Back in May, Royal Enfield revealed details about its plans for its Flying Flea electric motorcycle brand, and mentioned two models. We'd seen a lot of the C6 meant for city streets, and only got a grainy glimpse of the off-roady S6. The company's properly unveiled the scrambler at EICMA 2025 in Milan, and it sure looks like a treat for folks willing to get it out onto their favorite trailheads.

Scientists have long wondered why Earth's overall makeup doesn't fully match the mix of materials found in ancient meteorites. One hypothesis has been that our proto-Earth (what the earliest stages of the Earth is referred to, before the Moon formed) gathered different kinds of material than it did after the giant impact that created the Moon.

There are many purposes that spots and stripes serve in nature, but how they form has been more of a mystery to scientists. Now, researchers have advanced their breakthrough theory – and it could help us design materials that can respond to the environment and change color on demand.

A dangerous type of bird flu virus (called H5N1) continues to circulate among dairy cows in the US. The virus targets the mammary gland's milk-secreting epithelial cells, causing painful infections in the udder. It also leads to large amounts of virus being released into the milk. This infected milk can expose other cows, pets, wild animals, and possibly humans to the virus, a potential threat beyond just the farm.

A finger is among the least practical places possible to strap a watch, and even watches themselves have become a fairly impractical redundancy in the smartphone age. And yet, we want the new Casio G-Shock Nano anyway. A lot. Following up on the 50th anniversary edition ring watch Casio introduced last year, the new Nano adds a beefier build with 200-m (660-ft) water resistance, shock resistance and a working miniaturized strap. This one is truly a G-Shock shrunken down to ring finger size.

It was late 2013 when I bought my first dash cam. I used to commute from Reno, Nevada, out to Salt Lake City, Utah and once or twice a week at night. It was 502 miles door to door, and I could do it in about 7.5 hours. Let me tell you, a lot of wild stuff happens on I-80 across the great barren expanses of Nevada in the middle of the night.
