Ep098: China's Moon Rocks, Antikythera Revelations, Creality vs Octoprint, and RC Starship

from Hackaday Podcast

Hackaday editors Elliot Williams and Tom Nardi contemplate a few of the most interesting stories that made their way through the tubes this week. We'll learn how old VHS tapes can be turned into a unique filament for your 3D printer, and realize that the best way to learn about a 2,000 year old computer is to break out the hand drill and make one yourself. Hobby grade RC gear and a some foam board stand in for SpaceX's next-generation Mars spacecraft, and a manufacturer of cheap 3D printers attempts to undercut a popular open source project with hilarious results. Finally, we'll take a close look at some hidden aluminum boogers and discuss how China's history making trek to the Moon might be a prelude to the country making a giant leap of their own. Read the show notes!
