicated, in good parts because of the bureaucracy,” Selin said. “But now we’re looking to diversify as much as possible,” with a goal of producing up to 10,000 detectors every month. Currently, half of the parts of the Tsukorok are produced in China and half in Ukraine; the final product is assembled in Ukraine.

“When it comes to the production of [electronic warfare] equipment, the situation right now is similar to what we had with FPV drones a year and a half ago,” said Danyliv of the Prytula Foundation. There is an “unstructured market, few established players, and a mix of bad devices that can cost a lot of money and high-quality devices that cannot be produced in enough quantities to meet the demand.”

The Tsukorok isn’t a miracle solution, Selin admitted: It can lose effectiveness in areas saturated with drones and is meant to complement, rather than replace, other detecting and jamming devices. “It is meant as a last warning device, but on the battlefield, soldiers will get information from lots of other sources,” Selin said.

“I call them personal protectors—it’s something that every soldier should have,” Danyliv said. “It won’t solve everything, but when you have one of those things in your pocket, you feel a lot calmer.”

Engineering Surveys Explained: From Blueprint to Build

In the world of construction and infrastructure development, accuracy and precision are paramount. Whether it’s a residential complex, a bridge, or a highway, every project begins with a deep understanding of the site. That’s where engineering surveys come into play. These critical assessments serve as the foundation upon which architects, engineers, and contractors build their plans and execute their visions.

This article provides a comprehensive overview of engineering surveys, their purpose, types, methods, and significance in the Australian construction landscape.

What Are Engineering Surveys?

Engineering surveys are specialised surveys conducted to collect data that supports the planning, design, and execution of engineering projects. These surveys help determine the positions of natural and man-made features on the land and ensure that construction is carried out with accuracy and efficiency.

By providing spatial information about terrain, elevations, boundaries, infrastructure, and utilities, engineering surveys eliminate guesswork, mitigate risks, and guide construction from concept to completion.

Importance of Engineering Surveys in Australia

Australia’s diverse landscapes—from coastal zones to rugged outback terrains—pose unique challenges in civil engineering. Engineering surveys enable project stakeholders to adapt to these conditions by offering critical insights that influence feasibility, cost estimation, environmental compliance, and structural safety.

Key reasons why engineering surveys are indispensable include:

Ensuring compliance with local planning and zoning regulations

Minimising costly construction errors or rework

Providing data for designing roads, drainage systems, and utility layouts

Supporting land development assessments and subdivision planning

Enhancing safety and reducing environmental impact

Types of Engineering Surveys

Depending on the nature and scope of the project, different types of engineering surveys may be utilised. The most common types in Australian construction projects include:

1. Topographic Surveys

These surveys map out the natural and artificial features of a land parcel, including elevations, contours, vegetation, buildings, and infrastructure. They are essential for understanding site conditions before initiating any design work.

2. Boundary Surveys

Boundary surveys define the exact legal limits of a property. They help resolve disputes, support subdivision developments, and ensure that construction activities remain within legal property lines.

3. Construction Set-Out Surveys

These surveys mark the precise location of proposed structures or infrastructures on the ground, as per the approved design plans. They ensure that the physical construction aligns with engineering specifications.

4. As-Built Surveys

Also known as "as-constructed" surveys, these are conducted after construction to verify that the work has been completed according to plan. They are often required for regulatory compliance and project documentation.

5. Utility Surveys

Utility surveys locate and map underground services such as water mains, sewerage, telecommunications, and electrical cables. This information is crucial for avoiding service disruptions during excavation and construction.

Techniques and Tools Used in Engineering Surveys

Modern engineering surveys rely on cutting-edge technology to collect and process data with precision. Tools commonly used include:

Total Stations: Instruments that measure angles and distances with high accuracy

GPS/GNSS Equipment: Global positioning systems used for geolocation and mapping

Drones/UAVs: Used for aerial photogrammetry and large-scale topographic surveys

3D Laser Scanners: Capture detailed spatial data for complex structures or terrain

Geographic Information Systems (GIS): Software for visualising and analysing spatial data

Each of these tools plays a vital role in ensuring that engineering surveys produce reliable, actionable information.

The Engineering Survey Process

While the exact workflow may vary by project, a typical engineering survey in Australia involves the following stages:

Initial Consultation – Understanding project requirements, timelines, and regulatory obligations.

Site Reconnaissance – A preliminary visit to identify key features and assess access and safety.

Data Acquisition – Using advanced instruments to collect accurate spatial and elevation data.

Data Processing – Converting raw data into maps, models, and CAD files.

Reporting and Delivery – Presenting the results in formats required by engineers, planners, and authorities.

