Humanoid robots may be about to break the 100-metre sprint record

Robots can now run a half-marathon faster than humans and are rapidly homing in on the 100-metre sprint record. But why are companies so keen to create speedy robots that have no obvious application in homes or factories?

🌱🏫 #School gardens provide a practical setting for students to study #biology, #ecology, and environmental #science.

While these outdoor spaces offer significant learning benefits, educators must navigate challenges like funding and #summer maintenance to keep them operational. Integrating these #gardens into the core curriculum helps bridge the gap between classroom theory and real-world #agriculture.
