Tanker Collision in North Sea, Neuralink Files 'Telepathy' and 'Telekinesis' Trademarks, and EU to Help Ukraine Replace Starlink
Podcast:Discover Daily by Perplexity Published On: Tue Mar 11 2025 Description: We're experimenting and would love to hear from you!In this episode of 'Discover Daily', we explore a major maritime disaster in the North Sea where the US-flagged oil tanker MV Stena Immaculate collided with the Portuguese cargo ship Solong off East Yorkshire on March 10, 2025. The collision caused fires on both vessels, forced crew evacuations, and released jet fuel into the sea, raising environmental concerns. All 37 crew members were rescued safely, though questions remain about whether the Solong was on autopilot when it struck the anchored tanker.We also examine Neuralink's ambitious plans as the company files trademark applications for futuristic terms like "Telepathy" and "Telekinesis," signaling development of brain-computer interfaces that could allow users to control devices with their thoughts. Our main story focuses on the European Union's efforts to reduce Ukraine's dependence on Starlink by negotiating with major European satellite operators like SES, Hisdesat, Viasat, and Eutelsat OneWeb to create alternative satellite communication solutions for Ukraine's critical infrastructure needs.The episode highlights the complex relationship between technology and geopolitics, particularly as Ukraine relies on approximately 40,000 Starlink terminals for government functions, healthcare operations, and military communications in areas where traditional internet infrastructure has been compromised. While European satellite operators remain optimistic about providing alternatives, experts note that no current European system can match Starlink's extensive coverage, underscoring Europe's push for technological independence in satellite communications.From Perplexity's Discover Feed:https://www.perplexity.ai/page/tanker-collision-in-north-sea-.873SdLDRgGwCPhztCI_Cghttps://www.perplexity.ai/page/neuralink-files-telepathy-and-LHjgvYQrTuqKZ7fgeIau9Qhttps://www.perplexity.ai/page/eu-to-help-ukraine-replace-sta-t5eIZ_IMTOyC6kj6yKO4Vw**Introducing Perplexity Deep Research:**https://www.perplexity.ai/hub/blog/introducing-perplexity-deep-research Perplexity is the fastest and most powerful way to search the web.
