The original Skycamp from iKamper was a true innovator in a now-overcrowded rooftop tent (RTT) market. IKamper has built out the Skycamp brand over the years, adding smaller, lighter models and improving upon existing designs. It is now spinning off the Skycamp DLX sub-line. That reads Skycamp "Deluxe" to our eyes, and the upgraded models integrate creature comforts like LED lighting, cork flooring and inflatable mattresses, bringing along a premium price to match.

Last year, Nitecore put a new emphasis on "flat light" with its EDC27. And while the compact torch isn't the only flashlight to take on a slim, remote control-like form, it does offer one of the best all-around light-to-slimness ratios we've seen on the market. After a little LED and electronics tinkering, Nitecore has bested itself with the EDC25, a slightly lighter flashlight that fires out the same 3,000 lumens but with more throw, intensity and overall runtime.

One of the most stunning concept cars the world has ever seen was shown for the first time at Auto Shanghai this week, when MG took the wraps the EXE181 concept – an aerodynamic electric hypercar with one of the best drag coefficients ever seen in any registerable, road-going vehicle. If it reaches production, it will become the world's most aerodynamically efficient automobile.

Many asteroids can be traced back to their parent body – the planet or moon they broke off from. But for the first time, scientists now claim to have traced the origins of an asteroid back to the specific crater it was birthed from.

One of the biggest challenges researchers face is making injectable medicines into versions that can be taken orally. Oral medications usually fail because they can’t withstand the harsh environment of the gut, which leads to poor bioavailability - a drug’s ability to be absorbed and exert a therapeutic effect on the body.
