About this episode

We're experimenting and would love to hear from you!

In this episode of 'Discover Daily' by Perplexity, hosts Alex and Sienna delve into cutting-edge developments in technology and space. They explore Mozi, a revolutionary social networking app created by Twitter co-founder Ev Williams, designed to foster genuine connections and real-world meetups. Unlike traditional social media platforms, Mozi prioritizes privacy and meaningful interactions over content sharing and follower counts.

The show then shifts focus to the U.S. Space Force's new Commercial Space Strategy, aimed at maintaining space superiority in an increasingly contested environment. Alex and Sienna discuss how the Space Force is adapting to counter advanced space warfare capabilities developed by China and Russia, including anti-satellite missiles, electronic jammers, and robotic satellites.

The main feature of the episode centers on the groundbreaking discovery of altermagnetism in manganese telluride. This new form of magnetism could potentially revolutionize electronic devices, offering unprecedented processing speeds and energy efficiency. The hosts explore the unique properties of altermagnets and their potential applications in quantum computing, data processing, and advanced sensors, highlighting the significant impact this discovery could have on future technology.
