We are using solar power arse-about-face; there is a much better way to use this planet-saving technology. — We are in a desperate race to change our ways and save this beautiful planet from our self-made apocalypse. The only issue being, there’s no silver bullet that can single-handedly solve climate change. Take solar power, for example. It is one of the cheapest and lowest carbon forms of energy…

Colossal wants to rebalance the ecosystems down under. The thylacine, also known as the Tasmanian tiger, is one of the most enigmatic animals to ever exist. This wolf-sized marsupial had stripes like a tiger, a pouch like a kangaroo, and a jaw that could open to 120 degrees. For thousands…

History is repeating itself, yet this time, it could worse. — **This article was written before Russia annexed parts of Ukraine and before the Nord Stream sabotage.

International tensions between the US and the USSR were sky-high for decades. While…

The Ariane SUSIE promises to give Elon a run for his money. — SpaceX is crushing the space industry. Their rockets are cheaper, more flexible, and able to carry far more cargo into space than any other company. It is no surprise that they are snatching up nearly every contract going, from lunar landers to billion-dollar satellite launches. How can anyone else compete…

Their upcoming Gen 6 battery looks very familiar… — Tesla has been crushing the EV world since the ’00s, and with the advent of their new battery, the 4680, they seem set to dominate the next decade of zero-emissions vehicles too. Or at least, that was the plan. You see, Tesla is struggling to build these revolutionary batteries. In…

A recent study has suggested a feasible way to use one of the most controversial geoengineering technologies safely and cheaply. — We are in a fight to save this beautiful planet. The scientific consensus is deafening. Our decades of rampant fossil fuel consumption have blanketed this world in a thick haze of planet-warming carbon emissions. Soon, the delicate weather patterns and well-balanced ecosystems we rely on for food and safety will…

Has Tesla pulled a fast one on us? — In September 2020, Musk revealed to the market Tesla’s 4680 battery, and at face value, it looked like it would revolutionise the EV world. It promised to slash the cost per kWh by 56%, produce more power than its predecessor, come in a structural pack (increasing the crash safety of…

We now have the power to avert one of the worst natural disasters. Or do we? — The worst kind of natural disaster hasn’t happened for 65 million years. I am, of course, talking about a planet-altering asteroid impact. As our telescopes have developed over the years, we have started to realise that there are hundreds of asteroids just past Mars that are far larger than the…

The company aiming to make 24/7 ultra-powerful solar energy a reality. — The quest to save the world from our own self-made apocalypse has driven us into a mad rush to adopt low-carbon energy. We are currently trying to make use of everything from solar to wind to even wave energy. But, while these power sources are low carbon, they aren’t perfect…
