Porsche partners with Boeing to make an electric flying car


Okay I know how much some of you hate conceptual products, but this one is pretty amazing. What you see here is an official render of Boeing and Porsche's premium flying car. It looks like a Batwing, and in theory the vehicle would be a fully electric car capable of vertical landing and takeoff. Though these so-called urban air mobility vehicles are still mere concepts, engineers from both companies and their subsidiaries are currently in development with a prototype. 

This thing would solve Metro Manila's traffic problem. More from porsche.com.

The Adorable Sculptures of Yen Yen Lo

These images are from a series of wall sculptures created by Yen Yen Lo . Here you can see her intricately textured ceramic pieces, looking downright adorable. Yen Yen Lo's eye for the unique and whimsical is delightful. Apparently they are not intended for kids under 16. Fifteen-year-olds cannot be trusted with fragile stuff. Get them a Funko Pop instead.

Details from lucid dreams

If Audrey Stomme s' paintings came alive and transformed into celebrities, they would be Alicia Vikander or Cara Delevingne — confident, perky, and unabashedly luxe. The Minnesota-based artist has a knack for blending ink and acrylic paint in striking combinations to create abstract human forms with an exciting curiosity surging through them. Her pieces brim with courage and exhibit the inherent freedom of her subconscious. Sometimes I'm not sure what I'm looking at, but it still fascinates me.

This jellyfish can age backwards and regenerate body parts

Moon jellies have amazing superpowers. They have the ability to regenerate lost body parts - just like Deadpool, create clones of themselves - just like Multiple Man and, recent research has revealed, they can age backwards - just like Benjamin Button. The discovery was made by Jinru He, a graduate student in marine biology at China's Xiamen University. According to National Geographic , Jinru collected a baby male moon jellyfish from the ocean and raised it to a full grown adult. When it died, he transferred the corpse into a new tank, and noticed a sea anemone-like polyp on the specimen three months later. Scientists believe that the discovery could give us better insight into cancer cures.
