Ariane 6 empieza a encontrarse en una posición que Europa llevaba tiempo esperando: deja de ser aquel cohete nuevo del que había que preguntarse qué ocurriría en el siguiente lanzamiento y empieza a convertirse en una herramienta de acceso al espacio con una trayectoria cada vez más estable. Eso debería simplificar las cosas, pero eso no siempre ocurre. Superada buena parte de la incertidumbre técnica inicial, vuelve a primer plano una discusión mucho más antigua y difícil de resolver. Europa necesita su propio lanzador, sí, pero mantenerlo, producirlo y hacerlo evolucionar tiene un precio…
Alan Love studies how scientists think about life, purpose, and agency. In this full interview, he offers a wide-ranging guide to purpose in living systems, moving across biology, medicine, artificial intelligence, and the structure of science itself. He explores what it means for organisms to act with direction, why agency matters at multiple scales, and how ideas like function and goal-directed behavior can help us better understand life. For Love, these questions are not confined to one field. They require philosophers, biologists, doctors, AI researchers, and other thinkers to work across…
Anytime there’s a chance to subject our Universe to a new cosmic test, it’s imperative that we do it. First off, it gives the Universe a chance to surprise us: to show us something that we never could have learned unless we looked. Second off, it gives us a chance to test our underlying assumptions about the Universe: what it’s made of, what laws and rules it obeys, and how it behaves in never-before-probed ways. And third — and perhaps most importantly — if there are rival ideas for making sense of the Universe, a new test has the potential to answer the question definitively: with data from…
