The Chilean was mistakenly paid 286 salaries, he received almost 165.4 million pesos, instead of the expected 500 thousand pesos.

The employee himself reported the error to the company. The financial department checked the information, found out that they overpaid the salary and asked to return the excess funds through the bank. The man promised to visit the bank branch the next morning. But he didn’t come the next day either, and after that he filed documents for dismissal - through a law firm and disappeared. In general, the company intends to sue, accusing the employee of misappropriation of funds. The management hopes that they will be able to return at least part of the peso.

Drones for Africa.

Wingcopter is preparing 12,000 cargo drones for the world's largest deployment across Africa over the next five years. Wingcopter 198 is a device with a wingspan of 198 cm and the ability to carry up to 6 kilograms of cargo. It can move at speeds up to 144 km/h for a distance of up to 110 km. The Wingcopter is designed to operate completely autonomously, but the operator can also use the station software to control and control up to 10 drones at the same time. Such operations make a lot of sense in Africa, where insufficient infrastructure is an obstacle not only to economic development, but also to issues such as health care. This fleet of drones will enable the rapid delivery of goods, medicines, laboratory samples and vaccines to remote areas.

Chemists have learned to grow plants in complete darkness.

American scientists have developed a new technology for artificial photosynthesis and grown plants in total darkness. They used top dressing - acetate, the main component of acetic acid. It was obtained from carbon dioxide and water. Thanks to him, plants were able to develop in the dark. Electricity for catalytic processes was generated by solar panels. As a result, artificial photosynthesis was 18 times more energy efficient than usual. The method will help to significantly increase the energy efficiency of agriculture and feed more people by sowing less land. It can also be used in space.
