The Economist Kicks Off Era of Bioprinting for On-Demand Body Parts But You Should Keep Your Skin on For Now 3D Printing Processes

When the Economist, arguably one of the last mainstream media outlet to have never traded off quality for clicks, writes an article about 3D printing, things happen. It may not be The Economist itself that makes them happen but rather just the fact that the top British financial magazine knows exactly when is the right time to discuss a certain topic.

Official Hyperloop Pod Competition Features Some Amazing Prototypes 3D Printing Events

Over the last week, 27 teams have been on site at SpaceX in preparation for this weekend’s Hyperloop Pod Competition just outside SpaceX headquarters in Hawthorne, CA. The purpose of the competition is to help accelerate the development of a functional Hyperloop prototype and encourage student innovation by challenging university students to design and build the best Hyperloop pod. This competition is the first of its kind anywhere in the world. Teams have put their pods through a litany of tests over the last week in hopes of making it into the Hyperloop test track itself. The competition timeline is driven by a team’s ability to complete certain milestones versus a set schedule, so for the purposes of competition coverage. SpaceX will livestream the main events as they happen.
