What kids of divorce really need and the future of space exploration
Breaking up is hard to do, especially when there are children involved. And for many parents working through a separation, it comes with guilt and fear that kids living across two separate households will be worse off. But a new research paper from the Australian Institute of Family Studies shows as long as kids feel a sense of safety and security, the bells and whistles are less important. As AI adoption surges, so too does the demand for data centres. But these facilities require enormous amounts of energy and water to operate. A NSW inquiry is now examining the rapid expansion, with three local councils pushing back. Researchers Brownyn Cumbo and Ascelin Gordon explore how this technology fits into our infrastructure, and what it means for the communities hosting it. The Artemis II crew have set a new record for space exploration, travelling farther from Earth than any humans before them. Head of the Australian Space Agency Enrico Palermo unpacks what we hope to learn from this mission, and how its success might shape the future of space exploration.
