Satellite Internet in the Arctic: Elon Musk says SpaceX’s Starlink can deliver reliable 10 Gbps symmetric upload/download “anywhere,” citing peak performance in Utqiagvik and noting bonded gateways up to 20 Gbps—part of Starlink’s push toward multi-gigabit service for remote regions. STEM Policy & Education: Alaska expanded eligibility for early intervention for infants and toddlers with developmental delays, lowering the delay threshold from 50% to 25% so more kids can access screenings and therapies. Health Tech & Data: A large U.S. study finds children’s mental health treatment dropped sharply when schools closed in 2020, then rebounded above pre-pandemic levels by 2022, with big increases in therapy and psychiatric medication. Autonomous Firefighting: Dryad Networks demonstrated an autonomous wildfire detection-and-suppression system in remote Alaska for XPRIZE Wildfire, using its sensor network to trigger drones that extinguish fires without people on scene. Earthquake Science: UAF researchers say a rare Interior quake showed seismic activity patterns before the main event, offering clues for better understanding of how earthquakes begin. Alaska Research & Agriculture: UAF will host free July field days at experiment farms, including permafrost soils, crop trials, livestock feeding, weed management, and biochar and kelp soil amendments. Local STEM in Action: A Kenai refuge project is using tiny solar-powered radio tags to track rufous hummingbirds’ migration routes for the first time.
