About The Institution

Gaddafi built the world’s largest artificial river under the Sahara — it’s 4,000 km of giant pipes that pump 40,000-year-old fossil water to entire cities in Libya.

Discovery in Africa scares even scientists: a study published on April 23 reveals that the crust in Turkana has become so thin that it could pave the way for the continent’s division and the emergence of an ocean in the future, in a gigantic geological transformation.

Japanese garbage collectors treat filthy trucks as if they were dealership cars, and the obsession with cleanliness is so absurd that they invented a washing machine that only exists for this type of vehicle.

Seen from high in the stratosphere, a Lego Star Devourers rose to 34,988 meters attached to a balloon, returned to Earth intact, and entered the Guinness World Records in a record that seems like science fiction.

In 1991, Brazil’s GDP was almost double India’s, and today it is little more than half: while India grew 6.5% per year and trained engineers, Brazil preferred to train lawyers, and now it is rushing to strengthen ties with the world’s fourth-largest economy.

India built a 21.8-kilometer sea bridge to connect Mumbai to Navi Mumbai, and a journey of up to 120 minutes fell to about 20.

South America’s most famous oasis has an emerald lagoon formed by underground waters in the Peruvian desert. It is located 300 km from Lima, is surrounded by giant dunes, and holds a mysterious mermaid legend.

Fiat Strada dominates April with almost 13 thousand units registered and shows why a compact pickup continues beating hatches, SUVs, and electric vehicles in the Brazilian market.

Without GPUs and with surprising performance, the Lingshen supercomputer emerges as a strategic weapon for China to reach 2 exaflops and challenge the planet’s most powerful supercomputers.

Honda CG 160 dominates April with over 41 thousand units, gets up to 40 km/l, travels more than 500 km on a single tank, and costs starting from R$ 14 thousand, showing why a simple motorcycle continues to beat scooters, electric bikes, and more technological models in Brazil.

Brazilians’ disposable income after basic expenses has fallen to its lowest level in 15 years. Only 21% of their income remains for the entire month, and those earning a minimum wage are left with a meager R$ 340 to live on, while credit card interest devours what’s left.

Chinese manufacturers swallowed the entire Latin American electric bus market in just seven years, the fleet jumped from one thousand to over six thousand units, Europe was left with a meager 1.9% share, and now China is advancing with the same strategy on trucks and global cargo.
