The Drake tiny house, by Land Ark RV, has a flexible interior that includes two loft bedrooms and another multipurpose room that can be used as an office space or a third bedroom. Providing someone is happy to rough it on the sofa, up to seven people can sleep in the towable home.

Our universe seems to contain a suspiciously perfect amount of "dark energy" to sustain life. But new research suggests that life is still possible even with far more dark energy than we have, and the results have some big implications for the multiverse theory.

Researchers at Trinity College Dublin have uncovered a neurophysiological link between respiration and cognition, offering a fascinating anatomical explanation behind the long-held connection between ancient breathing-based meditation practices and cognitive benefits.

Renowned physicist Stephen Hawking, who passed away in March, is set to be interred in Westminster Abbey in June. In a final show of the man’s wit and dedication to the weirder realms of physics, it seems that time travelers are on the guest list.

"Broken nanodiamonds are forever," or so says a team of scientists at Argonne National Laboratory. By combining broken nanodiamonds with molybdenum disulfide layers, they've produced a self-generating, very-low-friction dry lubricant with hundreds of applications that lasts practically forever.

Some say constraint breeds creativity, and a particularly pleasing place to see this in action is inside the burgeoning tiny house movement. Here we take a look at our favorite tiny home interiors, which make clever use of space to include gyms, wine racks, claw foot baths and four-burner stoves.

​Biologists will already know that Neoptera is a major taxonomic group, which includes almost all winged insects. Now, however, it turns out to also be the name of a planned electric VTOL (Vertical Take-Off and Landing) light aircraft.

With the heavens poised to open up to tourists, a beer is likely to be requested. In anticipation of that day, 4 Pines Brewing Company and Saber Astronautics have spent eight years developing a beer suitable for drinking in zero gravity. Now they need a bottle to put it in.

Key rings can be painfully fiddly things (especially for those of us without much fingernail to work with). A clever new quick-release solution might remove some of the friction, using a precisely engineered interlocking system to slide your keys on and off with ease.

All-in-One computers are a good choice for users with limited space. But you'd still need quite a bit of room to fit HP's upcoming AiO into your living space. Not only is it built around a 34-inch curved display, but it also has Amazon's Alexa cooked in.

Biologists at UCLA have effectively transferred a memory from a trained snail into the mind of an untrained one. The experiment could eventually lead to new treatments for restoring memory in Alzheimer’s patients or to reduce traumatic memories.

JR’s Hut on the Kimo Estate does stick out of its hilltop home, but this off-grid cabin is no sore thumb making tasteful use of sustainable materials to shelter visitors in stylish A-frame accommodation for two.​
