Five Inspiring Science Projects Designed by Teens
These devices are all designed to solve a problem and make the world a better place. And not a single one of the creators is over 18.
While the bread and butter of Gizmodo UK is in the bits and bytes of technology, we have a lot of fun in the off-topic areas, with many of the stories being filed in the WTF category. Bookmark this page for the sillier stories, from ridiculous examples of body-art, to... sausages made of skittles?

Ever wanted to peek inside a living mouse brain? Thanks to carbon nanotubes, lasers and SCIENCE, you now can.
The intricate folds of origami are infinitely useful across science, from designing safer airbags to building more resilient architecture.
Dining on alien planets might be a way off, but at least when we do there will be salad — because we've already developed the means to grow lettuce on other worlds.
These smart building blocks are made of flexible plastic and stuffed with fluidics channels and electronics, designed to build simple, adaptable robots in double-quick time.

Whether for vaccines or serums, the basic idea is to turn tobacco plants into protein factories.
The British Antarctic Survey has announced it's halting all science until the situation gets resolved.
Researchers at MIT have developed a flexible skin-like material covered in thousands of tiny magnetic hairs that can move in varying directions in the presence of a magnetic field.
About 2.5 billion years ago, microbes began making a poison that would cause one of the largest mass extinctions on Earth.
Scientists in South Korea have found a simple process to turn used cigarette filters into high-performing material that works better than graphene or carbon nanotubes in supercapacitors.
Apocalyptic science fiction has it wrong, these tunnels can outlast any rusted shell of a skyscraper.
Forget what you may have been told, it turns out they can touch each other.
Researchers are claiming world-first technology developed at Griffith University, Queensland, will harness the remarkable properties of graphene.
Although for thousands of years the reason has remained elusive, recent scholarship may have uncovered the truth as to why we yawn.
Today's Earth Picture of the Day is extraordinarily beautiful and rare: fine art and landscape photographer Fefo Boouvier captured a large population of bioluminescent noctiluca glowing against the Milky Way in the Atlantic Ocean, off the coast of the little town of Barra de Valizas, Uruguay.
