RedShift

Astronomers have precisely measured the distance to the oldest and farthest known galaxy. Light left GN-z11 around 13.4 billion years ago, when the universe was a cosmic toddler, meaning this galaxy marks the very edge of the observable universe.

Astronomers at Ohio State University have taken the mean temperature of cosmic gas at different distances and ages, and found that it’s roughly 10 times hotter today than it was 10 billion years ago, thanks to the evolution of galaxies and clusters.

California-based Alta Motors has announced its 2018 Redshift lineup, and while performance is up, prices are down by up to US$4,500. With up front cost still being a major barrier to new buyers, this news could be huge for electric motorcycles.

European astronomers have discovered a planet slightly more massive than Earth, orbiting a star in the Alpha Centauri triple star system.

BRD Motorcycles' 2013 RedShift range of off-road electric motorcycles are claimed to have the performance of a top-end 250cc four-stroke race motorcycle, and there's even a "stealth" police version.

BRD is throwing its hat into the rapidly expanding electric motorcycle ring.
