Want a replica of the golden gramophone record that explains humanity to aliens? In 1977, the American agency NASA had a big dream. They wanted to find the Aliens and make contact with them. With this purpose, the probes Voyager I and Voyager II were sent into space, which also carried a time capsule in the form of a golden gramophone record, which carries images of our civilization and teaches about humanity. Among other things, about how we reproduce, how we transport ourselves and what we eat. We greet the aliens in 55 languages (also in Serbo-Croatian, which was the official language of Yugoslavia at the time: "We wish you all the best from our planet"), and they can also play different genres of music and typical sounds of our planet. There are playback instructions on the back of the disc. On the 40th anniversary of the launch, you can for approx. For 90 euros, consider the jubilee replica of The Voyager Golden Record: 40th Anniversary Edition, which also comes with a book.

Sometimes I walk around the keyboard, sometimes in nature. One time I twist the heels, the other time the kitchen. I press the trigger once, the pedals a second time. And one time I play the role of a moviegoer, another time a nanny. Life offers such a wide range of things that it would be pointless to dip your brush in just a color or two, right?
In the recent period, we have witnessed many unusual innovations in the field of technology, which with their unique functions (sound bubble, dream control tape...) push the boundaries of what is possible or. they discover the hidden potential of already known technological toys (drones, bracelets).

The Chinese have a clear message for the Aliens. "You can run, but you can't hide!" In the Chinese province of Guizhou, a 500-meter spherical radio telescope recently began operating, taking over the status of the largest from the Arecibo observatory in Puerto Rico. It will survey as much as twice the area of the sky, and the parabolic dish will be used to study the universe and search for intelligent life outside our galaxy, and astronomers hope that it will also fill the gaps in the knowledge and understanding of our planet.

Like any little girl, one evening Martine Hill's daughter wanted her mommy to sing her a good night song. But Martine Hill is no ordinary mum, so instead of a classic lullaby, she sang her a song that you would never have thought would ever find its way into bedtime songs. Listen to…
According to the latest data from the Statistical Office of the Republic of Slovenia (Surs), 69 percent of Slovenian names and 58 percent of surnames are unique. This year, Slovenians had as many as 54,000 different names, and Surs counted 114,000 surnames. Is your first and last name also on the unique list?
Almost as quickly as the innovative Slovenian Ironate pizza baking pan bakes your pizza as if it were from a bread oven, the author Sašo Kastelic raised start-up funds for it on the crowdfunding platform Kickstarter, for which he needed only three days. Kickstarter is a place for him to have a lucky name, as he already succeeded here months ago with the durable cardboard standing desk Switch Stance. The steel pan, inspired by our grandmothers' pans, is a cookware, not a pizza maker. The packaging is made of wood and can be used as a storage box.
Now even children can build their own drone. Flybrix is the world's first lego drone that you can build yourself. The Flybrix team didn't originally plan to make a mini drone out of Lego bricks, but the versatile toy turned out to be a brilliant invention that can be used in many areas. When Lego bricks were used during technology testing and proved to be the ideal body, Flybrix was born. There are two different sets that are suitable for anyone aged 14+.
