Living in as small a space as a tiny house can sometimes feel a little claustrophobic, but the Kanuka tackles this by opening up to the outside with two double glass door entrances, filling the home with natural light.

Startup ArcBlue is offering a pre-Kickstarter look at an astrophotography system named the C42 built around a full-frame Sony sensor, modular lens support, guided tracking and automation designed to simplify serious deep-sky imaging.

Many campers love a compact trailer for towing but a space that lives like a small home at camp. The new Ortsan Mini House Caravan does both, towing small but blossoming open upon arrival to nearly triple its living space.

The Tyrannosaurus rex (T. rex) is known for its bone-crushing bite, gigantic size, and famously small forelimbs. But why these large, carnivorous theropod dinosaurs evolved tiny arms has long been debated.

Paraquat is one of the world’s most widely used herbicides. It’s also highly toxic, and some research points to a link with Parkinson’s disease. But what does the evidence really say?

In what must have been some of the most enjoyable experiments ever, scientists have studied nearly 50 dogs of all shapes and sizes to find a better way of assessing paw dominance – something we believe to be a predictor of behavioral issues.

Two research teams have independently delivered working versions of a radical new kind of timekeeping device based on the jitter of an atom’s nucleus, realizing a goal decades in the making.

The condition affects how certain adult teeth form in early childhood. It isn’t caused by lack of brushing, sugar or poor dental habits, but by something that disrupts the enamel formation before the teeth even erupt.

Anti-aging peptides have become one of the most talked-about experimental treatments in this emerging area of science – and one in particular, GHK-Cu, has shot to fame this year. So, what is it exactly? We separate the reality from the hype.

Looking forward to a future where laser beams replace power lines, DAPRA's Persistent Optical Wireless Energy Relay (POWER) program has set new records for transmitting more power wirelessly over longer distances.

I'm a sucker for a good "reinventing the wheel" story, and David Henson's 'SurfacePlan' concept is an odd a take on one of humanity's greatest inventions as we've seen in a long time. It's designed to replace engines and drivetrains altogether.

Kawasaki Heavy Industries has pulled the covers off perhaps the most outrageous concept vehicle we've ever seen. The Corleo is a two-seater quadruped robot you steer with your body, capable of picking its way through rough terrain thanks to AI vision.

Following construction restarting earlier this year, more details have been revealed on what is arguably the world's most ambitious architecture project: the mind-bogglingly tall JEC Tower, which is currently rising in Saudi Arabia.

While cutting back on salt intake has long been a mainstay in treating high blood pressure, new research suggests that upping potassium intake might have a greater effect. It might be time to stock up on bananas, apricots, and sweet potatoes.

Who could possibly compare to Superman, the Man of Steel? Definitely not a man of plastic! Right? Wrong. Scientists have discovered that unconventionally shaped plastics may rival steel bars as reinforcement materials in construction concrete.

Volkswagen has added an 8-seat option to the Multivan lineup, turning its MPV into an even more capable people-mover. The 8-seat option won't be on offer in the new California camper van range, but there will indeed be an available 8-seat camper.
