Scientists in Switzerland have developed a prototype camera capable of capturing clear three-dimensional images of neutrinos, particles so elusive they often earn the label ghost particles. Neutrinos come in huge numbers from the sun and other sources throughout space, yet they interact so rarely with ordinary matter that trillions pass through a person every second without any effect
Crowds gathered the stands at zMAX Dragway in North Carolina for the NHRA 4-Wide Nationals, eager for the Ford Cobra Jet 2200 to go down the track. This electric beast ran the quarter-mile in 6.87 seconds, far faster than its predecessor, the Cobra Jet 1800, which took 7.62 seconds. It’s not just the time that matters; the Cobra Jet 2200 reached an astonishing 222 miles per hour, smashing any electric vehicle’s previous record.a
Shoppers looking for a good gaming machine these days are frequently met with component prices that continue to rise, with many top-of-the-line solutions that would have been affordable a few months ago being exceedingly expensive. Against this backdrop, the ASUS TUF Gaming F16 (2025) appears deceptively low-cost at $899.99 (was $1,299.99), as if it’s almost too good to be true.
Nearly 20 years after the original ZSNES was essentially retired, the team behind it has revived it with a fresh new emulator known as Super ZSNES. The brains behind this project, zsKnight and Demo, decided to start from scratch and rebuild the entire thing from the ground up, resulting in Super Nintendo games that look and run great on today’s computers, phones, and tablets.

Justin White spent 13 months working in his Australian garage on a project that evolved from humble beginnings to something far greater than anyone had anticipated. He had set out to build a half-scale duplicate of the Toyota GR Yaris Rally1. This was not a model, however; it was a single-seater built to travel down real roads rather than rest on a shelf. The finished design piqued Toyota Gazoo Racing’s interest, and they quickly flew both White and his innovation to the Rallye Monte Carlo, the season opener for 2026.
Just a few days before its 36th anniversary, Hubble’s latest image provides a glimpse of a small fraction of the Trifid Nebula, and it is a real stunner…This cosmic marvel is located roughly 5,000 light years away in the constellation of Sagittarius, and it is essentially an active factory for new stars, producing stars left, right, and center from a swirling maelstrom of gas and dust.
David Liu sat down at his computer, his wrist still aching from whatever had ailed it, and picked up a Kensington SlimBlade Pro trackball in the hopes that it would provide some much-needed relief from all the mouse clicking. Four months later, this became a completely new way to manage 3D applications. Simply roll the ball back and forth like you would on a desk to rotate and move objects with natural ease.
Steven from 3D Printer Academy spent months transforming one of his trusted old desktop 3D printers into Galactic Odyssey, a full-fledged pinball machine built entirely from pieces that came directly off his print bed. There’s no hum from the electronics, no snap from metal springs, just clever plastic pieces and a few basic connections. Throw in a steel ball, pull the launcher, and watch the action unfold right next to your keyboard on a small table that begs to be placed just in front of your computer.
Project Kwokcade spent a long time looking for one of those rare Nintendo 3DS retail displays that used to be found in stores around the world. To be honest, original units don’t show up for sale very often, and when they do, the price is just a little out of reach for most collectors, so he decided to be creative and take a new approach. Instead of waiting, he switched to 3D modeling software and began creating each component from scratch.
Weighing in at less than 249 grams, the DJI Mini 3, priced at $379 with RC controller (was $549), is in a class of its own for easy transport and hassle-free carry-on in most areas around the world. Grab it and chuck it in a tiny bag; there are no weight restrictions or extra checks at the airport. That super-light construction does not compromise performance; once those propellers start spinning, you’re ready to go.
