This smart mirror lets you virtually try on clothes, so you can live out your greatest hi-tech dreams.

This new type of battery can be cut, bent, soaked, shot, and lit on fire—and it still powers up just fine.

Fossils discovered in Nevada contain preserved guts from a mysterious creature that lived 550 million years ago.

Neon burst onto the scene at CES 2020 in a flurry of hype, but not much understanding of what the company wants to eventually achieve. It’s a complex vision of the future, where we live alongside digital humans that look like us, move like us, and can think, learn, and remember.

Seeking Delphi podcast host Mark Sackler is joined by panelists Liz Parrish, Aubrey de Grey, David Wood and co-moderator Keith Comito to discuss scenarios for getting to—and dealing with—a post aging future.

The company’s latest chips—and the bending gadgets they power—are learning to think for themselves.

The magnitude of the Great Lisbon Earthquake event, a historic and devastating earthquake and tsunami that struck Portugal on All Saints’ Day in 1755, may not be as high as previously estimated.

In his study published in the Bulletin of the Seismological Society of America, Joao F. B. D. Fonseca at the Universidade de Lisboa used macroseismic data—contemporaneous reports of shaking and damage—from Portugal, Spain and Morocco to calculate the earthquake’s magnitude at 7.7. Previous estimates placed the earthquake at magnitude 8.5 to 9.0.

Fonseca’s analysis also locates the epicenter of the 1755 earthquake offshore of the southwestern Iberian Peninsula, and suggests the rupture was a complicated one that may have involved faulting onshore as well. This re-evaluation could have implications for the seismic hazard map of the region, he said.

Project NEON might just live up to the hype.
