As NASA’s Artemis program continues working toward landing humans on the moon for the first time in decades, most of the focus is on the vehicles that will get them there. That’s only one part of the engineering necessary to return us to the moon. NASA also needs a new …

  The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has been in space for about six months, which is just a fraction of the time NASA spent designing and building it. All that effort is about to pay off, though. Webb will begin science operations this summer, and some of its first …

Dating platform Bumble is looking to enhance its non-dating social features with a further investment into its Bumble BFF feature, first launched in 2016. This friend-finding feature currently uses the same swiped-based mechanics to connect people looking for platonic relationships but will soon expand to include social networking groups where …

At Computex today AMD unveiled a new mobile platform that takes its older Zen 2 architecture and reworks it as a mainstream laptop platform with an emphasis on long battery life, connectivity, and affordability. AMD calls this mobile platform Mendocino, and it’s expected to launch in Q4 of 2022. It …

NASA launched Voyager 1 and 2 in 1977 on a mission to explore the outer solar system. The mission has run much longer than anyone expected, but 45 years is a long time for a piece of hardware exposed to the harsh environment of deep space. Therefore, it’s not a …

NASA’s InSight lander arrived on the surface of Mars in late 2018, designed to explore the interior of the red planet for the first time. While some aspects of the mission have not gone to plan, the lander has lasted longer in the harsh conditions than expected. However, nothing can …

Since its launch in 2021, the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has knocked out every objective NASA set up for it. It’s fully unfolded, fully aligned, and patrolling the Sun-Earth L2 point at a balmy 6K. Now, NASA has released the first gorgeous, crystal-clear images from Webb. They compare what …

Until a few decades ago, no human being had ever been away from gravity’s loving embrace. As the era of space exploration dawns, it’s still unclear how long stretches without gravity will affect the body. A new analysis of astronauts from Oregon Health & Science University shows that their brains …

For the past five years, AMD’s workstation-class Threadripper family has held an edge over Intel’s Xeon processors, either in terms of price/performance, maximum performance, or both. While Ryzen has offered increasingly difficult competition for Intel over time, AMD’s workstation edge has been larger and more consistently sustained than its consumer …

(Image: Tesla)Like it or not, humanoid robots are here. Optimus, a human-like droid powered by AI, is Elon Musk’s latest project—one he insists will be worth more than Tesla’s current vehicle business.  Musk originally unveiled the concept for Optimus (the nickname for what’s otherwise called Tesla Bot) at the company’s …
