Some people find tents with poles to be a little too fiddly to set up, which is one of the main reasons why inflatable tents were invented. Aerogogo’s Giga tent takes the easiness factor a step further, by automatically inflating itself.Continue Readin… Continue reading Pole-less Giga tent inflates itself in three minutes
Nestled into the snow-covered landscape, MAD Architects’ Yabuli Entrepreneurs’ Congress Center is now finally complete in northern China. The building combines a striking exterior form with a stunning interior layout that’s carefully arranged to maximi… Continue reading Expansive tent-like conference center nestles into snow-capped mountains
The US Department of Defense has announced that its Strategic Capabilities Office will go ahead with its plan to build and demonstrate a small nuclear reactor capable of being moved, and delivering between 1-5 megawatts of power for a minimum of three … Continue reading US DoD greenlights mobile nuclear microreactor pilot in Idaho
Scientists at Oxford University have developed a novel sensor made of incredibly thin strands of sapphire that can withstand extreme heat and radiation. The breakthrough is billed as a solution to a 20-year problem in the field, and the scientists behi… Continue reading Sapphire fiber sensor can withstand the rigors of fusion and flight
A team of Dutch scientists has taken on the grueling task of designing the perfect piece of chocolate, using novel 3D printing techniques to create designs that shatter in the most pleasurable way when bitten. Clearly, extensive testing is required.Con… Continue reading Physicists deploy 3D printing in pursuit of world’s crackliest chocolate
The allure of of a donut or hamburger can test the resolve of even the strictest of dieters, but a new study has hinted at new tools that can help us resist the temptation. The research explores how exercise can reduce cravings for fatty foods, demonst… Continue reading High-intensity exercise may dampen cravings for fatty foods
A massive study has analyzed the genomes of cancer cells from more than 12,000 patients, identifying 58 new mutational signatures that offer clues to novel causes of cancer. The landmark findings offer researchers a whole trove of new resources to guid… Continue reading Landmark DNA study finds 58 new mutations that cause cancer
SpaceX has found a new home for its satellite-powered internet, inking a deal with independent air carrier JSX to offer onboard Wi-Fi to customers later this year. That makes the airline the first to carry SpaceX’s Starlink internet service, as the pri… Continue reading SpaceX signs its first deal for Starlink inflight Wi-Fi
In one of the longest trials of its type ever conducted researchers have found limiting food intake to a short period of time every day is no more effective a dietary strategy than simple calorie counting. The year-long experiment ultimately found calo… Continue reading Intermittent fasting no better for weight loss than just counting calories
When most people think of 3D printing, they likely picture a relatively chunky object being built from the bottom up, one layer at a time. A new technique, however, allows much more intricate items to be produced – and it does so by changing the color … Continue reading New process changes color of laser light to 3D-print intricate items
