gizmodo.com Passant Rabie 2025-10-12 23:33:28

Canada’s first-ever Moon rover is going to hitch a ride aboard private space company’s Firefly Aerospace’s fourth Blue Ghost mission to our celestial satellite. The news comes after NASA awarded Firefly $176.7 million to deliver two rovers and three scientific instruments to the lunar surface. The Texas-based company pulled-off its first Moon landing on March 2, delivering payloads for NASA as part of the agency’s Commercial Lunar Payload Services initiative (CLPS).

The European Union has put plans to fine Google on hold. The commission in charge of doling out punishment for digital infractions is reportedly worried that fining the U.S. tech giant for allegedly abusing its dominance in online advertising could provoke U.S. President Donald Trump.

Not so fast: German court says Apple can’t call Watch carbon neutral

techcrunch.com Tim De Chant 2025-10-28 14:35:27

Two years ago, Apple announced its Watch Series 9 as its first carbon-neutral product. From cradle to grave, the company said the manufacturing, use, and disposal of the then-new model didn’t contribute to global warming. Now, a German court says that Apple has to recant the claim. Each aluminum Apple Watch Series 9 and Series 10 — two models with the carbon-neutral designation — generates just over 8 kilograms of carbon emissions.

Crypto Bros’ ‘Startup Nation’ Wants to Plant a Flag on an Asteroid

Scientists Propose a Smarter Way to Hunt for Alien Radio Signals

Why recycling isn’t enough to address the plastic problem

And looking into the future, emissions from plastics are only set to grow. Another estimate, from the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development, projects that emissions from plastics could swell from about 2 billion metric tons to 4 billion metric tons by 2060.
