San Diego Comic-Con delivered the usual flood of announcements this week, and buried among the bigger spectacle sits a set that feels personal for anyone who grew up watching the original series. LEGO and Paramount have released official details on the Icons Star Trek: U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701 Bridge, set number 11385.

Losing access to a Google account can feel like the digital equivalent of locking yourself out of the house with the keys still inside.

Solarky Mobility Technologies has put a small four-seat electric car on the road that can gather useful driving distance simply by sitting outside. The SunV measures just 3,150 mm long and 1,491 mm wide, with a wheelbase of 2,070 mm and 190 mm of ground clearance. Its empty weight sits around 660 kg thanks to an aluminum chassis and plastic body panels. That light construction lets a modest 15 kW rear motor and 85 Nm of torque push the car to 80 km/h while returning a claimed 151 km on a full charge of its 10.2 kWh LFP battery pack under the NEDC cycle.

Japan Airlines followed with a formal support agreement that puts its operational teams inside the design process from the start.
