Scientists at the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) are studying how the ocean could help us stave off the worst effects of a warming world. In a new effort, PNNL-Sequim researchers have teamed up with carbon sequestration technology company Ebb Carbon to test their technology that removes acid from seawater, allowing that seawater to absorb carbon dioxide without further acidifying the ocean. https://youtu.be/V72PIdofLIo?si=jOspn0aiKjG7CONa This work is currently being supported by the U.S. Department of Energy’s Water Power Technologies Office, Climate Works and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s Ocean Acidification Program.

The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) has successfully landed its Chandrayaan-3 Lander Module on the surface of the Moon. Chandrayaan-3 launched from the Satish Dhawan Space Centre in Sriharikota Range (SDSC SHAR), India, on 14 July 2023 on a mission to demonstrate new technologies and to achieve India’s first soft landing on another celestial body. The spacecraft arrived in lunar orbit on 5 August. On 17 August, the lander module separated from the propulsion module and soon after began its descent to the surface. On 23 August, after a nail-biting wait, ISRO confirmed that Chandrayaan-3’s lander had successfully touched down in the Moon’s southern polar region as planned. https://www.isro.gov.in/Chandrayaan3.html
