In March 2016, Made In Space sent their second 3D printer to the International Space Station, giving interplanetary travel a huge boost in the process.

Wool isn't just for sweaters. Giesswein takes the age-old fabric and transforms it into a performance sneaker. The Merino Runners features a sock-like upper made from Merino wool with 3D Stretch technology, providing flexibility and durability. Naturally odor-resistant, the material won't smell, so going sockless is encouraged, and its thermal-regulating properties keep feet warm in the winter and cool in the summer. It's mounted on an EVA sole that's lightweight and flexible and is ribbed for traction, while an interchangeable footbed provides cushion to support miles on the pavement.

While we might not ever make it, spacecraft with sails designed to ride a massive beam of light to Alpha Centauri, the nearest star to Earth, can.

Turns out that the the "character" Nick Offerman and the man Nick Offerman aren't too philosophically apart. In this sit-down interview with Sam Jones, Nick gives his thoughts on the all-American pastime of buying stuff, the importance of making things, and giving children the opportunity to see that not everything has to come off the shelf of a massive box store.
