Gatorade has made a smart water bottle that can help to determine your baseline hydration level and monitor post-workout recovery. The Smart Gx Bottle’s cap has a ring of LEDs that alert you when it’s time to top up your hydration levels, gently reminding you to keep your fluids topped up.

The smart bottle can be charged by USB cable, and as long as you remove the cap, it can happily be placed in a dishwasher — which is just as well, as Gatorade is also offering special pods that help to replenish electrolytes and carbs that are compatible with the Smart Gx Bottle.

Hydration levels can be monitored in the unique (iOS-only) Gx App, which also helps users with recovery recommendations, as well as giving nutrition and training advice. As well as the Smart Bottle, Gatorade has also developed a single-use wearable called the Sweat Patch, which, as the name suggests, monitors perspiration levels as a partner to the Smart Gx bottle.

Smart water bottles with hydration level tracking have been around for several years, but Gatorade is a well-known brand, and hopes to use its reputation to offer a premium product that’s a cut above the typical crowd-funded affair.

The Smart Gx Bottle is now available on Gatorade’s website, costing $70. As an introductory offer, Gatorade will throw in a Sweat Patch and a pack of four hydration pods for no extra outlay.

HH Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai and Deputy Prime Minister of the UAE, chaired the first meeting of the Supreme Space Council in Dubai on December 16, 2024. The session highlighted the UAE’s ambitious space plans and took stock of the sector’s economic progress.

The council emphasized the growing role of private companies in advancing space technologies, noting that their contributions are now equal to that of the public sector. Members also praised initiatives like the Space Economic Zones Programme, which are designed to fuel innovation and investment in the space industry.

Discussing the UAE’s space journey, HH Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum remarked, “The national space sector continues to grow and advance, and we take immense pride in the remarkable achievements we have accomplished over the years”.

Sheikh Hamdan also received updates on two upcoming satellite projects: Thuraya-2 and MBZ-SAT. Thuraya-2, developed by Space42, is slated for launch this December. Meanwhile, the MBZ-SAT, created by the Mohammed Bin Rashid Space Centre (MBRSC), will soon follow. MBRSC, a major driver of the UAE National Space Programme, continues to lead the nation’s space-related developments.

Space42 took the opportunity to showcase its advancements, including ongoing collaborations between public and private entities. The company also outlined strategies to promote innovation, boost revenue streams, and create new opportunities for growth in the sector.

The UAE’s current projects build on a growing legacy of space exploration. Back in 2020, the nation made headlines with its Mars mission, successfully sending a probe into the planet’s orbit in 2021. This mission, which is now in its second phase as of June 2024, has been collecting critical data to develop a comprehensive diurnal image of Mars.

The UAE also ventured into lunar exploration with an unmanned mission aimed at studying untouched regions of the Moon’s surface. While the probe ultimately crashed during its landing attempt after communication was lost seconds before touchdown, the effort represented a significant step in the country’s exploration ambitions.
