707hp means war, and we talk to the General in charge.
Jim Resnick
With 707hp under the hood, there aren't many cars as powerful as the Dodge Hellcat.

Henry Kissinger once famously said "power is the ultimate aphrodisiac." This may have been Kissinger's most lucid moment. The statement is certainly a glass full of lucidity in the face of combustion run amok under the $62,495 Dodge Challenger Hellcat's hood.
One could easily get hung up on statistics here. Peak horsepower of 707 (527kW). Peak torque of 650 lb-ft (881Nm). A supercharger that, by itself, displaces greater swept volume (2.4L) than most of the world's automotive engines. And 110bar—nearly 1,600psi—of combustion pressure in each cylinder all paint a picture not so much of internal combustion, but of internal warfare.
It all started with a rather innocuous conversation between then-head of Chrysler's Street and Racing Technology division, Ralph Gilles, and Hellcat Chief Engineer Chris Cowland.

For the last few years HTC has used the “HTC One” brand for its flagship smartphones. This year the company dropped the One from and introduced a new phone with top-tier specs and a new name: the HTC 10.
But that doesn’t mean the HTC One line is dead. The company just launched a new phone in Europe, and it’s called the HTC One S9.
The phone has a 5 inch, 1920 x 1080 pixel display, a MediaTek Helio X10 octa-core, 64-bit processor, 2GB of RAM, 16GB of storage, and a microSD card slot for up to 2TB of removable storage.

France-based Withings was founded in 2008, and since then has released a number of connected health appliances, including smart watches, fitness trackers, thermometers, and baby monitors, among other gadgets.

A compact, low-energy drill could go tens of meters below the Martian surface.
Video edited by Jenifer Hahn. (video link)
OCOTILLO WELLS, Calif.—The area of the Southern California desert we were standing in made for a decent visual fill-in for the Red Planet—simply change the tint of the landscape and get rid of the sparse scrub on the nearby hillsides. At this site in a large, open-air mine near the Salton Sea, a few people in hard hats were gathered around a tall stand with a tether in the middle that dropped into a small hole in the ground.
The area was silent except for a hum of a large compressor. "That's for cooling," explained Kris Zacny, an engineer for Honeybee Robotics. "We won't need cooling on Mars."
