| Small Island State To Issue Star Wars Coins Posted: 13 Aug 2011 11:50 AM PDT A recent while ago (now) in an island state far far away, a limited edition set of Star Wars coins are being minted for collectors. Say hello to Niue (population: 1,400), one of those obscure dots in the Pacific Ocean that’s also a British Commonwealth member. Turns out Niue is in a bit of a fiscal crisis, compelling its local government to issue a set of coins (40 in all) that will garner international attention and accompanying investment.

| Desktop Jellyfish Tank Needs Pledges (Video) Posted: 13 Aug 2011 11:48 AM PDT That means it’s a Kickstarter project. If you’ve always been fascinated by sea creatures other than fish, then this project might interest you. It’s masterminded by this guy named Alex, a San Franciscan who’s obsessed with having jellyfish for pets. See, for quite a while now Alex has been moding regular fishtanks to accommodate jellyfish. He’s succeeded at it, but has now found a better artificial habitat for the species: their own specialized tanks. The product itself is ready, all it needs is capital to get off the ground.

| SETI Raises Enough Cash To Go Live Again Posted: 13 Aug 2011 11:45 AM PDT Happens next month thanks to the multitude of generous crowd-sourced backers who donated $207,000 total. If your memory serves you well, remember that SETI’s financial woes began in April this year when funding from the U.S. government dried up. Very unfortunate, as it meant the prolonged search for extra terrestrial life that the SETI program represented had to be shut down. Or should it?

| Lockheed Martin Have Portable Samarai Drone In the Works Posted: 13 Aug 2011 11:43 AM PDT While there’s no real world equivalent to Tony Stark living today, Stark Enterprises does have its fair share of cutting edge defense contractors. Since defense contactors are generally in a sweet spot financially thanks to their government ties, they usually have more than enough capital to embark on projects that would otherwise be deemed crazy.

| Diesel SBA Black Out Watch Looks Like It Can Survive An Atomic Bomb Posted: 13 Aug 2011 11:41 AM PDT When it comes to engineering large complex wristwatches, no one comes as close to total awesome as Diesel. They put more dials in a watch than most airplane manufacturers put in a cockpit. Okay, that was a little exaggerated but our point was Diesel watches usually look much better suited for tasks other than telling time.
