This is why astronauts wear those chunky suits as they move around in space. Those suits, among other things, provide a stable inteal pressure that keeps the wearer's body fro...

[embedded content] We've all had fantasies of a future where robot chefs live in our homes and make us any meal we desire at any time of the day. But sadly, robots aren't quite sophisticated enough for home use as of yet. But that didn't stop Simone Giertz, a YouTube vlogger known for making hilariously crappy robots, from making her own simplistic robot to make her a sandwich. On Friday, Giertz posted the video "The Sandwich Robot" to show off all that a robot arm can and caot do for its hungry master.Not surprisingly, the robot -- armed with a plastic knife -- couldn't figure out how to get peanut butter from the jar to the bread. "I had a robo...

[embedded content] One character that would make trailers for "Rogue One: A Star Wars Story" so much better is Jar Jar Binks, said absolutely no one ever. But that didn't stop fan Michael Murdock from making "Rogue Binks: A Star Wars Story" with Jar Jar standing in for Jyn Erso. The video, which was posted Wednesday on YouTube, also features the "Star Wars Holiday Special" version of Princess Leia as Mon Mothma, complete with that horrible Wookiee Life Day song. Other notable cameos include Boss Nass, Wicket the Ewok, Chewbacca Mom and George Lucas himself, with a rather ominous Disney logo backlighting him. Not sick of Jar Jar yet? Murdock also...

[embedded content] If you're frustrated with the limitations of the current generation of quadcopters, a team of researchers at ETZ Zurich, Switzerland has been working on a model that improves on precision maneuverability. Dario Brescianini and Raffaello D'Andrea have developed an eight-rotor aerial vehicle that has six controllable degrees of freedom, rather than the four quadcopters have."Typically, multi-rotor vehicles such as quadcopters are used to perform these tasks [such as surveillance] because of their agility and mechanical simplicity. However, these traditional multi-rotor vehicles are under-actuated, i.e. unable to independently con...

Happy National Vinyl Record Day!You might assume milleials are the ones lining up on Record Store Day to drop coin on the latest special edition, 180-gram, splatter-paint record of the month, but you'd be wrong -- at least in the United Kingdom.According to a new study by market research company YouGov, UK music fans between the ages of 45 and 54 are actually more likely to hit record stores in search of vinyl. By contrast, the study found 18- to 24-year-olds are least likely to purchase vinyl, suggesting last year's sales explosion could be attributed to vinyl nostalgia rather than discovery. The study also unearthed two very bleak statistics that are depressing enough to make any collector...

Cell phone radiation can be a danger to soldiers, but maybe not for the reason you'd expect.Gen. Robert B. Neller, the top officer in the US Marine Corps, says those phones can give away a soldier's position. It's just one of the ways that mode comforts have made troops weaker, in his opinion. Speaking at a panel Tuesday on the future of expeditionary warfare, Neller told the audience that the military is now going back to basics, teaching sailors to navigate by the stars and soldiers how to use camouflage. Those skills hadn't been needed because the enemy didn't have planes, satellites, jammers and the ability to see the electromagnetic radiation spectrum, Neller said. [em...