Engineering Surveys and Australian Regulations

In Australia, engineering surveys must comply with standards set by professional bodies such as the Surveying and Spatial Sciences Institute (SSSI) and state-specific regulations. For example, in New South Wales, surveyors must adhere to the requirements of the Surveying and Spatial Information Act 2002. Similar regulatory frameworks exist across Queensland, Victoria, and other states, ensuring consistency and legal compliance.

Applications Across Industries

Although closely associated with construction, engineering surveys are crucial across various industries, including:

Transport and Infrastructure (e.g., railways, airports, motorways)

Mining and Resources

Urban Planning and Development

Water Management and Utilities

Renewable Energy Projects (e.g., solar farms, wind turbines)

These surveys support both public and private sector projects, contributing to Australia's ongoing urbanisation and infrastructure development.

Final Thoughts

From identifying land contours to marking construction set-out points, engineering surveys form the backbone of every successful project. Their role in minimising errors, ensuring regulatory compliance, and enhancing safety makes them an essential service in Australia’s dynamic built environment.

Whether you're initiating a residential development in Melbourne or planning a major infrastructure project in regional Queensland, investing in professional engineering surveys is the first step toward building with confidence.

By understanding the scope, significance, and processes involved in these surveys, project stakeholders can make informed decisions that streamline development and secure long-term success.

It’s farming with a bird’s eye view—efficient, precise, and futuristic. In cities like Buenos Aires, drones are elevating urban art, filming cinematic cityscapes, tracking traffic patterns, and even assisting emergency services during events and protests. Argentina’s creative scene is also embracing drones as instruments of visual poetry—musicians, filmmakers, and artists are using aerial footage to add breathtaking depth to their work.

What’s uniquely Argentinian about their drone journey is how seamlessly they blend creativity with utility. Whether flying above a gaucho herding cattle or capturing the golden glow of Patagonia at sunrise, drones here are not just tools—they are storytellers of a nation constantly in motion.

The Everyday Flight: Drones in Daily Life

What once felt like science fiction is now slipping quietly into our routines. Hikers use drones to scout trails before venturing forward. Real estate agents offer virtual sky tours of properties. Lifeguards use them to watch over crowded beaches. Kids learn coding through drone programming kits. Even weddings now come with their own flight plan—drones capturing love stories from above, weaving cinematic memories in motion.

Drones have redefined leisure, work, and exploration. They’ve added a new dimension to creativity. No longer tethered to the ground, people can now think—and create—vertically. They’ve become tools for telling bigger stories, for exploring unseen angles, and for solving problems that once seemed insurmountable.

MY NOTES: First of all, with only twelve Targeting Pods for 20 Aircraft, that means that not all Aircraft will have them, only slightly over half will be equipped with them. This seems to indicate that the Pods will be operated through a "Buddy System", meaning one Pod will be shared by two Aircraft.

As for the Sidewinder Missiles, at only 40 for 20 Aircraft, that means each Aircraft can be allocated only two Sidewinders if evenly distributed. At 112 AMRAAM Missiles though, that means around five to six Missiles can be allocated evenly for the twenty Aircraft.

The US is only selling us the "C" Versions of their AMRAAMs, though, perhaps they don't trust us as much as an "Ally" to sell us their latest "D" Version of the Missile. No other Missiles are included in the Package, but there are a lot of Guided Bombs, there are several dozen of them, and at least two Types. Lots of unguided Bombs, over a hundred for two Types

Remember that back in 2021, during the Administration of former President Rodrigo Duterte, the US also made an offer of the same Aircraft. Compared to that, this one is more than twice as expensive, but only less than twice the Aircraft.

However, there are almost five times more AMRAAM Missiles, and around twenty times more unguided Bombs, which is the Reason for the big increase in Price of the Aircraft. Anyway, it remains to be seen if the Philippines will, indeed sign the Contract for this Aircraft

A new era of solar observation

For the first time, scientists have taken near-daily measurements of the Sun’s global coronal magnetic field, a region of the Sun that has only been observed irregularly in the past. The resulting observations are providing valuable insights into the processes that drive the intense solar storms that impact fundamental technologies, and thus lives and livelihoods, here on Earth.

An analysis of the data, collected over eight months by an instrument called the Upgraded Coronal Multi-channel Polarimeter (UCoMP), is published today in Science.

The solar magnetic field is the primary driver of solar storms, which can pose threats to power grids, communication systems, and in-space technologies like GPS. However, our ability to understand how the magnetic field builds up energy and erupts has been limited by the challenge of observing it in the solar corona, the Sun’s upper atmosphere. 

Measuring the magnetism of the region through standard polarimetric methods typically requires large, expensive equipment that to date has only been able to study small segments of the corona. However, the combined use of coronal seismology and UCoMP observations makes it possible for researchers to produce consistent and comprehensive views of the magnetic field of the global corona  — the whole-Sun view one sees during a solar eclipse. 

