Simula

Gaming creator Aryan Gamerz has released a new video in which characters Jack and Riya discover a house made of Red Lays chips, part of content themed around an 'Indian Theft Aura Simulator'. The clip has drawn over 330,000 likes, with viewers responding to the absurd premise and playful 'aura' framing popular in current gaming meme culture.

An artificial intelligence system developed at MIT has created its own physics simulator and used it to redesign graphene, the one-atom-thick carbon material known for its extraordinary strength and conductivity. The result points to a new way of doing materials science, where AI models simulate physics themselves rather than relying solely on conventional simulation software.

A new study found that Earth microbes can survive in simulated conditions of the ocean beneath the ice on Enceladus, Saturn's icy moon. Scientists exposed microorganisms to the moon's expected temperature, pressure and chemistry, and they endured. Researchers say the findings strengthen the case that Enceladus could support life and make future missions to sample its plumes more compelling.
