There used to be a middle. There isn't any more. The Common Ground project brought together artists in five cities, each creating a kinetic sculpture connected by a modern communication medium — phone calls, texts, email. Each sculpture has a message, in the hope that we can start coming together more than we're flying apart.
Growing food on Mars can't be that difficult — Matt Damon did it all by himself. But that was a movie, and if we make it to the Red Planet, we're going to need real solutions. National Geographic talks to NASA scientists to find out what the plans are to cultivate food in Martian soil.
When the Super Soaker debuted in 1990, it completely changed the water gun game. No longer were you struggling to hit someone a few feet away with a low-capacity water pistol. Now you could drench someone with a high-pressure stream of water with a range measured in yards. Naturally, filling a Super Soaker with paint is a logical step. Mark Rober takes on his family with custom-made, paint-loaded soakers, and recruits mad-genius Colin Furze for a revenge shootout.
Tap water contamination is one of the biggest issues facing Americans today due to deteriorating infrastructure and inadequate regulation. Over 95% of tap water tested in the US was contaminated with carcinogens and is getting worse, enter Rorra. Their new 2.5 Gallon Countertop System is built using medical-grade stainless steel and features a proprietary Enfinity™ Filter (Electrokinetic Nanofiber Filtration) to target and reduce a wide spectrum of harmful contaminants such as PFAS, Lead, Microplastics and many others. Their filters are engineered and made in the USA and last for 200 gallons per filter (or 90 days of normal use). The system features a convenient indicator system to let you know when the filter needs to be changed or when you need to add more water. Designed to last for decades and is ready to use out of the box — no installation, electricity, plumbing, or handyman needed. Tap into clean water with Rorra today.

Back before screen-sporting digital cameras existed, you had to wait to see the photos you'd taken. The Camp Snap Camera aims to return to this simpler time with a vintage-style, screen-free build. It has only a shutter button and flash selector switch for controls and uses an 8-megapixel sensor and LED flash to capture film-like photos. The rechargeable battery can take 500 photos per charge and the camera can hold 2,000 photos at a time; they can be offloaded via USB-C or SD card. Thanks to its sturdy build and simple design, the camera is extremely rugged, and offers no distractions, leaving you free to enjoy the moment.

With more action, drama, and tension then any summer tentpole film you'll ever see, a marine iguana hatchling makes the run of its young life on Isla Fernandina in the Galapagos Islands. The island is infested with racer snakes, who, for the first time ever, are filmed attacking en masse as the iguana narrowly avoids becoming dinner. For more on one of the greatest escapes ever filmed, check out the behind-the-scenes footage here.
The eerie player piano vibes of the Westworld theme song have already put it on the list of iconic TV title sequences. So to tribute Ramin Djawadi's score, guitarist Eric Calderone decided to take those old-timey notes and replace them with a little electric guitar. The heavy metal cover fits right in with the images of those creepy host constructions from the original.

Trashie's Take Back Bag is the easiest way to get rid of clothing and other textiles you do not need anymore. Simply buy a bag (or a bundle of them) fill it up, mail it back, and Trashie will ensure those items never make it to landfills, rerouting them to third-party retailers Trashie individually vets for compatibility. That means your old T-shirt, depending on its condition, could end up going to someone in need or being broken down to create carpet padding or pet bed filling, among other things. You earn exactly $30 in TrashieCash for each bag you send back, which you can redeem for deals — direct cash equivalent or a certain percentage off — to buy yourself new things from your favorite brands.

Just because you're orbiting the Earth, doesn't mean your vote shouldn't be heard. Astronauts Shane Kimbrough and Kate Rubins were probably the farthest absentee ballots this election when they cast their vote from the International Space Station. But what will happen when we start shipping our citizens off 34 million miles away to Mars?
When Adam Savage gets his hands on a new Honda Ridgeline, you know it's not going to stay stock for very long. So him and the Tested crew modify the truck into a mobile motocross pit stop.
