High-end 3D printer art
''3D printers are great for complex engineering projects, but what happens when you try to get creative with it?'' [source]
micro-robot
''An array of electromagnets is used to create a three-dimensional parabolic magnetic field. The robot is magnetized itself and sits on top of the parabola, supported by the interaction between its own magnetic field and that created by the electromagnets.'' [source]
Cadillac Volt in 2011
''GM has always said the Voltec drivetrain — which uses an electric motor to drive the wheels and a 1.4-liter gasoline engine to recharge the battery — will be the basis of a range of models.'' [source]
Black Coral Forest
''Using an underwater robot, marine biologists at Italy's Institute for Environmental Protection and Research (ISPRA) found almost 30,000 colonies of Antipathella subpinnata coral at a depth of between 55 and 100 meters (180 and 328 feet).
The coral was found near the town of Scilla, off the coast Calabria in southern Italy.'' [source]
Third-World Stove Soot and global warming
''“It’s hard to believe that this is what’s melting the glaciers,” said Dr. Veerabhadran Ramanathan, one of the world’s leading climate scientists, as he weaved through a warren of mud brick huts, each containing a mud cookstove pouring soot into the atmosphere.'' [source]
Ancient Ecosystem Found in Ice
''Beneath a glacier in Antarctica, scientists have discovered a community of microbes growing in frigid pools of salty water.'' [source]
Future-proof homes
''See how architects are trying to future-proof homes against the higher sea levels and more frequent hurricanes our changing climate is bringing our way'' [source]
