Few explorers have reached the heights, literally and figuratively, that Bertrand Piccard has. He is the quintessential modern explorer, for whom every big mission has a purpose, which generally boils down to environmental and climate-change awareness. In 1999, he was the first person to circumnavigate the globe nonstop in a balloon, calledBreitling Orbiter 3. Then he and André Borschberg, a Swiss entrepreneur and pilot, were the first to fly around the world, in stages, in a solar airplane cal

Nikola’s hydrogen trucks are officially up for auction, one of the company’s last big steps in unloading all of its assets after filing for bankruptcy in February. Auction house Gordon Brothers reached an agreement with Nikola in Delaware bankruptcy court to purchase the hydrogen trucking assets late last week. Over the weekend, Gordon Brothers published the listing and a brochure detailing everything for sale. The auction house says it has around $114 million worth of hydrogen trucks, raw mat

The birthplace of stars begins within large, cold clouds of gas and dust, which eventually collapse under the weight of gravity. Molecular clouds are vast cosmic entities that often stretch for hundreds of light-years, and scientists just discovered a massive one lurking in our celestial neighborhood. The cloud, named Eos after the Greek goddess of dawn, was discovered around 300 light-years away from our solar system. It is one of the largest single structures in the sky, and may be the closes

Scientists have discovered a gigantic, glowing gas of hydrogen gas lurking just 300 light-years away. As detailed in a paper to be published in the journal Nature Astronomy, the international team of researchers spotted the crescent-shaped gas cloud, dubbed Eos, on the edge of the Local Bubble, an enormous cavity that encompasses our entire solar system. The team discovered the cloud by scanning the skies for ultraviolet emissions of molecular hydrogen, the first implementation of such a techn

Water is essential to life as we know it, but scientists are still unsure about how it originated on Earth. One theory is that asteroids express-shipped us hydrogen, essential to the formation of water molecules, by colliding with our planet in its early history. New research, however, suggests Earth already had enough hydrogen of its own, thank you very much. Researchers in the UK discovered previously unknown quantities of hydrogen in a type of meteorite called an enstatite chondrite. I know

WTF?! Kawasaki has a wild concept that'll make you do a double-take to see if it's a joke. Dubbed Corleo, it's a robotic horse powered entirely by a hydrogen-fueled engine – and yes, you can actually ride it and steer using your body. That's right, the Japanese motorcycle manufacturer has unveiled a mechanical animal that might just dispense water out the rear. A video offers a glimpse into the capabilities of this cyber-horse. The vehicle, which suspiciously resembles a Kawasaki Ninja motorcyc

Despite being the most abundant element in the universe, making cheap, clean hydrogen here on Earth has been a surprisingly tough nut to crack. “Hydrogen has always been plagued with a couple problems, One is, how do you make it efficiently? Another one is, how do you distribute it efficiently?” Siva Yellamraju, co-founder and CEO of Fourier, told TechCrunch. Most recent hydrogen startups have been focused on making modular electrolyzers, allowing them to be mass produced and squeezed into shi

In recent months I’ve assembled a long, long list of hydrogen bus trials that ended up with the transit agencies realizing what should have been obvious before they started: hydrogen buses are a lot more expensive and battery electric buses are much cheaper and more reliable. More come out of the woodwork regularly, for example Essen and Munheim in Germany, stuck with 19 buses that they have to drive a long way to refuel at great overall expense, something I wrote about this week.

We are all made of star stuff, as astronomer Carl Sagan was fond of reminding us. Supernova explosions, the catastrophic self-destruction of certain types of worn-out stars, are intimately tied to life on Earth because they are the birthplaces of heavy elements across the universe. Most of the iron in our blood and the sulfur in our amino acids originated in stars that detonated billions of years ago. But we have encountered another, quite surprising connection between supernovas and the human w
