The Tesla Model 3 launched with much fanfare during the week, but it isn't the only entry-level electric vehicle on the market. The Chevy Bolt packs almost as much range and a price to match the Tesla. How do the two electric Americans compare?

NASA scientists have detected a key ingredient for life that they say could form membrane like-structures on Titan, Saturn's largest moon, providing a new clue in the search for life elsewhere in the solar system.​

​Are your selfies the best that they can be? Unless you've done a lot of research into what makes a great selfie, they likely aren't. Fortunately enough, however, computer scientists have done that research – and they've used it to create an app that guides users in taking the best selfies possible.

​​A new NASA study has poured another bucket of cold water on hopes of one day discovering life on the closest exoplanet ever discovered – the Earth-sized world Proxima b, which is thought to orbit in the habitable zone of the red dwarf Proxima Centauri.

​Scientists have discovered a massive “supercolony” of penguins in Antarctica by identifying dark guano stains in NASA satellite imagery. Following a visit to the site, the team used a specialized drone-assisted system to count the population, revealing a stunning 1.5 million Adélie Penguins.

Perhaps best known for its vacuum cleaners, Dyson says its new Cyclone V10 really, really sucks. In a good way. So much so that the company will no longer be developing full-sized vacuum cleaners.​

​There is still a lot we don't know about the path of plastic waste through the ocean, though we are learning more all the time. Small fragments of plastic have now been uncovered in seal poo, serving as the first evidence of the material making its way up the food chain to marine predators.

Vintage Electric offers a few e-bike options for getting around California, and for its latest ride it has enlisted one the Golden State's most iconic figures. The Jeff Clark Signature Cruz has the legend's fingerprints all over it, and offers fellow surfers a stylish way to cruise to the beach.

UPS has slowly been adding electric vehicles to its fleet of delivery trucks. But a new partnership with EV-builder Workhorse sees it get in on the ground floor, with the pair to build zero-emission plug-in vehicles from scratch at a cost comparable to its conventionally fueled trucks.​​​

The world's largest radio telescope is taking shape. The Square Kilometre Array will be of a scale never seen before, and with the first prototype dish recently unveiled, the search for answers to some of the most fundamental questions about the universe and its origins is set to begin.

Cell coverage on Earth may not be as comprehensive as it could be, but that isn't stopping Vodafone and Nokia from setting up the Moon's first 4G network. The data-streaming network will provide communications support for an unmanned lander/rover mission by PTScientists scheduled to launch in 2019.

Wim Hof is an “extreme athlete” from the Netherlands, best known for his apparently superhuman ability to withstand intense cold for long periods of time. To observe what might be going on in his brain and body, scientists have now run a series of scans during these icy exposures.
