autoevolution 23 Apr 2021, 12:22 UTC · by 1 photo Presently, Earth’s orbit holds only one habitable construction of this kind, the International Space Station. By the end of the decade, though, the Russians are planning to start assembling their own orbital laboratory, the Chinese are eyeing a similar endeavor in the not so distant future, and many private companies are already at work designing what can only be described as space hotels for the world’s rich and adventurous. As far as the plans of the Chinese go, things are not yet entirely clear. The Asian nation makes no secrets ...

autoevolution 22 Apr 2021, 7:58 UTC · by Remember all those terraforming books you used to read, all those movies you used to watch? Well, at least part of them is no longer science fiction, as for the first time ever, a human-made machine was capable of generating oxygen on another planet. 1 photo It is one of the many tasks the Perseverance rover has to complete on Mars. Aside from launching helicopters and gathering samples for a future mission to bring back to Earth, the rover is also used to generate oxygen where there is none. And on April 20, as the world was captivated by the I...

We don’t even know for a fact, for instance, if the...

autoevolution April 22 is Earth Day and, if you’re not ditching your ICE car for the day in favor of a bicycle or planting a tree (which, granted, not everyone can or will do), here’s another way you can do your small but important part. Help decide the color of the world’s first wooden satellite. World’s First Wooden Satellite Takes Sustainable Space Exploration to Next Level 22 Apr 2021, 7:08 UTC · by It may sound like a joke, and the companies behind the initiative, UPM Plywood, Arctic Astronautics, and Huld, are more than aware of it.

Sci-Fi Vehicle Rendering Looks Like a NASA-Branded Remote-Controlled Car 21 Apr 2021, 7:32 UTC · by For humans to safely survey planets and moons before landing on unknown territory, they’ll need to rely on rovers, drones, and other vehicles and trinkets to gather adequate data about the requirements to sustain life. That’s what you see here; a vehicle meant to explore off-world terrains. I'll be honest; I have no idea what this vehicle is used for as the designer makes no mention of anything. Nothing about function, nothing about the drivetrain, or even how it's controlled. Why? F...
