Yeah, quantum levitation is the freakiest thing going - have to get myself some.  Have a look at this demonstration - watch it right the way through!  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GtRsGcAY26c&feature=related

It's the fact that they are going to try this on a 1:1 scale.

The Wipeout thing is a lovely fake, but the technology it apes is very real - and for my money even freakier than the fiction!

Yeah, the wipeout thing looks to be a viral for the release of Wipeout on the PS handheld.

The vapour looked suspiciously CG from the off, but it was a nice idea coming off the back of the quantum lock videos that did the rounds a while back - they needed the person to push it, but I don't know if the wipeout one is possible, I'm guessing the ad budget meant that doing it in CG was cheaper...

A new look at the "Eye of God" - or is it the remains of the Death Star? Nope, it's a planetary nebula located in the constellation Aquarius, about 700 light-years away from Earth. How lucky we are to live in an age when technology can show us such wonders.

This is how it starts.  First we're all "oh look at the little flying machines", then - BAM! we're huddled in a cave listening to John Connor on the radio!
