This month we look at the most plausible flying car to date and how some others are also scrambling to step into that market. But cars will still have all their wheels on the ground for the foreseeable future, so we took a look at Toyota’s push for hydrogen fuel cells and how even buses are starting to come online. Our main focus for this month include a look at Pelindaba’s vital role in medicine and nuclear advancement, a visit to Woodstock Moto Co., and an in-depth look at how 3D printing finally found its purpose in the market.
