Sunday was International World Day of Remembrance, designated by the World Health Organization as a day to remember lives lost on the roads and share their stories to prevent future tragedies.

Hundreds of locals gathered at the Silverado Ranch Community Center to honor those who died in crashes on our roadways and pledged to do their part to make our community safer.

Traffic crashes are a daily occurrence in Southern Nevada, impacting countless lives. To honor those affected, Clark County participated in the World Day of Remembrance on Sunday. It's an initiative started by the World Health Organization in 2005 and embraced locally since 2017.

Engineers have developed an atmospheric water capture device that efficiently generates drinking water from dry desert air, providing a sustainable solution to water scarcity in arid regions.

A change in how you drive on the Las Vegas Strip is coming soon. Zoox, a company creating autonomous vehicles, plans to roll out a fully autonomous taxi, or robotaxi, next year. The company says while the public will not be driven in the robotaxi until next year, they are already testing these new robotaxis on the strip.

Research groups at 51³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ are working to find a solution to the scarce water situation in Southern Nevada.

The master of science in cybersecurity program at 51³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ launched in 2021 with a handful of students. Now, it’s graduated nearly seven times that and recently came in second on a ranking of master’s in cybersecurity programs for 2025 by Fortune.

The University of Nevada, Las Vegas (51³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ) has been researching an innovative new approach to atmospheric water harvesting with improved water collection rates in arid environments.

How many times do we have to say this? Traffic fatalities keep rising. Pedestrian deaths — people walking on the road hit and killed by vehicles — is almost as high as it was the last two or three years, and we still have two months to go before the end of the year.

So far this year, pedestrian deaths have far exceeded last year’s total, which was the worst on record. Tuesday morning, officers from across the valley joined forces to make a statement before Halloween to remind drivers to share the road. However, even an officer dressed in a neon yellow inflatable costume could not slow down most of the drivers.

To support increasing interest in STEM fields and engineering, which are among the fastest-growing fields of study at the University of Nevada-Las Vegas, this $55-million, three-story facility will support research in fields such as robotics, cybersecurity, biomedical engineering, energy and water and artificial intelligence.

Researchers at 51³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ have developed a groundbreaking technology that efficiently extracts large amounts of water from the air, even in extremely low-humidity conditions.
