It may seem like a horse-drawn Zeppelin, but Astro Mechanica seems to be all-in on its revolutionary hybrid-electric supersonic jet engine as it partnered with UK-based engineering firm Helix to add ...

Data center logistics are becoming harder and harder to fathom as the centralization of compute power continues to scale beyond all reasonable proportions. We've reported extensively on the incredible ...

This week, researchers from the University of California published a new study detailing an innovative approach to passive cooling. It can convert the Earth's passive heat into a small but steady ...

It seems like only yesterday that Lindsey Stirling was buzzed off America’s Got Talent by Piers Morgan. Morgan said she wasn’t talented enough to play violin and dance at the same time. (Morgan forgot ...

The A-26 is a conventional submarine, meaning it is not nuclear-powered. It can remain submerged for weeks due to its three Stirling engines, which do not rely on air to run. Stirling engines, which ...

We may receive a commission on purchases made from links. For much of the U.S., the concept of an engine block heater is a foreign one. Even areas like the mile-high city (Denver), which faces its ...

His Stirling engine was much safer because it worked on a different principle than steam. Instead of relying on the expansion of high-pressure steam, the Stirling engine is a closed system with a ...

Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: Stirling engines, which have been around for centuries, leverage temperature differentials in a gas to do light mechanical work. A new study ...

This engine won't be fueling interstellar missions, but still finds an unexpected way to use deep space energy to generate power. Reading time 3 minutes Deep space may provide hidden sources of energy ...

Professor Jeremy Munday has developed an experimental engine that can generate mechanical power from the temperature difference between the Earth and deep space when placed outdoors at night. The ...

Where do offbeat project car ideas come from? The wilder ideas generally start off as almost a joke before the laughter dies down and the builder is left thinking that it’s actually a pretty cool idea ...

Iain Stirling is the voice of our summers. As the narrator of Love Island, Love Island USA, and Love Island Games, Stirling’s distinguishing Scottish accent has gotten him recognized in the most ...
