This Week in the Future, February 1-5, 2010
This week has been the gift that keeps giving, as far as the future’s concerned. What could be better than android astronauts, and turtles launched into space? Or the opportunity to wipe your last company progress report all over your you-know-what? We’ve rounded it all up for you in another installment of This Week in the Future.
Check out this week’s future news, after the jump.
- Say Hello to Robonaut2, NASA’s Android Space Explorer of the Future
- Tough, Lightweight Synthetic Honeybee Silk Could Revolutionize Textiles, Composites
- Iran Launches Turtles Into Space, Plans Satellite Mission Soon
- Insulin Can Now Be Made Cheaply from Flowers
- Japanese Shredder Turns Old TPS Reports Into Fresh Rolls of Toilet Paper
After all that good news, we’ve got a little reward for you. It is Friday, after all. We’re giving away a t-shirt. So don’t say we never show you that we care.
