Late in the week news hit us from both above and below. The Telectroscope project, which showcases the idea of building an underground telescope between London and New York City, was unveiled yesterday, just before we got wind of Lockheed's plans to revive Star Wars with a new orbital antimissile system.

On top of that, we took some time out to compile all the rumors about the allegedly forthcoming 3G iPhone, and we mean all. And if you're thinking about checking out Indy this weekend — be it the new Indiana Jones flick or the Indianapolis 500 — be sure to check out our features on adventuring gadgets and ultra-fast concept cars.
