The results of the world's largest ever gene study have revealed almost all the genetic variants that influence a person's height. The study analyzed DNA from five million people and homed in on 12,000 variants that play a role in how tall we are.

Just because a food item may be frozen when you buy it, that doesn't mean it wasn't thawed and refrozen somewhere along the line. A new self-powered sensor, however, would change color to let you know if that had happened.

In Meta's ongoing quest to make the nebulous "metaverse" a virtual reality, it has already released two of the most amazing all-in-one, untethered VR headsets we've ever seen. Now, meet the Meta Quest Pro, a next-level headset with no expense spared.

After months of rumors, the Ford Transit Trail is officially coming to America. Ford promises the new van will be a "turnkey canvas" for DIY builders and motorhome distributors, bringing them "adventure-seeking capability."

A new paper speculates future global food production problems could be solved by growing protein-dense microalgae in coastal aquaculture farms. The modeling boldly projects 100% of global protein demands could be provided by microalgae in 2050.

Scientists at Penn State University have operated at the cutting-edge of battery technology for some time and are now presenting another significant breakthrough, demonstrating a high-density device that can be charged up in around 10 minutes.

Polestar took a little while to fully sharpen its design chops, but the Polestar 3 proves it's found its rhythm. The SUV borrows styling cues from the Precept concept and folds them into a sporty 510-hp electric utility platform with 379-mile range.

Chinese electric vehicle-maker XPeng has been developing a teardrop-shaped eVTOL to serve as a flying taxi of the future, and has just flown it in public for the first time at Skydive Dubai in front of 150 onlookers.

For a few years now, Inov-8 has been focusing in on graphene for its trail running shoes. Now it mixes a little nitrogen into the formula. The nitrogen-injected foam adds a light, soft ride and a response so reactive it almost feels like cheating.

It's no secret that herbicides can be harmful to the environment, plus they're costly, and weeds may develop a resistance to them. New research now suggests that farmers could get the same weed-killing results from a hot biodegradable foam.

Korean startup Plana Aero, founded by the guy that led Hyundai/Supernal's early eVTOL program, has begun work on a new long-range, hybrid-electric VTOL air taxi that'll carry up to seven people about 350 miles at speeds up to 217 mph.
