When you think of papier-mâché, school art projects and carnival floats may come to mind, but a team of architects has used strips of recycled paper and non-toxic glue to create pair of simple prototype shelters in rural Texas.

We've seen tents that set up in a few different ways, but the Swiss Army-like Beluga from Qaou takes it to the next level. It serves six different roles, before even counting its ability to connect with others to create multi-person super-tents.

An ESA/NASA spacecraft has captured the closest pictures of the Sun ever taken. The images reveal that our star is covered in relatively tiny flare-like explosions that scientists have dubbed "campfires."

Scientists have discovered ultra-black fish that absorb almost all light that hits them, allowing them to effectively hide in the deepest, darkest parts of the ocean. The find could help inform future advances in optical and camouflage technology.

Researchers have created a new camera system that’s so small and light it can perch on the back of a beetle. From there, it can be wirelessly controlled to focus on different things, streaming video and photos back to a phone connected via Bluetooth.

New research suggests a high-fat diet and antibiotics work together to promote a gut microbiome imbalance that can lead to bowel inflammation. The study sheds light on the causal mechanism by which environmental factors can trigger IBD.

If we're to celebrate all forms of human endeavor here at New Atlas, then I don't want to go a minute longer without featuring this 25-year-old London polymathematical wunderkind who seems to be pushing against every boundary of music, all at once.

A new diagnostic tool developed by scientists at Ohio State University promises to drastically reduce the time needed to detect radiation sickness, by measuring a pair of key biomarkers in just a single drop of blood.

New research, led by Professor Emily Shepard of Swansea University and Dr. Sergio Lambertucci of the Universidad Nacional del Comahue in Argentina, indicates that the Andean condor only flaps its wings one percent of the time it's in flight.

Developed and enhanced from the 505-hp LS7 engine, the new LS427/570 crate engine is a whopping 427 ci (7-liter) cast aluminum V8, naturally aspirated and tuned to produce 570 hp and 540 lb-ft (732 Nm) of torque, with a snarling 7,000-rpm redline.

A new Johns Hopkins study, looking at how psilocybin influences a mysterious brain region called the claustrum, is just one of several compelling recent articles shining a light on how our brains generate our experience of consciousness.

The Boring Company is yet to add the finishing touches to its recently excavated tunnel beneath the Las Vegas Convention Center, but a lack of polish hasn’t stopped two nearby casinos from wanting to get in on the action.
