Andrew Martin’s new indie film imagines a world where the British secretly sent the first man into space years before the Russians or Americans ever could—but as the trailer shows above, things start going sideways for the poor guy pretty fast.
A table-top RPG set in an alternate sci-fi version of the 1970's leads the charge in this weeks look at the coolest crowdfunding projects across the web - but that's not all. There's also nerdy nail wraps, a stop-motion film about one man's journey through space, 3D puzzles of Dinosaur skeletons, and even more!
Do you have a George Costanza-sized wallet? If you're like any red-blooded American, then you probably do, which means you probably also have back problems. We can't help you with damage you've already inflicted, but Capsule will help you ditch that bulge with its cleverly designed Minimalist collection wallet.
SpaceX have published this neat interactive panorama of the inside of their Dragon capsule, America's first private spacecraft.
Back in May, the SpaceX Dragon made a historic rendezvous with the International Space Station as a demonstration. It went so well, that NASA contracted 12 more flights, and now the time has come for the first one to launch. Can they pull it off again?
Space X and NASA are moments away from making history. The Dragon capsule is making its final approach toward docking with the International Space Station, marking a new chapter both for NASA and privatized space exploration. It's currently projected to dock at 10:02am EDT. You can watch it all right here:
On June 2010, SpaceX launched into orbit a simplified version of their Dragon capsule. It was the first private spaceship in history, and it was a complete success. Now they are human testing it, getting it ready for its first manned flight.
There are no hospitals in space. The closest E.R. is back on Earth, and astronauts can't exactly jump in a cab to get there. So what happens if the sun burps out a massive blast of radiation while an astronaut is space-amblin' by?
No broken MacBook and pair of old routers, but you do have a Time Capsule gathering dust? Turn it into a gift box, adding hinges and a silk cushion. Just don't put an engagement ring in there, trust me. [Instructables]
Were the humble, boring old fire extinguisher to be reworked in the style of this concept design, dubbed Shooter, they'd be grabbed from the wall and used inappropriately in offices waaaay more frequently. Because, as its name suggests, the device is meant to behave like a friendly Nerf-style grenade launcher, aiming…
Here it is, fellow space-geeks, the first official image of the new joint Russian-European manned spacecraft, and we'll be damned if it doesn't look like something out of the Ikea Kitchen Collection. It's made to ferry up to four people (cosmonauts or astronauts?) to the moon and back, with a two-stage…
Well, that didn't take to long; aptly named Flickr user, nakedmac has taken the plastic white goodness from off of his Time Capsule, so we can all have a look under its panties. Things we have learnt; 1). There is a fan to get Time Capsule's cool on. 2). Nakedmac was one of those kids that destroyed his toys two…
This rugged fire-extinguisher concept contains both an oxygen supply to help you breathe and exploding powder pellets that you roll, grenade-like, into a fire to put it out at a distance. We're slightly worried at the idea of having an oxygen tank near lots of flames, but hey ho, it's great that designer Woo Seok Park…
Never before have we seen a hotel whose rooms let you pretend you're an officer embarking on the maiden voyage of a new starcruiser. If you're in London next month, try out the new Yotel, a Japanese capsule hotel in the Queen's backyard.
SUCK UK (yes, their actual company name) has designed this very unique capsule LED clock and message display. It has a whole slew of LEDs and can be programmed to stream messages along with the time and date. The capsule design makes it perfect for that contemporary or futuristic-designed home. I can imagine it now...…
