Tesla launches Megapack project in Shanghai

Tesla has officially launched its new Megafactory project in Shanghai, which will produce 10,000 Megapacks per year, according to a statement today.

A signing ceremony for the land acquisition of the project was held in Shanghai on Friday morning, marking the start of what the company called a “milestone project”

The Megapack is a powerful battery that stores and supplies energy to help stabilize the grid and prevent power outages.

Using ‘waste’ product from recent NASA research, scientists create transformative nanomaterials

Researchers at the University of Sussex have discovered the transformative potential of Martian nanomaterials, potentially opening the door to sustainable habitation on the red planet.

Using resources and techniques currently applied on the International Space Station and by NASA, Dr. Conor Boland, a Lecturer in Materials Physics at the University of Sussex, led a research group that investigated the potential of nanomaterials—incredibly tiny components thousands of times smaller than a —for clean energy production and on Mars.

Taking what was considered a by NASA and applying only sustainable production methods, including water-based chemistry and low-energy processes, the researchers have successfully identified within gypsum nanomaterials—opening the door to potential clean energy and sustainable technology production on Mars.

Ex-Tesla executive’s 100% electric boat soars with 100-mile range

“The R in R30 stands for Revolution; we decided to offer something radically different, radically better,” say the creators of the boat.


The Blue Innovations Group, founded by the former Global Head of Manufacturing at Tesla, has officially launched the R30 electric boat.

John Vo, founder and CEO of the Blue Innovations Group, proudly introduced the R30, emphasizing its radical departure from conventional boat designs.

Vo highlighted the distinctiveness of the R30, stating, “The R30 was designed from scratch. We threw out the playbook most boatbuilders follow because if you squint your eyes at a boat show, most boats look the same. The R in R30 stands for Revolution; we decided to offer something radically different, radically better.”

Whisper in the sky: Massive electric plane ready to test vertical takeoff

Butterfly, the inaugural eVTOL incorporating Optimum Speed Tilt Rotor and Individual Blade Control technologies, promises optimal efficiency and a refined ride.


In response to the dynamic demands of evolving personal mobility, the electric Vertical Takeoff and Landing (eVTOL) industry has flourished in recent years. Numerous aviation startups are actively competing to be the pioneers in introducing their respective models to the market.

Aiming to make a significant impact in the eVTOL sector, California-based aerospace company Overair has successfully built and assembled the first-ever eVTOL aircraft utilizing Optimum Speed Tilt Rotor (OSTR) and Individual Blade Control (IBC) Technology. Named Butterfly, the firm claims that it features a “completely novel approach to aviation that unlocks a new standard in quietness, performance, and reliability,” according to a statement by the company.
