It’s no easy feat to find dark matter, since it's invisible and barely interacts with regular matter. Now the results are in from one of the most comprehensive dark matter experiments ever run, and while the stuff was again a no-show, the study helps scientists zero in on where it might be hiding.

The video game console war of the early 1980s was waged between Intellivision and Atari. After Atari’s announcement of the VCS, Intellivision has now revealed it also plans to jump back in the ring with a brand new console of its own.

A new computer model could help astronomers to interpret the radiation emitted by supermassive black holes as they rip apart and devour unfortunate stars. These extreme "feeding" episodes are known as Tidal Disruption Events (TDEs), and are thought to be incredibly rare.

The CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing system has revolutionized medical research, but since its discovery in 2012 progress towards human trials has been slow. Now another setback has appeared with the FDA pausing one of the first human trials using the technique in the United States before it even begins.

​It's been a couple of since Dutch high-end bicycle maker VanMoof launched its Electrified S e-bike, and 12 months since the visually arresting Electrified X made its debut in Tokyo. Though both had anti-theft technology built in, the company has now made the latest models even harder to steal.​

Currently, in order to make a diagnosis of schizophrenia, a doctor must assess a patient's reported symptoms … which can be somewhat subjective. According to a recent study, however, an existing optometrist's tool may be able to do the job quickly and objectively.

We initially covered Snøhetta's ambitious design for Europe's first underwater restaurant back in late 2017. The high-profile firm has now revealed that the appropriately-named Under is, well, under construction in Norway's southernmost tip.

It’s not a huge newsflash that green tea has some pretty impressive health benefits, but a new study has identified a specific compound found in the tea that could be recruited into dissolving plaques that accumulate in blood vessels and lead to heart attacks and cardiovascular disease.

Lego has extended its Technic range to include a one-eighth scale Bugatti Chiron. Designers visited the Bugatti factory to get hands-on with the iconic supercar​ and help them create their model, which is 22 in long (56 cm) and issues a 3,599-piece challenge to Lego aficionados.​

Why start from scratch when nature has already designed better robot materials and parts than ours? Japanese researchers have now developed a new way to integrate living muscle tissue onto a robotic skeleton, and make it move in a realistic way that takes some of the strain off.

Don't like the idea of a stranger finding out who you are, based on a photo? Thanks to the facial recognition systems used by social media sites, it's becoming increasingly possible. Scientists decided to do something about it, by turning a couple of AI systems against one another.

​Fans of human-powered transport can already choose between having both feet on a skateboard, or each foot in a rollerblade. If you're more into motorized self-balancing devices, though, you've been pretty much stuck putting both feet on a Segway-like hoverboard. That's not the case with Hovershoes.
