Plastic roads for the cars of the future
Plastic roads are four times lighter in structure than asphalt, assemble like LEGO and turn waste into recyclable resources.

The device developed by researchers at Stanford University bypasses the limitations of solar energy. It is based on the principles of radiative cooling.
An exoplanet called k2-18p is at an acceptable distance from its star and is capable of hosting biological life.
The potential solution to global warming revolves around solar geoengineering: chemical clouds to cool the planet.
In just 10 years we will see 2 missions in search of life on Europe, one of the most habitable places in the solar system beyond Earth (except on Saturday evening).
The use of batteries for vehicles and agricultural machinery promises to revolutionize the cultivation industry by lowering costs and improving production. From large tractors to small harvesting machines, all vehicles will be completely transformed by electric. On the other hand, current agriculture is under pressure: on the one hand the need to produce more food to avoid the food crisis. On the other hand, the need to reduce waste and abuse of land and water. Precision agriculture can increase the production of… Read more
The thermal photovoltaic will be able to allow drones to fly for days and will feed the space probes for centuries.
What are the long-term predictions for humanity, whether it will survive (a very) long time? 6 problems to face in the very, very distant future.
For those who still wonder what served to go to the Moon, here are 10 pieces of modern technology born directly from the Apollo mission.
The world awaits new landings on the moon and then on Mars, but I say: remember the asteroids, here are at least 4 good reasons to do it.
Dragonfly will land near Titan's equator, among dunes apparently composed of layers of solid hydrocarbons. It will be powered by plutonium like the Martian rovers, and with its eight rotors it will be able to cover much more distance than any space predecessor.
Smile! There are not only technologies that can have a negative impact. There are also scary ones that can have a lethal relapse.
Solar panels on the roof and front bonnet for record autonomy: Lightyear One amazes with its performance. But what prices!
One day we may literally “grow” our own energy by watering and nourishing our biological solar cells.
The new wood is very dense and has a strength of around 404 megapascals, which makes it almost 9 times stronger than natural wood.
BioSentinel is one of 13 projects planned as part of the Artemis 1 mission scheduled for mid-2020. 47 years after the last launch of living organisms (Apollo 17, which reached the Moon in December 1972).
Here are the 5 transport revolutions that we will see from 2019 to 2024, between vehicles of all sorts and completely redesigned services will change the concept of travel.
Five years is a long time: enough for the Sun to radiate the energy equivalent to all our reserves of oil, coal and natural gas and enough for the world to revolutionize energy in at least 5 ways. Here are 5 energy revolutions that we will see between now and 2024.
8 and a half billion euros, collaborations with the West and a detailed plan that has already begun and will be completed in record time: in Beijing they mean business.
They are a million times smaller than the pixels we have on today's cell phone displays
The gigantic energy of americium and plutonium allows a range of otherwise unreachable space missions: the UK advances rapidly in this direction.
