Newly developing stars shrouded in thick dust get their first baby pictures in these images from NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope. Hubble took these infant star snapshots in an effort to learn how massive stars form. Protostars are shrouded in thick dust that blocks light, but Hubble can detect the near-infrared emission that shines through holes […]

Great review of TROMjaro from ZDnet - zdnet.com/article/tromjaro-is-…

Amongst AI written, ad driven content nowadays, it is nice to see some genuine reviews. Super happy with the fact that the author also talks about the trade-free idea a bit and even mentions VideoNeat.

I found a Linux distro that pairs a clean, Mac-like UI with a 'trade-free' philosophy - and it's super fast

This Linux distribution can compete with any lightweight OS on the market.

As Earth completed its orbit around the Sun to close out 2025, the International Space Station circled our planet more than 5,800 times. Serving as humanity’s unique laboratory in space, the station has hosted thousands of experiments and technology demonstrations, advancing science in ways that cannot be replicated on Earth. In 2025 alone, more than […]

While this eerie NASA Hubble Space Telescope image may look ghostly, it’s actually full of new life. Lupus 3 is a star-forming cloud about 500 light-years away in the constellation Scorpius. White wisps of gas swirl throughout the region, and in the lower-left corner resides a dark dust cloud. Bright T Tauri stars shine at […]
