Women face bans on research underground — here’s how to modernize the system

Nature, Published online: 27 August 2026; doi:10.1038/d41586-026-02679-y In many countries, female engineers are barred from entering deep mines to carry out studies. Differentiating risks can increase access while protecting safety.

What It Takes to Be an Adaptable Engineer

The AI boom has disrupted the way engineers work, introducing new tools to learn, raising expectations for what teams can achieve in a workday, and making it harder to get hired in the first place.

A New NASA Design Turbocharges Nuclear Spacecraft

Summary NASA and industry engineers propose a synchronal bimodal nuclear rocket (S‑BNR) to dramatically cut transit times to destinations around the solar system, such as Mars, by combining nuclear thermal and electric propulsion.

What Is The EV Battery Nail Test (And What Happens When Things Go Wrong)

Electric vehicles' batteries must undergo lots of tests to determine their range and longevity. Engineers also have to test what happens in a disaster.
