Wave energy comes from ocean waves, which are endless because they’re caused by how the Earth and Moon move. This energy can be turned into electricity, even from small waves. Unlike solar or wind power, wave energy is reliable, working day and night and getting stronger in bad weather. Technology now lets us capture this energy more efficiently. Devices in the ocean turn wave movement into electricity, which can power homes and cities, especially since many people live near coasts. But using wave energy is challenging because ocean water can damage devices. They need to be tough and protected against rust and water.

China has introduced a new, eco-friendly train called the Intelligent Rail Transit or IRT. Unlike traditional trains, the IRT doesn’t run on tracks. Instead, it moves on roads using electricity, making it pollution-free. It can speed up to 60 miles per hour and carry 100 passengers in each section, much more than a regular bus. The IRT communicates with traffic lights intelligently and uses sensors to follow road markers. This enables the vehicle to autonomously make its way through urban roads. Bringing IRT to cities in China helps reduce traffic and introduces a new way to travel in the future.

Underwater bubbles are pockets of gas that are trapped within liquids, a mixture much more substantial than air, but considerably softer and less dense than water. Animals that spend a lot of time underwater have some incredible ways of exploiting the fact that bubbles reduce the density of water. These are emperor penguins. They store air in their feathers, which they release as clouds of bubbles. This makes the water around the penguin less dense and much easier to move through. It means the penguins can travel up to 50% faster than if there were no bubbles.
