In Court for Fatal Crash, Tesla Admits It Wasn't Even Tracking Autopilot Crashes for the First Three Years of the Program

futurism.com Unknown 2025-07-20 06:00:19

With so many massive and well-publicized safety issues, nothing should surprise us about Tesla's internal culture — but new revelations from the country's first federal Autopilot crash trial have us shaken once again. As Law360 reports, an engineer at Elon Musk's car company revealed during a wrongful death trial this week that until 2018, the company didn't even keep records of Autopilot crashes — even though the assisted driving feature had been rolled out three years prior.

Astronomers using data collected by the James Webb Space Telescope have discovered a spectacular cosmic object they're calling the "Infinity Galaxy." The site of an epic head-on collision between two galaxies, it could harbor the secrets to how the heaviest black holes in the universe, the supermassive black holes found at the hearts of galaxies, are born and reach their unbelievable masses — masses extreme enough to organize trillions of stars around them.

James Webb Spots Planets Forming Into Solar System in Real Time, Like an Organism's First Cells

Astronomers have spotted a planetary system being conceived from the swirl of gas and dust surrounding a star — giving us an unprecedented, real-time look at how our solar system would've formed some 4.6 billion years ago. The findings, published as a study in the journal Nature, are the first time we're seeing such an early stage of planets being formed anywhere in the cosmos. "We've captured a direct glimpse of the hot region where rocky planets like Earth are born around young protostars,"

Tesla has fired the first major shot in a brewing electric vehicle price war, launching a series of aggressive new promotions across its lineup as the market braces for the end of a crucial federal incentive. With the $7,500 federal tax credit for new electric vehicles set to expire on September 30, Elon Musk’s company is moving preemptively to lock in buyers and pressure competitors.

Origami Space Planes Could Solve a Major Problem in Orbit

Building a spacecraft could one day be as simple as folding a piece of paper into a plane and letting aerodynamics do the rest. A team of researchers from the University of Tokyo simulated the release of a paper airplane from the International Space Station (ISS) to see if would survive atmospheric reentry. In a paper published in Acta Astronautica, the researchers demonstrated how origami may be the solution to low Earth orbit’s growing trash problem. Rather than relying solely on metals to co

Nothing says that the Phone 3 is its “first true flagship phone,” and it has put its money where its mouth is. The phone is getting a full US launch, and at $799, it costs exactly the same as a Pixel 9, Galaxy S25, or iPhone 16. That makes reviewing the Phone 3 refreshingly simple, because there are only two real questions that matter: is this as good as those three?
