A cargo bike is perfect for the city, where short distances make pedaling the kids or groceries plenty practical. But the size of these bicycles is less than ideal for city streets and small apartments. To solve the problem, Tern launches the GSD, an electric cargo bike sized like a standard bike.

The USS Gerald R Ford scored a double first less than a week after commissioning, as the nuclear-powered supercarrier launched and recovered a fighter plane for the first time using an electromagnetic catapult.

​We've seen a number of electronic bike locks lately, and we've also seen several GPS units that let you track the whereabouts of your two-wheeler if it gets stolen. The new Deeper lock, however, combines the two in one bicycle-mounted weatherproof device.

The third season of Formula E ended on the weekend, with Lucas Di Grassi snatching the title in dramatic circumstances. Races in cities, drama and support from big brands have made the category a growing force, but it's far from perfect. Here are three things we'd like to see from Formula E.

As cars become more reliant on connected services, they're shaping as juicy targets for hackers​. Rather than sitting back and waiting for cyber criminals to strike, the UK Department of Transport has created a list of principles designed to make cyber security a top priority for car manufacturers.

An Australian company is working from scratch to build the biggest, baddest electric powertrain ever hooked up to a set of wheels. Top EV Racing is aiming to violently end the dominance of fire-breathing Top Fuel cars at the drag strip, and smash acceleration and landspeed world records to boot.

​​The European Southern Observatory has spoilt us again with the release of an incredibly detailed 220-megapixel view of the famous Orion Nebula, one of the closest stellar nurseries to Earth.

Inspired by biological processes, researchers at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) are developing materials that “die” when they run out of energy, which could lead to time-release drug delivery systems and eventually electronics and packaging that self-destructs when required.

A team from Stanford is planning to create an artificial eclipse with a light-blocking satellite. Thankfully, the Sun’s rays aren’t the target of the system: instead, it will block out distant stars, allowing a telescope on its partner satellite to get a clearer look at exoplanets orbiting them.

The mass extinction event that occurred at the end of the Permian period is the worst in Earth’s history, wiping out a staggering 95 percent of sea life. New research points the finger squarely at a huge volcanic region known as the Siberian Traps – but not in the way previously expected.

Electric power is in sedans, motorcycles and most things in between, but we're yet to see a true electric off-roader. Charge stations are hard to come by in cities, let alone deserted campsites. Undeterred, Bollinger Motors has unveiled its battery-powered truck for adventurous environmentalists.

Even robots exploring other planets need to take some time to unwind and just watch the clouds for a while. The Curiosity rover, which just last week celebrated its fifth anniversary on the Red Planet, has now sent back some of the clearest photos yet taken of extraterrestrial clouds.
