La misión Artemis II despega esta noche (00:24 hora peninsular) y marcará un nuevo hito en la exploración espacial 🚀

🇪🇸 España forma parte de este momento histórico y será un actor relevante.

Te explicamos por qué 👇🧵

Històricament, el nostre sistema educatiu ens ha avaluat per les respostes. Jutgem l’alumne per com respon les preguntes de l’examen, però no és habitual avaluar algú per les preguntes que fa.

A 17-year-old just built a mind-controlled prosthetic arm for $300.

Yes, $300.

For something that usually costs $450,000.

Let that hit you.

A teenager, working from home, used AI, cheap materials, and 23,000 lines of code to build a device that reads brain signals without surgery, without implants, and without a $450K price tag.

This is not a feel-good story.

It’s a warning shot.

How can a high school student build something 1,500× cheaper than the industry standard?

What does that say about innovation?

About pricing?

About who gets access to life-changing technology?

Of course, medical prosthetics are expensive for real reasons:
materials, testing, regulation, customization.

But let’s be honest — not all of that justifies a half-million-dollar price.

This story exposes a simple truth:

The future of accessibility won’t come from the system.

It will come from the outsiders who dare to challenge it.

If a 17-year-old can match top-tier prosthetics for a fraction of the cost…

why aren’t these solutions available to the millions who need them?

What do you think — breakthrough moment or the start of a bigger revolution?

El primer braç de la Creu de la torre de Jesús ja està col·locat! 🤩🔝 Així ha sigut el procés d’instal·lació del braç orientat a la façana del Naixement. Properament s’instal·larà el segon braç, l’orientat a la façana de Passió. 👀

I thought House of Dynamite, the new nuclear thriller on Netflix, was amazing. Edge of your seat tension throughout, almost documentary-level realism, and the reality of fog-of-war decision making will keep you thinking and talking for long after the credits roll.
