How this guy makes amazing mechanical mirrors
When we think about technological innovation, typically we think of computers or space travel. But one incredible thing we tend to overlook is the humble mirror. While we’ve been looking at our reflections on polished surfaces for millennia, the fact that we can see an exact reflection of what we look like is really astounding when you think about it. And one man took this phenomenon to a whole new level with his mechanical mirrors. You have to see them to truly understand why they’re so cool.
Are space elevators really possible?
A space elevator is exactly what it sounds like. An elevator that connects to a base in space so we would no longer have to use rockets to get people and supplies there. While this may seem like science fiction, some of the greatest engineering minds are taking it seriously.

What you do online is your business
Being stuck at home these days, you probably don’t think much about internet privacy on your own network. But even in incognito mode — even if you clear your browsing history — your internet service provider can still see every single website you’ve ever visited.
ExpressVPN makes sure your ISP can’t see what sites you visit. Instead, your internet connection is rerouted through ExpressVPN’s secure servers. That means everything you do is anonymized and can’t be traced back to you. ExpressVPN also encrypts 100% of your data with best-in-class encryption, so your information is always protected. All that and it won't slow down your connection.
