What are eVTOL aircraft, and can they fly against the hype?

In April 2024, a Japanese company took delivery of an electric vertical take-off and landing aircraft, otherwise known as an eVTOL. Called Prosperity 1 and built by Chinese manufacturer AutoFlight, the aircraft is one of the very first examples of a production model eVTOL sold commercially. Fifteen years ago, the notion of an eVTOL was just a concept, with sceptics branding the idea as science fiction. Today, the sale of Prosperity 1 marks a major milestone in the development of what's known as Advanced Air Mobility, and with it the prospect of air taxis becoming a reality by the end of the decade. But who's responsible for introducing eVTOL, and how has this revolutionary method of travel evolved? Click through and launch this gallery that explains more about eVTOL aircraft.

Diego Garcia: the paradise island with a shameful secret

A tiny speck in the vast Indian Ocean, Diego Garcia is an island in the Chagos Archipelago that's home to one of the most secretive and controversial US military bases in the world. Established in the early 1970s after the forced expulsion from the island of its native inhabitants by the British and American governments, the US Navy Support Facility functions as the last link in a long logistics chain supporting vital US and British naval presence in the region. But its remote location has led conspiracy theorists to suggest Diego Garcia serves a more sinister role as a CIA black site. And some even believe the island was involved in the mysterious disappearance of Malaysian Airlines Flight 370.

Where to travel based on your personality type

The Myers-Briggs personality test has been used for many years to assess people's personalities. It assesses different preferences to determine key aspects of our personality, and its results are often quite accurate. People look for different things when they travel, and these things are often influenced by their attitudes and actions in life. These influence the way they perceive the world and what they enjoy doing during a trip. An introverted person will most likely have a different approach to traveling when compared to an extroverted one, for instance. With this in mind, we've compiled a number of destinations specifically tailored for each Myers-Briggs result. If you haven't taken the test, do so to find the perfect travel destination for your bucket list! Click through the gallery and get to know the best destinations based on your personality type.

Strange pet laws from around the world: Walking your dog could get you arrested!

In most countries, a pet is more than just a pet: it's part of the family. So it's only natural to find common pet laws about animal welfare around the world. One might think the responsibilities are straight forward, but laws are designed to protect our pets. However, aside from the usual laws, some countries have some rather surprising and strange pet laws. Pets are being seized and their owners are being arrested in the Iranian capital, Tehran, where police have recently announced that walking dogs in parks was a crime. According to the BBC, the ban was justified as a measure to "protect the safety of the public." Meanwhile, the Iranian parliament could also soon approve the Protection of the Public's Rights Against Animals bill, which would restrict pet ownership across the board and has reportedly been in talks for over a decade. The latest proposed legislation would require pet owners to obtain a permit issued by a special committee, as well as pay a minimum fine of around US$800 for the "import, purchase and sale, transportation and keeping" of animals including common pets such as cats, turtles, and rabbits. From banning dogs from barking after 6 pm to prohibiting mating with pets from the royal household, check out this gallery to discover some other strange pet laws.
