NASA’s latest Hubble images show comet C/2025 K1 ATLAS breaking apart over three days in November 2025, which astronomers had not anticipated. They’d chosen to examine this comet as a last resort because their first pick had proven impossible to observe due to the limitations of their equipment, and, as if the universe was waving in their faces, the comet began to split apart just as they were getting a good look.
Four years after the spell that completely erased Peter Parker’s name and face, he swings around New York as the city’s unseen guardian. However, no one appears to remember him. People he used to rely on no longer recognize him on the street. At night, he spends his time looking around social media, checking out how MJ and Ned are doing at MIT. Then you see Zendaya as MJ, who is now seeing someone new, and Jacob Batalon as Ned, as if they are just going about their lives while Peter is stranded in a time warp.
Sugar has more power than most people realize, as Chase at Crystalverse demonstrates just how far a single bag from the grocery store can go when used correctly. What begins as regular grains becomes a single brilliant crystal large enough to hold in your palm and appreciate from all sides.
NVIDIA engineers built the Vera CPU on 88 unique cores they dubbed Olympus. These cores are based on Arm v9.2 technology, with NVIDIA-specific modifications. Instead of dividing everything across numerous smaller chips, they’ve put it all on a single piece of silicon, reducing signal delays caused by needing to transport data across multiple dies.
Mark of I Make Games, chose to rebuild Diablo 2 from the ground up in Unreal Engine 5, but with one major difference: the entire game is played in first person. A clean heads-up display lies at the bottom of the screen, displaying your current location, an experience bar that ticks upward as you fight monsters, skill slots, glowing potion icons, and a stamina meter that drains anytime you push yourself too far.

iFixit has completed a full teardown of the iPhone 17e and in the process, opened the door for owners of last year’s 16e model to get wireless charging without having to buy a whole new phone. The 17e’s back glass panel fits flawlessly on the 16e, bringing with it the essential magnets and circuitry for MagSafe-style functionality and faster charging. With that one simple swap, you’ll have a phone that is ready for wireless pads and accessories in no time.
This small charger fits snugly against the back of your iPhone and snaps into place using magnets that keep it in place whether you’re out on a walk, making a phone call, or taking a photo. Anker designed this Nano Qi2 model, priced at $46 (was $55), as a 5,000 milliamp-hour power bank that measures 4.02 by 2.78 by 0.34 inches and weighs only 4.3 ounces, so it doesn’t add much bulk.
Researchers at RMIT University in Australia built a small robot shaped like a dolphin. About the size of a sneaker, the machine glides across the surface of polluted water and gathers oil with a pump mounted at the front. A filter inside separates the oil from everything else, sending only the slick into an onboard tank while the water flows away untouched.
Kit, Firefox’s first mascot, has just made his debut, thanks to Mozilla, who combined fox and red panda features with some searing flame elements to create a one-of-a-kind creature that sticks out. Kit’s tail constantly seems like it’s on the move, even when he’s just relaxing, since his body language, posture, and eyes all appear to be working together to nail the mood.
Crowds flocked to the AMC Century City theater in Los Angeles this morning for a special IMAX event featuring the first look at the concluding chapter in Denis Villeneuve’s “Dune” saga. Zendaya, Robert Pattinson, Javier Bardem, and Anya Taylor-Joy came out to meet the fans in person, while Timothée Chalamet sent in a video greeting via his phone. The energy in the room altered suddenly, as this plot picks up 17 years after the previous film finished and revolves around what happens when someone gains too much power.
