Waste In Space: It’s Not Just Earth That Needs Cleaning Up
I know there is a lot of garbage on earth, that's no surprise, but I never thought about it being in space before. And yes, most of the trash in space is caused by humans. Space debris is commonly defined as nonfunctional, human-made materials in orbit caused by everything from spent booster stages ...
This Is How NASA Imagined Space Stations In 1970
I always get overly excited and impressed every time that NASA launches another spacecraft into space. The force and the technology seems almost dreamish when you see it in its full scale. However, I always get slightly annoyed that they still have somewhat old school interfaces when we see the insi ...
Project Space Planes: Geeky Paper Airplanes Fall From Space
What a brilliant promotion sponsored by Samsung. 100 geeky paper airplanes were recently dropped to the earth from space. They were geeky because each folded airplane contained a Samsung SD Memory Card with a random message from a random person on it.

Live The Star Wars Fantasy: The Deep Space Fighter Bed
Wow, this is quite a bed! I didn't think a Star Wars inspired bed would ever top this Millennium Falcon bed, which by the way, looks ultimately geektastic and cozy. However, that was before I saw this Deep Space Fighter Bed.
I have three things to say about this bed. First, the base model star ...
Star Wars USB Hand Warmers For Cold Winter Space Days

Geek Design: Space Invader Papercraft Business Card
Is there anything that can't be created with a piece of paper? I'm starting to think not. We've written about so much incredible papercraft on Bit Rebels that it now has its own category at the top of this blog. I used to just look at a piece of paper as just that, a piece of paper. But now, all ...
Space Invaders Calendar: Mark Each Day By Killing Aliens
So, at the beginning of each year, you have 365 days to look forward to. Maybe you dread them, and maybe even try to avoid them by sleeping it out. Either way, you still have 365 days to spend, and it's up to you to choose how you want to invest them. Look at it as the building of an age ring on ...

Right now, the tickets, which you can preorder directly from Virgin Galactic, are $200,000. However, according to Richard, in about ten years, an or ...
14 Spaceship Homes: Get Ready To Ditch Earth By 2012!
If you're one of the millions of people that hauled your butt to the movie theater to watch the epic movie "2012" only to come out of it fully convinced that Earth is going kablam exactly when the Mayan calendar says it will, this might be something for you to consider. There are people out there t ...
Space Invaders Is Now Sticky As Tape!
Here on Bit Rebels we love Space Invaders. If we could, we would all run down to the local arcade and play this legendary game over and over and... well I think you get what I am saying.

Space Invaders Couch: Gank The Invaders At Home!
There have been several posts here on Bit Rebels that deal with the perfect geek interior design. So far we have only touched the tip of the iceberg it seems, and more and more genius designs are leaking into our lives. Is there really something that is considered "too geeky?"

Homemade Space Helmet Breaks All Boundaries!
We're in the middle of the space age, and we break boundaries every day. We travel farther into space and glance ever deeper at the planets and stars out there only to understand where we came from, and where we are headed. Some people stay positive that we'll one day travel to those distant world ...
Spaceship Shower – Just Fold It Up When Not In Use!
The earth is quickly becoming over populated, and space is soon something that no one will be taking for granted. With this comes smaller and smaller living spaces and solutions to make sure we make the most out of the small space we are allowed to have. It's clear that manufacturers of home inter ...
Could You Live In This Space? – Architectural Inspiration
Yesterday I wrote an article about a woman that has downsized her life to the point that she is living in a house that is only 84 square feet. That was pretty crazy, in a cool kinda way, but now I have something else even more bizarrely cool to share with you.
This story originally came out in 2 ...
Space Age Ant Habitat For The Geek In You!
Kids love keeping pets like hamsters, rats, snakes and ants. When I was younger, I wanted my own ant farm, but of course my parents would not let us have one. The reasons were quite valid if you think about it. What if we were to knock it off the table, and the container accidentally shattered? ...