“Global mapping of the coronal magnetic field has been a big missing part in the study of the Sun,” said Zihao Yang, lead author who pursued this research as a PhD graduate at Peking University, China, and is now a postdoctoral fellow at the U.S. National Science Foundation National Center for Atmospheric Research (NSF NCAR). “This research is helping us fill a crucial gap in our understanding of coronal magnetic fields, which are the source of the energy for storms that can impact Earth.​”  

The international team is made of researchers from Northumbria University, UK; NSF NCAR; Peking University, China; and University of Michigan. The research was funded by a grant from the National Natural Science Foundation of China and the National Key R&D Program of China and supported by the Newkirk graduate student fellowship awarded to Yang by NSF NCAR. The UCoMP instrument was developed with support from the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF) and is operated by NSF NCAR at the Mauna Loa Solar Observatory.

Upgraded instrument

Although scientists have been able to routinely measure the magnetic field on the Sun’s surface, known as the photosphere, it has long been difficult to measure the much dimmer coronal magnetic field. This has limited a deeper understanding of the three-dimensional structure and evolution of the magnetic field of the corona, where solar storms brew.

To measure the three-dimensional coronal magnetic fields in depth, big telescopes like NSF’s Daniel K. Inouye Solar Telescope (DKIST) are needed. With a 4-meter-diameter aperture, DKIST is the world’s largest solar telescope, and recently demonstrated its groundbreaking ability for making detailed observations  of the coronal magnetic field. However, DKIST is not able to map the Sun all at once. The smaller UCoMP instrument is actually better-suited to give scientists global pictures of the coronal magnetic field, albeit at lower resolution and in a two-dimensional projection. The observations from both sources are thus highly-complementary to a holistic view of the coronal magnetic field.

UCoMP is primarily a coronagraph, an instrument that uses a disc to block out light from the Sun, similar to an eclipse, making it easier to observe the corona. It also combines a Stokes polarimeter, which images other spectral information such as coronal line intensity and Doppler velocity. Even though UCoMP has a much smaller aperture (20 cm), it is able to take a wider view which makes it possible to study the entire Sun on most days.  

The researchers applied a method called coronal seismology to track magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) transverse waves in the UCoMP data. The MHD waves gave them information that made it possible to create a two-dimensional map of the strength and direction of the coronal magnetic field.

In 2020, a previous study used UCoMP’s predecessor and the coronal seismology method to produce the first map of the global coronal magnetic field. This was a crucial step toward routine coronal magnetic field measurements. UCoMP has expanded capabilities that makes it possible to make more detailed, routine measurements. During the UCoMP study, the research team produced 114 magnetic field maps between February and October 2022, or one almost every other day. 

“We are entering a new era of solar physics research where we can routinely measure the coronal magnetic field,” said Yang. 

Completing the picture

The observations also produced the first measurements of the coronal magnetic field in the polar regions. The Sun’s poles have never been directly observed because the curve of the Sun near the poles keeps it just beyond our view from Earth. Though the researchers didn’t directly view the poles, for the first time they were able to take measurements of the magnetism emitting from them. This was due in part to the improved data quality provided by UCoMP and because the Sun was near solar maximum. The typically weak emissions from the polar region have been much stronger, making it easier to obtain coronal magnetic field results in the polar regions. 

As a postdoctoral fellow at NSF NCAR, Yang will continue his research of the Sun’s magnetic field; he hopes to improve existing coronal models that are based on measurements of the photosphere. Since the current method used with UCoMP is limited to two dimensions, it still doesn’t capture the full three-dimensional magnetic field. Yang and his colleagues hope to combine their research with other techniques to get a deeper understanding of the full vector of the magnetic field in the corona. 

The third dimension of the magnetic field, oriented along a viewer's line of sight, is of particular importance for understanding how the corona is energized leading up to a solar eruption. Ultimately, a combination of a large telescope and a global field of view is needed to measure all the three-dimensional twists and tangles behind phenomena like solar eruptions; this is the motivation behind the proposed Coronal Solar Magnetism Observatory (COSMO), a 1.5-meter-diameter solar refracting telescope undergoing its final design study.

“Since coronal magnetism is the force that sends mass from the Sun flying across the solar system, we have to observe it in 3D — and everywhere all at once, throughout the global corona,” said Sarah Gibson, COSMO Development Lead and an NSF NCAR scientist co-author on the paper. "Yang's work represents a huge step forward in our ability to understand how the Sun's global coronal magnetic field changes from day to day. This is critical to our ability to better predict and prepare for solar storms, which are an ever-increasing danger to our ever-more technologically dependent lives here on Earth."
