there aren’t any clutches, gear shiftings, or foot controls on board because the design team wants the user to focus on the ride without worrying about extra tools to boost or power up the vehicle. The post dust moto equips electric dirt bike ‘hightail’ with bulletproof powertrain and clutchless setup appeared first on designboom | architecture & design magazine.
A technique originally developed to combat acid rain has the potential to pull an enormous amount of carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere – while helping to deacidify oceans, restore rivers and boost biodiversity and fish populations.Continue ReadingCategory: Environment, ScienceTags: Direct Air Carbon Capture, Climate Crisis, Carbon capture, Carbon Dioxide, Carbon Sequestration, Ocean acidificat
The new Ariel E-Nomad concept may not look quite as downright menacing and imposing as a Polaris RZR Pro R (or, for that matter, Ariel's own ICE Nomad), but it definitely throws down the gauntlet. With nearly 500 Nm (369 lb-ft) of insta-torque from its all-electric powertrain, the E-Nomad sprints from 0 to 60 mph (97 km/h) on the flats in a mere 3.4 seconds. And with its sustainable powertrain an
Scientists have developed what could be a much quicker and easier technique for astronauts to make building-construction bricks out of lunar soil. The secret lies in heating that moon dust, then sticking it in an aerospace-grade microwave oven.Continue Reading
dubbed ESA space bricks, these 3D printed LEGO-like blocks are aimed for the construction of launch pads and shelters for astronauts visiting the moon. The post space scientists 3D print LEGO bricks with meteorite dust to build astronaut homes on moon appeared first on designboom | architecture & design magazine.
lion sanguinette & jonathan stein developed a platform that allows users to make products following instructions and blueprints. The post DIY vacuum cleaner leaves competition in the dust with one&twenty’s ‘best of best’ award appeared first on designboom | architecture & design magazine.
Future Moon bases may be a bit tidier thanks to an electric shield that protects equipment from destructive lunar dust. NASA's Electrodynamic Dust Shield (EDS) technology promises to tame the destructive dust that clings to equipment.Continue ReadingCategory: Space, ScienceTags: NASA, artemis, Moon
The application of crushed rock to farmers' fields may not only reduce greenhouse gases, it could also boost crop yields by up to 16%. These are the findings of a new study conducted by scientists from the University of Sheffield’s Leverhulme Centre for Climate Change Mitigation.Continue ReadingCategory: ScienceTags: University of Sheffield, Agriculture, Crops, Plants, Carbon Sequestration
