A young startup called Relativity is pushing space technology forward by pushing 3D printing technology to its limits, building the largest metal 3D printer in the world. And other major companies anxious to try these new ways of manufacturing, too.
A global 'space race' of ships has Technocrat engineers battling for supremacy in the world's coming fleet of autonomous shipping vessels. These types of ships will be fitted into the the globalist automated supply chain
Graphene, the "wonder material" composed of a one-atom-thick sheet of linked carbon atoms, is the world's strongest manmade material. Now, scientists have used it to create a new type of concrete that is much stronger, water-resistant and eco-friendl
***Update: Our good friend Alex Guberman had an opportunity to travel to a home with one of the first Tesla Solar roof installations. He gets to check it out firsthand and interview the homeowners. We previously shared another of the first installati
Economists expected a jump of 0.5% in construction spending. Instead, spending came in at 0.1%.
As a teenager working for his dad's construction business, Noah Ready-Campbell dreamed that robots could take over the dirty, tedious parts of his job, such as digging and leveling soil for building projects.
Engineers at the University of Maryland have created a new nanowood material that's as insulating as Styrofoam, but stronger and much more environmentally friendly and 30 times stronger.

Cheaper, plant-based carbon fiber could be used to make lighter cars that consume less fuel.
Using two types of "designer" quantum dots, researchers are creating double-pane solar windows that generate electricity with greater efficiency and create shading and insulation for good measure. It's all made possible by a new window architec
If every window in the United states was converted to transparent solar cell windows with 10% solar efficiency then researchers claim it would produce 80% of the electrical needs of the USA.
It's getting to the point where it seems like adding a dash of graphene can improve just about anything.

It looks like chain mail, but unlike the ancient armor, NASA's fabric isn't welded together. Instead a 3-D printer extrudes stainless steel as a continuous sheet of material with different properties on each side.
Consumer Reports, which six months ago was skeptical about the viability of Tesla's Solar Roof product, has once again "done the math" using newly announced pricing estimations.
Waterjet cutting is a proven method for creating intricate and precise cuts with nearly any kind of material, although the machines are big and expensive.
