Stabi extends its arm from the shadows with a large barrel mounted to its wrist, and what is inside that barrel is not subtle. A kilowatt class laser capable of cutting through wood at a distance or turning stone into a glowing, molten mess sits at the heart of the setup, mounted in the back of a truck and pointed at a series of test targets. The whole rig was built by Prop Department to explore how high energy laser systems might be put to work in future productions.
Caviar created an extremely limited run of this Steve Jobs edition iPhone 17 Pro, only 9 copies. Each has a genuine piece of Steve Jobs’ iconic black Issey Miyake turtleneck, neatly tucked within the phone. The turtleneck piece is casually tucked away in the center of the back panel, but it’s still visible, shielded by a raised titanium Apple logo that serves as both a seal and a prominent focus point.
Apple’s MacBook Neo brings the A18 Pro chip from the iPhone 16 to an entry level laptop priced to compete at the accessible end of the market. To keep it slim and completely silent, Apple ditched fans entirely in favor of a graphene thermal pad sandwiched between the processor and the chassis to dissipate heat. It is an elegant solution for everyday tasks, but it puts a ceiling on how hard the chip can push when the workload gets demanding.

During Expedition 72, NASA astronaut Don Pettit used his free time on the International Space Station to work on a quite interesting side project. He went ahead and coaxed an early purple potato to sprout in a small improvised garden he’d created on his own. He’d removed a bit of the tuber and placed it in a container with grow lights connected, fastening it in place with a small piece of Velcro. This simple system kept everything stable even as the station zoomed around the Earth.
The DJI Mini 3, priced at $299 (was $419), is the type of drone that keeps people coming back for more, and the reasons why are undeniable. With a weight of just under 249 grams, it falls under the FAA registration radar in the United States, allowing you to pull it from your backpack and fly in no time, with no paperwork or licensing to come in the way. That kind of spontaneity transforms a last-minute trip to the park into a legitimate aerial photography opportunity.
Riders in one European capital will soon be able to summon a self-driving car and pay for it using a familiar app. Uber is collaborating with Pony.ai, a Chinese autonomous car technology startup, and Verne, a Croatian company familiar with the local scene. On March 26, 2026, the three firms revealed their plans, and they’ve decided to kick things off in Zagreb.
The Meadow slips into a pocket without a second thought. Measuring just 1.3 by 2 by 0.4 inches and weighing four ounces, it feels closer to a good luck charm than a conventional smartphone. The recycled polycarbonate shell has a smooth, understated feel that should hold up well to everyday use, and the three inch square display sits centered in that compact body, clear enough for a quick glance but small enough that lingering on it for too long simply isn’t that appealing. That last part is rather the point.
Astronomers have just released what may be the sharpest views of Saturn ever captured, courtesy of the Hubble and James Webb space telescopes working in tandem. One image was taken in visible light and is breathtaking on its own, while the other, captured in infrared, pulls back the curtain on an entirely different layer of detail across the planet’s clouds, rings, and poles.
DJI just revealed their brand new Avata 360 today, and it’s already getting the FPV crowd thrilled. This compact drone recreates the adrenaline thrill of flying as if you were there in person, complete with a camera system that records the entire 360-degree view every second you’re in the air.
Sikorsky has completed flight testing and handed the first UH-60MX Black Hawk over to the US Army this week. The aircraft has landed at Fort Eustis, Virginia, where the Combat Capabilities Development Command will put it through its paces. From here the real testing begins, with the helicopter expected to demonstrate just how much it can handle on its own.
