The arid desert landscape of Death Valley is not the obvious place to find water. Yet it’s here, in one of the planet’s hottest and driest places, that Massachusetts Institute of Technology engineers decided to test new technology to pull drinking water from an unconventional source: the air.

When his firm was hired to design an auxiliary dwelling unit in a California yard, a designer customized the project with a mix of prefabricated and original features.

The global water system is showing its fragility, and water resilience is fast becoming a defining challenge for economies and investors. UN-Water estimates two-thirds of the world’s population faces shortages for at least a month each year.

As autonomous machines, including drones, self-driving vehicles and freight robots, evolve and grow more common, getting them to work together in real time can be difficult.

Rep. Susie Lee hosted her summit at Springs Preserve on Thursday morning to discuss the most pressing issues regarding Las Vegas’ tiny share of the Colorado River. She was joined by U.S. Sen.

He said the goal of HOV lanes is to get people to carpool with each other, but he doesn’t see that happening.

It might sound like science fiction, but for one startup in the valley, atmospheric water harvesting is reality. In the desert valley of Las Vegas, where water is as precious as gold, a team of researchers at WAVR is working to turn the air we breathe into the water we drink.

It may look like just new light poles, but to Las Vegas safety advocates it’s a sign that hundreds of pedestrians didn’t die on Boulder Highway in vain.

Las Vegas has won the dubious distinction of being named one of the nation’s most dangerous cities for pedestrians. Sin City was rated as the third worst city for pedestrians in a study released last week by shoe company Kuru.
