Move over, Alan Turing: meet the working-class hero of Bletchley Park you didn't see in the movies The Oxbridge-educated boffin is feted as the codebreaking genius who helped Britain win the war. But should a little-known Post Office engineer named Tommy Flowers be seen as the real father of computing? T his is a story you know, right? It's early in the war and western Europe has fallen. Only the Channel stands between Britain and the fascist yoke; only Atlantic shipping lanes offer hope of the population continuing to be fed, clothed and armed. But hunting "wolf packs" of Nazi U-boats pick off merchant shipping at will, coordinated by radio instructions the Brits can intercept but can't read, thanks to the fiendish Enigma encryption machine.

How can Europe protect its skies against'escalating' drone menace? A drone detection and defense system is parked in Kottingbrunn, Austria, on Oct. 3 | REUTERS Paris - Drones flying over airports, commercial sites and other sensitive infrastructure in Europe is a growing phenomenon which EU leaders blame on Russia, and preventing the disruption they cause will prove a tough technical challenge, observers say. Detecting the drones, making them non-operational by jamming them, or even shooting them down, are all complex and hazardous tasks. And while Russian involvement is suspected, it is difficult to prove. Concerns are growing that such disruptions could be part of Russian hybrid war tactics three-and-a-half years into its invasion of Ukraine, as most European countries double down on their support for Kyiv including by delivering military hardware.

The American space agency is funding research into the large livable spheres which would be created in situ, the Telegraph reports. Tiny pieces of so-called lunar glass - a component of the moon's soil, or regolith, along with rocks and mineral fragments - would be collected upon arrival from Earth. The material would be melted down using the same technology as in a domestic microwave oven, along with a'smart microwave furnace'.

Paul Pastelok, chief meteorologist for AccuWeather's long-range forecasting team, told the Daily Mail that while he didn't expect above normal snowfall for the winter season, he warned that those in the Northeast should brace for nor'easters and it would still be a harsh winter. Pastelok explained that the nor'easter over this weekend is on trend with what is to come, as rapidly developing storms come in off the East Coast. 'People may say, Well, you're forecasting less snow, so it doesn't look like a harsh winter.
