French researchers claim to have created metallic hydrogen in a lab: Material can “conduct electricity indefinitely at room temperature”
Metallic hydrogen is a state of hydrogen wherein the element is able to conduct electricity. Scientists have spent close to a century attempting to create this material. A team of French researchers now claim that they’ve done it. Normally, hydrogen isn’t a great conductor. However, physicists since the 1930s have suspected that if hydrogen were to be […]

Say goodbye to flat tires: Michelin develops new ‘puncture-proof’ airless tires
Flat tires may soon be a thing of the past. Michelin and General Motors (GM) have announced the development of a prototype for production-ready airless tires, which could roll out and replace old pneumatic rubber tires by 2025. Both companies say they have been developing the airless tires for the better part of two decades. Michelin calls their […]

Mining the next frontier: NASA invests in optical mining tech for use on asteroids, the moon
NASA is investing in optical mining technology that will make it easier for resources to be extracted from the moon and, potentially, asteroids. NASA, through its Innovative Advanced Concepts (NIAC) program, will begin exploring the feasibility of developing technology that combines robotic rovers with mining tech that could turn mining in space from a science fiction […]

NASA opens the ISS for space tourism and commercial business
The International Space Station (ISS) is now open for business, as NASA has announced a plan to allow tourists to visit ISS starting in 2020. Per year, two private astronaut missions will be allowed to board the ISS for a 30-day trip. This will be very expensive, considering all of the life support systems and necessary […]

Ready for pilot-less flights? German company says self-driving flying cars “in the works”
German startup Lilium has successfully tested their full-scale prototype electric “flying taxi.” They launched an unmanned test flight of their prototype, proving that their flying taxi’s vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) systems were functioning properly. The aircraft took off vertically, hovered in the air and then landed safely. The flying taxi features a relatively simple design. It has an egg-shaped cabin on […]

Clever “Flying-V” plane design is more fuel-efficient than today’s most advanced aircraft
The Delft University of Technology (TU Delft) in the Netherlands, in partnership with KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, is working on an innovative airplane design known as the “Flying-V,” which — its creators claim — uses 20 percent less fuel thanks to its unique, two-pronged configuration. Flaring diagonally backwards from its nose to create the V-shape, the airplane has the same wingspan as existing […]

Researchers design cost-efficient, clean fuel cells that might soon replace traditional gas engines in cars
Fuel cell technology has been around for some time. The first truly modern fuel cell vehicles came from the 1950s and 1960s, when they were used on experimental vehicles such as the 1966 Electrovan, a van which was outfitted with a fuel cell that took up so much space it could only fit two people. Fuel cell technology was even used by […]

Transportation company pitches oversized hydrogen-powered drones as air ambulances or sky taxis
A transportation company is betting that its new oversized drone will, within 10 years, take to the skies as a cargo transporter, a flying taxi or even an air ambulance. The company, Alaka’i Technologies, unveiled the passenger-carrying model of their “oversized drone” near Los Angeles. They call it the Skai (pronounced “sky”), a drone with six rotors […]

Resolving traffic problems with smart tech: Could driverless cars speed up traffic?
A team of researchers from the University of Cambridge believe that fleets of driverless cars working together to keep traffic moving can improve traffic flow by at least 35 percent. This comes after a series of experiments involving a small fleet of miniature robot cars driving on a multi-lane track. The researchers observed that when this fleet […]

Is the idea of meeting aliens really just science fiction? Expert lays his case to prove it’s NOT
Extraterrestrial life may just be around the corner. However, it probably won’t go down the same way science fiction depicts humanity’s first interaction with humans – an advanced and hostile spacefaring civilization looking to stomp on the primitive species from a backwater planet. Still, it does look like it’s going to happen soon in the […]
