SpaceX has made a significant step toward making science fiction a reality. They’ve put in a request to the FCC to launch up to one million satellites to host data centers in orbit. This proposal was submitted to the FCC on January 30, 2026, and it was accepted for file just a few days later, opening the public comment period.
Sergii Gordieiev, the engineer behind “The Q,” is the mastermind behind some incredibly unique innovations, such as transforming regular bicycles into something entirely different. His new project involves disassembling a basic bike, removing the chain and derailleur, and replacing them with a chain composed of 3D printed gears. The end result is a stripped-down single-speeder that delivers power directly from the crank to the wheel, with no sign of chain slap or rattling worn chains.
The 2026 Loki Prevost H3-45, a 45-foot diesel coach, arrives on the scene and completely upends all we thought we understood about what a motorhome should be. Built on the Prevost H3-45 VIP chassis, this beast boasts a 550 horsepower Volvo D13 engine mated with a huge 1,850 pound-feet of torque, resulting in a seriously smooth and confident drive that doesn’t go all dramatic. That chassis, of course, includes all of the bells and whistles, such as self-leveling suspension, electronic stability systems, and driving aids that make long trips a breeze rather than a grind.
Autoflight’s Matrix, which is a game changer in the eVTOL category of the aviation world, is the first of its kind to exceed the 5-ton class, with a maximum takeoff weight of 5,700kg (about 12,566lbs). While the plane’s wingspan of 20 meters, length of 17.1 meters, and short stature of only 3.3 meters may suggest that it is a large craft, once inside, you’ll notice that the cabin itself is surprisingly roomy with its 5.25-meter length, 1.8-meter width, and 1.85-meter height, giving you a comfortable 13.9 cubic meters in which to spread out.
The Nothing Ear (a) wireless earbuds, priced at $59 (was $109), deliver impressive performance without breaking the budget. Many consider them the go-to pick for active noise cancellation in this price range, and after a closer look, you’ll see why. Nothing built these earphones with an incredibly clean, transparent stem that showcases the internal components.
Karma Automotive finally gets some attention after years of quietly building some under the radar luxury automobiles while the major names grab the news. Now they’re taking the next step with something truly groundbreaking: their planned all-electric supercar, the Kaveya, will be the first passenger vehicle in the United States to be manufactured with solid-state battery technology, and it will be used in production.
Humanoid just launched KinetIQ, and the timing seems ideal for this robotics effort. This UK-based startup has created an artificial intelligence framework that allows an entire fleet of humanoid robots to be controlled by a single super-intelligent system. Robots of various shapes, some moving on wheels in warehouses and others walking on two legs in homes, can now make decisions together. They are able to use what they’ve learned in one situation to the next, and the whole crew learns to adapt together.
The Margherita Hut is located at 14,940 feet (4,554 meters) above sea level on Punta Gnifetti, one of the steepest peaks in the Monte Rosa range and serves as a natural border between Italy and Switzerland. As previously said, this wooden hut is a bit of an oddity in that it is Europe’s tallest building while also serving as a simple refuge for climbers who can earn their stay by merely climbing the mountain. However, ‘earn’ means climbing up to it, which is not an easy feat.
The iPhone 17e is expected to be released at any time, with new reports pointing to a February 19, 2026 launch date. If those claims are accurate, it will arrive exactly one year after the iPhone 16e. Apple is on track to upgrade its entry-level lineup in the spring, as usual, while saving flagship announcements until the fall.
