Apple’s hotly-anticipated Apple event was chock-full of news about updates to AirPods, the Apple Watch, the new suite of iPhones, and more. But during the one-hour-and-fifteen-minute presentation, which was considerably shorter than usual, there was one notable buzzword missing from a good chunk of the fanfare: AI. Although CEO

Apple’s New Accessory Lets You Wear Your iPhone Like a Purse

We got several new versions of the iPhone 17, including a first-ever slim variant in the iPhone 17 Air, a new Apple Watch Ultra, new AirPods Pro 3, and much more.

After early struggles, NASA’s ambitious mission to Titan is “on track” for launch

A new independent report finds that although NASA's ambitious mission to fly across the surface of Titan is delayed and over budget, the fault is due to the space agency's management rather than the program itself. Released Tuesday by NASA's Office of Inspector General, the report found that the mission's budget has soared from an initial figure of $850 million upon its selection in 2019 to $3.35 billion today. Additionally, the launch target has slipped from the year 2026 to 2028. However, th

The iPhone Air is a hint at the iPhone’s future, which could include foldables

The iPhone Air looks great with its sleek, thin new shape, but you may not want to choose this phone as your daily driver just yet. The new device announced on Tuesday is thinner and lighter than other models, at 5.6mm with a 6.5-inch display. But for the time being, it’s also less capable in some areas than the base model iPhone 17, which could deter potential buyers. For instance, the Air’s battery lasts up to 27 hours, while the iPhone 17 lasts up to 30. It lacks the iPhone 17’s Ultra Wide

Weaver played Ellen Ripley, or some version of her, in four Alien movies from 1979 to 1997 and is clearly the go-to when it comes to Alien. Especially because she, unlike original director Ridley Scott, h
