According to astronomers from Ohio State University, within the next 50 years the chances are practically 100 percent that the Milky Way will be lit up by a spectacular supernova that will be visible from Earth using infrared radiation-detecting telescopes. Who needs Nostradamus, when gravitational wave detectors and neutrino detectors are around to let us know when a supernova occurs?

Matthew and Marek from Dirty Robot in San Francisco love robots as much as they love craft beer.  What happens when you combine all those things together? This.

Beer makers, big and small, are tapping into consumer willingness to experiment beyond traditional brews. The giants are following the lead of small craft brewers by offering more flavorful styles.

Did a giant kraken troll the Triassic seas, crushing ichthyosaurs and arranging their bones into pleasing patterns?

All the crazy things that you can buy on the black market, and (hopefully) are afraid to ask.

During the cooler months, we like to serve richer, more aged cheeses. Seasonal fruits like figs, pomegranates, grapes, pears and persimmons add a bright and flavorful juiciness to any cheese plate. Pour a Rhone, Rioja, Chianti or other medium-bodied red wine for either plate.

If just thinking about using a tiny touch screen on a smart watch has your fingers cramping up, researchers at the University of California at Berkeley and Davis may soon offer some relief: they’re developing a tiny chip that uses ultrasound waves to detect a slew of gestures in three dimensions.

This week, the future USS Zumwalt left dry dock in Maine and floated into the waters of the Kennebec River. When completed, it will be the largest and most technologically advanced destroyer in the Navy's fleet. Of course, for $3.5 billion (about three times the cost of other destroyers), it better be pretty impressive.

The first 90-day run of the Large Underground Xenon (LUX) experiment showed the detector to be the most sensitive in the world. The experiment did not detect dark matter particles during its initial run, but it has ruled out “possible” findings elsewhere. The research team will fine-tune the detector’s sensitivity and begin a 300-day run in 2014.

Tesla Motors has struggled with range anxiety in the past, but today, the company took a big step towards defeating some of those worries. This morning, the company opened up the first leg of its ambitious Supercharger network, a series of more powerful charging stations made available for free use to Model S drivers.

Apple must’ve sensed my disillusion. On Sept. 20, it unveiled the 5S and 5C, shiny and candy-colored and — according to those clean, reassuring ads — ever so speedy. I could make a return to Angry Birds, I thought excitedly. I could text my friends again. I could get my life back. No longer would Apple hold me hostage; no longer would I be found stabbing sadly at my phone for signs of life.

Last week James Watt, the brewery’s co-founder, put up on his blog an impassioned argument putting the case for an “official” definition of craft beer to be adopted in the UK. He couldn't be more wrong.

Ophidiophobia, or fear of snakes, may not be so uncommon and also could be an innate quality shared by all humans, thanks to neurological evolution. The fear of snakes is among the top phobias for humans and also for monkeys, according to new research

The Raspberry Pi is still the definitive small, open source computer, and a vibrant community has sprung up around it to provide accessories. One of the most popular is the case, because the Pi does not come with one by default. Buyers have to build or buy their own.

One year after the destruction, here's what we know about climate change and storms.

Police say a cellphone saved a Florida gas station clerk from a robber's bullet. Winter Garden Police said in an email that a clerk had just minor injuries after a robber fired a bullet at his abdomen. Police say his cellphone stopped it.

Smoked beers like rauchbier seem to be the most widely hated of all beer categories, and as a semi-recent convert, I get it. Savory beer is a hard thing to get used to. But there's a trick for learning to enjoy smoked beers: pair them with food.
