Man Turns Old Minivan Into Star Trek TNG Shuttlecraft

Cory Mervis-Bocskor wanted to go to Burning Man in style, and he had an old Ford Aerostar minivan laying around, so he decided to turn it into the Goddard shuttlecraft from Star Trek: The Next Generation. Unfortunately, the vehicle was not street legal, even though the man tried to make it so, so he had to use a trailer to bring it there. Be sure to check out the video of the shuttlecraft in action, as well as an extra pic, below!

LIFE BEYOND: The Dawn – An exploration of alien life & our place in the universe.

The biggest question of our time. Are we alone? Chapter 1 of this experience takes you to alien worlds and distant places in time and space, in search of where alien life might be hiding and what our place is within the history of life. After generations of wondering, the truth is finally within our reach. New research and technologies have brought us closer than ever to an answer – only a few decades in the eyes of some NASA scientists.

The search has led to new discoveries that will blow your mind wide open and give a profound new perspective on human life. The deeper we look, the deeper we see into nature’s imagination, and the more we learn about ourselves. I hope stewing on these thoughts tickles your brain as deeply as it does mine.

In upcoming chapters of Life Beyond we will explore making contact with intelligent life, the potential physics of alien biology, how to survive the end of the universe, and more.

Stay tuned for the upcoming episodes of “Life Beyond.”

As you might have heard, Google has just released its new Stadia game console, which essentially lets you stream games to any devices you have.

A lot of people have expressed doubts about how well the system will perform considering its games will be streamed from Google’s servers, but at just $129 for a Stadia controller, a Chromecast dongle and three months of usage, we’re willing to bet that a lot of people will give it a try. After the 3 months period, the service will cost $9.99 per month.
