6 of the world’s biggest and most powerful telescopes
Looking out into the depth and width of the universe is a big darn job, but luckily we’ve got big darn telescopes to do it with. Not only are they big, but a lot of these telescopes are pretty crazy looking, too, as astronomers find new methods in penetrating the heavens. A lot of telescopes use one mirror, but some use two. There’s even an observatory that skips a one-telescope solution, and just goes for four mega ’scopes.
Kick off your journey by hitting up the gallery below to see six of the world’s biggest, craziest and most powerful telescopes, from the inside and out.

This watch has dinosaur bones inside for some reason
How do you know when you’re really rich? When you buy watches with dinosaur bones inside just because you can.
The Louis Moinet Jurassic Tourbillon Watch does indeed feature fragments of 130-million-year-old dinosaur bones inside for some reason. Why? I don’t know. But why not, really. It’s also got other nice features, like an 18K white gold case with 56 diamonds on the bezel. So in other words, it’s insanely expensive. And you’ll be reminded of how rich you are every time you check the time. I guess that’s the point, no?

This foldable tablet keyboard is also a phone
Here’s an interesting combo device: it’s a foldable keyboard designed to pair with tablets to make typing easier. But it’s also a cellphone, somehow. So I guess you’d always have it on you if you needed a spare keyboard?
The problem is that this phone is designed to pair with a cell-equipped tablet, so it would only work when close to the tablet. But why not figure out how to make the keyboard on a normal phone work with a tablet? Doesn’t that make more sense? Ah well, this is just a concept anyhow, so it’s all just talk at the moment.

Rumor: iPhone 4.0 software to finally deliver multitasking
One of the major shortcomings of the iPhone is that, for all its many apps, you can only run one at a time. Want to check your email while you read the NY Times? You’ll have to close the NY Times app and open the email app. It’s annoying!
New rumors predict a new overhaul of the iPhone software this summer, coinciding with the release of an updated, more powerful iPhone. The software would allow a robust form of multitasking, allowing you to run multiple apps at once. Finally! Now we’ll just have to wait and see if the rumors are true.
