This Is What a Drive-By Bombing Looks Like
Or rather, what it would look like: Lockheed Martin's Scorpion glide bombs, seen here floating toward their targets mesmerizing slow-mo from the bay of a high-speed ground sled, will drop from the skies, not the carpool lane. More » -

Sinister Sabre Warrior Drone Will Kill Us All One Day
This is Lockheed Martin's Sabre Warrior, a next-generation plane that looks like something Batman and Darth Vader would fight over for. Instead, some good-turned-evil computer will get a fleet, as part of a plan to destroy us all. It's impressive. More » -

NASA's Phoenix Mars Lander Guest Blogging on Giz
We'd like to introduce our newest guest blogger—the Phoenix Mars Lander. With a successful mission starting to wind down as a cold winter rapidly descends upon its landing site in the Martian arctic, we're pretty happy that Phoenix, (already a prolific Twitterer) has agreed to look back with us on its amazing life over the course of its final days on Mars. Here Phoenix starts with the very beginning of the story. We're pretty sure a spacecraft has never guest-edited a blog before. Enjoy. More » -

Foliage Penetrating Radar Detects Baddies In the Jungle, Bin Laden to Cancel Brazil Vacation

Its precision, even from a very high altitude, is impressive: More »
