Electric vehicles have come a long way in the last decade or so, moving people from A to B with ever-improving efficiency, but none quite match the levels of a student-built railroad car called Eximus IV. The vehicle has taken to the tracks at the annu… Continue reading World’s most energy efficient vehicle rolls on to new heights
Yamaha’s wickedly fun MT09 just about nailed the formula for street shenanigans on its debut eight years ago. A lightweight, naked wheelie machine geared to punch its hardest where you’d use it the most, it encouraged bad behaviour every time you threw… Continue reading Yamaha overhauls its MT09 hooligan streetbike, adding all the goodies
UK researchers are suggesting levels of antibodies produced by the immune system in response to SARS-CoV-2 may significantly drop in the months following an initial infection. Testing hundreds of thousands of subjects over three months, a study saw the… Continue reading Massive UK study finds coronavirus antibodies wane over several months
NASA and ESA have formally entered into a partnership agreement for building NASA’s Artemis Gateway deep space outpost. The agreement signed on Tuesday is part of the US effort to attract international partners for the lunar exploration project.Continu… Continue reading NASA and ESA finalize agreement to build Gateway deep space outpost
Scientists exploring the Great Barrier Reef have discovered a huge, never-before-seen coral reef that is taller than the Empire State Building. Standing detached from the main reef, the massive structure is the first new reef to be discovered in the ar… Continue reading New spire found in Great Barrier Reef dwarfs the Empire State Building
Tiny nanoscale materials offer unique properties, and one way scientists are looking to leverage these is by taking aim at cancer cells of different kinds. A research team in the UK have demonstrated how an adaptation of this technology can be used to … Continue reading Bullet-like nanoparticles heat and destroy cancer cells from the inside
With perhaps a few exceptions, battery-electric multicopter drones typically can’t fly for longer than about 30 minutes. Such is not the case, however, with their hybrid counterparts – one of which recently broke its own endurance record.

While we have heard about “electronic tongues” recently, most of them have turned out to be flavor-assessing sensors that (disappointingly) didn’t look like actual tongues. Such is not the case with a new biomimetic tongue, however, which could have so… Continue reading 3D-printed “biomimetic tongue” works like the real thing
Having been responsible for designing Britain’s Antarctic Research Station, in addition to many other polar bases, Hugh Broughton Architects certainly knows a thing or two about keeping humans alive in harsh conditions. The firm is using this experienc… Continue reading Polar architecture experts are building experimental Mars habitat
Often made from plants, recycled material and various forms of organic matter, bioplastics promise a number of advantages over conventional plastics produced through fossil fuels. These include less energy-intensive production, faster biodegradation in… Continue reading Study finds bioplastics to be just as toxic as regular plastic
