Dataset Structure

Data Instances

A data point comprises a "headline" and its corresponding "content". An example is as follows:

{
    "headline": "World-first 'impossible' rotating detonation engine fires up",
    "content": "A team in Florida working with the US Air Force has built an experimental model of a rotating detonation rocket engine. It uses spinning explosions inside a ring channel to create a super-efficient thrust. Most engines use combustion, which is a relatively slow and controlled process compared to detonation. Detonation releases significantly more energy than combustion with significantly less fuel, but detonation engines have proven to be incredibly difficult to build and sustain. A 20-second slow-motion video of the rocket firing is available."
