Matt from Creative Geekery knew from the moment he spotted the cockpit in a Project Hail Mary pre-release trailer that he was going to have to build it. The layout of those buttons and panels hooked him immediately, and despite having almost no reference material to work from, he set about recreating the feel of it using parts he already had around the house. What came out the other side looks like it belongs on a spaceship.
Residents in the San Francisco Bay Area can soon expect groceries and other home items delivered to their door by a large drone. Alphabet stated that Wing will expand its delivery service beginning March 24th, 2026, which has been a long time coming. Previously, this type of delivery was being tested on the Google campus in Mountain View. Office supplies were being zapped into employees’ offices, and they were frequently asking when this sort of stuff will reach their own houses. Wing is now making good on that promise by offering a residential delivery service to customers around the Bay Area.
Jay Leno climbed into the cab of a Tesla Semi, settled into the center seat, and eased the truck forward with a fully loaded trailer in tow, right there on the tarmac outside his garage. The 500 mile range variant, and by all accounts it felt planted and composed from the moment it started moving, even with another Semi trailing behind it.
Plenty of old handhelds spend their retirement gathering dust in a box somewhere, and this Game Boy Advance was no exception. Abandoned, completely dead, and sporting a screen that had burned out from years of neglect, it was not an obvious candidate for a comeback. Odd Tinkering took it apart piece by piece anyway, worked through every problem methodically, and brought it back to life with a handful of modern upgrades that breathe new life into the hardware without losing any of what made it special in the first place.

By the end of the 2019 season, Red Bull Racing set numerous world records for fastest pit stops. However, as expected, the team was still eager to push itself to new heights, literally. They decided to put their skills to the test in a completely new setting, or more specifically, changing an F1 car’s four tires while floating around in the center of an aircraft.
The Frog RS1 catches your attention because of its small size. Shenzhen Frog Technology designed this phone with a 3.4-inch square screen and then attached it to a hinge, allowing the screen to swing up to reveal stuff underneath. Flip it 180 degrees to reveal a complete QWERTY keyboard in one version and a specialized game controller in the other.

Patients within MRI scanners have a difficult time to begin with. You have the continuous thump of the machine while they lie still for what seems like an eternity. Headphones are supposed to help pass the time and block out some of the noise, but standard issue designs just don’t cut it. The common restriction is no magnets or cables near the equipment, so technicians simply pipe the audio through plastic tubes, resulting in a faint and muffled sound.
Aviation enthusiasts now have direct access to the planes that once transformed the way people traveled across oceans and countries. The LEGO company has just launched its new Icons entry, the Douglas DC-3 Pan Am Airliner (set 11378), and every detail transports builders back to the 1930s, when air travel still held a certain mystique.
Astronomers have combined some incredible data from the Hubble and Webb telescopes to get a clear picture of the center of Messier 101, the Pinwheel Galaxy. They’ve managed to create a single, extremely sharp image of the galaxy’s core section, which explains why this place is known as the Pinwheel Galaxy. Right in the center, there’s a bright yellow bulge, which is completely surrounded by those meandering streams of dust and gas that are lit up in some very vibrant colors – hues of orange and brown, with scattered pink and blue patches throughout.
