An experimental robotic gripper from Switzerland’s École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) utilizes a pair of lobster tails as twin fingers. Because it uses actual animal tissue, this “hand” isn’t bio-mimicked. It’s bio-derived.

Downsizing to a tiny house doesn't mean giving up all your home comforts. The Juniper, by Rewild Homes, leans into this idea and is arranged around a spacious single-floor layout that boasts a large bathroom with a full-sized bathtub.

Archeologists say they have solved the 6,000-year-old mystery of Armenia’s “dragon stones" – massive carved monoliths scattered across high-altitude slopes and pastures where no ancient settlements ever existed. It's a story of worship and water.
