  • Additional ISIS brides identified in Syrian camp
    The director of Syria's Roj camp has confirmed two additional ISIS brides are among a group of 34 Australian women and children detained there, with these two women considered extremists and held separately from the main group. The original 11 Australian ISIS brides are reportedly showing no signs of extremist behaviour in the camp, though questions remain about their actions during their time in the caliphate. Australian authorities face the challenge of assessing security risks whilst considering the welfare of children in the camps, including a six-year-old girl hoping to return to Australia.

  • Australian company tests hypersonic flight technology
    A Brisbane-based company is preparing to launch the Dart AE, a 3D-printed autonomous vehicle designed to travel at five times the speed of sound using scramjet engine technology. The 3.5-metre vehicle will launch from a NASA facility in West Virginia, reaching the edge of space before flying horizontally for approximately 10 minutes at speeds up to Mach 5. The successful test represents a significant step towards commercial supersonic aviation that could reduce travel time from Sydney to London to just two hours.
