We cannot live without internet (how else will you study science?), But still almost half of the world's population is connected. There are many reasons for this, including economic and social reasons, but some are simply not accessible to the Internet because they have no connection. Google is slowly trying to solve the problem by using helium balloons to beam through the Internet to inaccessible areas, while Facebook has abandoned plans to use drones, meaning that hibernation Companies like are stealing a march. They have taken a different approach by launching their network of showbox-size microsatellites into low Earth orbit, waking up a modem plugged into your computer or device when it flies and saves your data. Their satellites orbit the Earth 16 times a day and are already being used by organizations such as the British Antarctic Survey to provide Internet access to the very extreme of our planet.

Another Silicon Valley startup is set to take deposits on their own all electric sedan as battery company Lucid has started to take $1,000 deposits for their upcoming Air sedan. So far the Lucid has managed to make a 'beta' prototype with plans to start production in late 2020. Lucid is a battery technology company that threw its hat in the automotive ring by premiering the Lucid Air sedan in 2016 . MODEL S COMPETITOR. One of the advantages of going first is that allows the first to be the standard setter. Such is the case with the Tesla Model S. The Model S has set what consumers expect in a luxury electric sedan. The Lucid Air is taking aim at two numbers specifically, range and price. The Air promises a staggering 400 mile range and hopes to come in at $60,000. The Tesla offers a 373 mile range for their top model and starts at $75,000. LUCID AIR The Air is the first automobile offering for the battery company. It was first introduced in 2016 as a...

NASA’s Mars 2020 rover has passed its driving test. The test was mostly a forward and backward maneuver, with a six-wheeled pirouette thrown in. It’s autonomous navigation system was also part of the test. Like a toddler’s first tentative steps, this is an important milestone. This was a significant test for the rover. According to NASA, the rover passed the test and has earned its driver’s license. The next time it drives will be on the surface of Mars. “Mars 2020 has earned its driver’s license.” Rich Rieber, Lead Mobility Systems Engineer, Mars 2020 Rover “Mars 2020 has earned its driver’s license,” said Rich Rieber, the lead mobility systems engineer for Mars 2020. “The test unambiguously proved that the rover can operate under its own weight and demonstrated many of the autonomous-navigation functions for the first time. This is a major milestone for Mars 2020.” Though not exactly autonomous, the 2020 rover is designed to make more of its own driving deci...

Tesla's Cybertruck is one of the most polarizing automobile designs to debut in decades. In fact, you could say it's  driving a wedge  between the various factions of the automotive community. Some people think it looks brutal, aggressive and rugged like some kind of electric dystopian Matrix bro-dozer. Others think it looks like something that Ikea might offer as its first flat-pack vehicle. But what do we actually know about it? Design Well, to start, we know that it's got a thick, unfinished stainless steel body. Stainless steel looks cool, but could present several problems, based on other companies' attempts at making it work on a production vehicle -- namely DeLorean with the DMC-12. The material is tough and resistant to corrosion, but it's also difficult to repair and almost impossible to paint. Tesla CEO Elon Musk claims that the body of the Cybertruck is capable of withstanding sledgehammers and certain types of small-arms f...
