Found this cool illustration depicting what extra-terrestrial life-forms might be watching right now, assuming they exist, have the relevant technology and are monitoring our TV signals.
A guy has created a thermal lance, built out of bacon, to cut metal.

It’s a stereotypical geek (nerd, perhaps) dream – the invention of underwear that you don’t have to waste time changing every day yet remains pong free.
Created by boffins in Tokyo, J-Ware “stink-free” underwear is being tested by Koichi Wakata, currently orbiting the earth on the International Space Station.

The Supernova Cosmology Project announced that it has a found an “unidentified object“. Before you all go painting pictures of martians in your head, the said object is located within the area designated as CL1432.5+3332.8.
The said cluster was observed to grow in luminosity for about 100 days and reached a brightness of the 21st magnitude [...]
