'Termite' swarm drones, US Army's smart rifle and China rover isn't dead...

This week on 90 Second Science, we kick off with the unveiling of a swarm of termite inspired drones by Harvard University. The robots operate as a swarm, using their environment and a very basic design plan to work together to build huge, complex structures without any human help. Next, we look at the US Army's field testing of the TrackingPoint smart scope, which stops a rifle from firing unless it will definitely hit a marked out target. Finally, to the moon, where China's Jade Rabbit rover might not be as dead as we first thought.
