A recent study claims to have found evidence for mushroom-like life forms on the surface of Mars. As it happens, these particular features are well known and were discovered by cameras aboard Nasaâs Mars Exploration Rover Opportunity, shortly after it landed in 2004.

But despite its increasing ubiquitousness, there are limits to its utility. USB-C Power Delivery has been capped at 100W for a while now, for instance; while thatâs enough for most devices, some powerful laptops are still forced to use traditional power connectors that...

While Google I/O and Appleâs WWDC are aimed at developers, they also tend to reveal some of the biggest consumer news of the year. Microsoftâs Build has tended to be the nerdier and more developer-centric one of the big three spring tech conferences, but todayâs keynote was the most sparse Iâve seen yet, barely lasting 15 minutes. In the keynote, CEO Satya Nadella focused on developer and cloud news, and... Read more âș

GPT-3, the highly-touted text generator built by OpenAI, can do a lot of things. For example, Microsoft today announced a new AI-powered âautocompleteâ system for coding that uses GPT-3 to build out code solutions for people without requiring them to do any developing.

Those who have bootstrapped a startup previously will more... Read more âș

On May 26, a total lunar eclipse will be visible in the pre-dawn sky over much of North America. Skygazers will see the Moon pass completely into the shadow of Earth. As this happens, our familiar planetary companion will grow continually redder, before becoming extremely (yet, not entirely) dark. The lunar eclipse on May 26 should be a delight for amateur astronomers (especially in the western United States), or casual... Read more âș

Itâs no surprise the Milky Way is the most-studied galaxy in the universe, given itâs where we live. But studying just one galaxy can only tell us so much about the complex processes by which galaxies form and evolve. One crucial question that canât be solved without looking farther afield is whether the Milky Way is a run-of-the-mill galaxy, or whether itâs unusual or even unique. Our research, published today...
