What if you could build an epidemic outbreak prediction model in minutes rather than weeks? Title: Planetary prediction engine: Automating global models via Earth AI URL: Google's Planetary Prediction Engine (PPE) automatically builds geospatial prediction models from natural language queries. For problems like public health, food security, and infectious disease outbreaks, it compresses weeks of manual data curation and feature engineering into minutes — no specialized engineering team required. Key Points 🌍 A three-stage automated pipeline — from query to model Stage 1 translates natural language into geographic constraints and retrieves covariates from Data Commons and Google Earth Engine. Stage 2 fuses structured covariates with embeddings from Population Dynamics Foundation Models and AlphaEarth. Stage 3 searches across regularized linear models, gradient-boosted trees, and MLPs. Each stage embeds a "Feature Gate" (leakage prevention) and an "Overfitting Guard Protocol" (self-correcting risk assessment). 🔬 Multimodal fusion outperforms either modality alone — across every experiment Combining structured statistical covariates with latent foundation model embeddings captures information neither source provides individually. This synergy was confirmed across all experiments, establishing a new architectural pattern for geospatial prediction. 📊 Validated across three high-stakes domains ・US CDC health indicators (21 types): R² 76.8% vs 60.0% baseline ・Nigeria food security downscaling: R² 66.1% vs 31.5% baseline (2× improvement) ・DRC Ebola outbreak prediction: Recall@10 83.3% (+10.3 percentage points vs Bayesian baseline) The real impact is democratization: humanitarian organizations and researchers without dedicated engineering teams can now get evidence-based predictions within minutes when it matters most. #EarthAI# #PublicHealth#

The Artemis II crew has recreated “Earthrise,” one of the most famous photographs of all time, with a small twist. The new photo is of Earthset, capturing the surface of the moon and the crescent-lit Earth setting beyond it in the same frame:

Apollo 8 astronauts captured the iconic Earthrise image, which inspired the global environmental movement. Artemis II astronauts may have the chance to recreate it more than 50 years later. Here's how they might do it:
