The Nissan Hyper Tourer is the third in its series of advanced electric vehicle (EV) concepts that will feature at the Japan Mobility Show starting October 25. The Hyper Tourer concept is geared toward individuals who appreciate […]

It’s been 30 years since a group of scientists led by Carl Sagan found evidence for life on Earth using data from instruments on board the Nasa Galileo robotic spacecraft. Yes, you read that correctly. Among his many pearls of wisdom, Sagan was famous for saying that science is more than a body of knowledge […]

Throughout the year, there are different meteor showers that all have different properties and can be more or less easy to spot. During October, it’s time for the Orionids, one of the best known meteor showers and also the most reliable. This is also an amazing opportunity to venture outside, observe them yourself and find […]

Suzuki MOQBA is next-generation four-leg mobility for those facing transportation barriers such as steps. Suzuki MOQBA is a new mobility that can move smoothly with wheels on flat roads, and seamlessly move on steps with legs. A proposal for next-generation mobility utilizing wheels and four legs, even in a region with developed public transportation. By […]

Acro eVTOL ultra-light aircraft concept Acro eVTOL ultra-light aircraft concept was created to fulfill the booming demand for new experiences and adventures in yachting. Klissarov Design designed Acro, an ultralight recreational eVTOL concept vehicle providing “the ultimate 3D flight joy experience; aerobatic, fun and emotional.” The vehicle’s propulsion system is based on cutting-edge cycloidal rotor […]

Imagine a particle so small that it’s the same relative size to a football as that ball is to the planet Earth. That’s the size of a quantum dot – a type of nanocrystal that changes colour depending on its size, and was once thought impossible to actually produce. Today, they’re found in some high-definition […]

Making roads on the Moon.  The idea of melting sand to make roadways was first proposed for Earth, back in 1933. An ESA project tested the creation of roadworthy surfaces and landing pads, by melting simulated moondust with a powerful laser. When astronauts return to the lunar surface they are probably going to be doing […]

SHANE Revolutionary Two-wheeled Electric car SHANE revolutionary two-wheeled electric car automatically reacts to keep the car in perfect balance. Created by Shane Chen, SHANE’s parallel wheels automatically react relative to the car body to keep the car in perfect balance, even at high speeds. Intended to be practical and efficient for everyday urban and highway […]

The simulated universe theory implies that our universe, with all its galaxies, planets and life forms, is a meticulously programmed computer simulation. In this scenario, the physical laws governing our reality are simply algorithms. The experiences we have are generated by the computational processes of an immensely advanced system. While inherently speculative, the simulated universe […]

Is there anything worse than a disappointing first date? It is particularly disheartening when a potential partnership that had so much promise turns out to be one big personality clash. My team’s recent study suggests that other animals may also need to navigate personality clashes, or else face disastrous consequences if they pick the wrong […]
