A Numerical Testbed for Hypotheses of Extraterrestrial Life and Intelligence

open access: yes, 2008
The search for extraterrestrial intelligence (SETI) has been heavily influenced by solutions to the Drake Equation, which returns an integer value for the number of communicating civilisations resident in the Milky Way, and by the Fermi Paradox, glibly ...

Bio‐Inspired Swarm Robotics Design for Mine Automation

open access: yesNatural Sciences, Volume 6, Issue 2, April 2026.
Ants demonstrate tandem running for cooperative haulage, and honeybees use memory‐based routes between hive and flowers. These behaviours inspire autonomous haulage robots in open‐pit mines to achieve efficient scan‐plan‐retrieve ore transport, replacing small haulage robots with large mining trucks.

Autocatalytic Selection as a Driver for the Origin of Life

open access: yesLife
Darwin’s theory of evolution by natural selection was revolutionary because it provided a mechanism by which variation could be selected. This mechanism can only operate on living systems and thus cannot be applied to the origin of life. Here, we propose
