If you don't know how to code, then you can learn even if you think you can't.Boffins glue self-righting ROBO-VELOCIRAPTOR tail to car
Biologists at the University of California in Berkeley have stuck an intelligent robotic tail on a toy car in an attempt to make clumsy droids of the future more stable. Slow-motion videos of jumping lizards had the team of engineers and biologists scrambling to their drawing boards to come up with the manmade rump-connected balancing technology.

Scientists create most powerful non-nuclear battery ever
The chemical xenon difluoride is normally a mild-mannered white powder, but when you crush it with the pressure of 1 million times our atmosphere, it turns into a super substance. Due to some weird science, all the energy used to crush that stuff is stored inside its chemical bonds, making it a terrific energy storage device.Quantum Levitation Will Blow Your Mind
Let me preface this by dispelling any thought that you might have that I know anything about the quantum physics that makes all of this possible: I don’t know anything about the Quantum physics that makes this possible.What happens if you hold a slinky at the top end, let it extend, and then drop it? Here’s a video setting up the problem: OK, so what do you think?
