AI Observes Exoplanet, Space Probe That Will Almost Touch the Sun, and more - Today In Engineering 4

The video discusses four major scientific advancements. Google's machine learning technology assisted NASA in discovering new exoplanets by analyzing data from the Kepler Space Telescope. A new robotic hand, developed at the University of Utah, allows amputees to regain their sense of touch through neuroprosthetics. Researchers at Duke University have created a method to see through walls using microwaves without knowing the material. Lastly, NASA's Parker Solar Probe aims to study the sun's outer atmosphere, overcoming challenges like intense heat.

How does machine learning enhance the process of identifying exoplanets from the data collected by the Kepler Space Telescope?

What advancements in biomedical engineering are highlighted in the text, particularly regarding neuroprosthetics?

Explain the purpose of NASA's Parker Solar Probe and the challenges it faces in its mission.
