Glissading gone wrong As reported by KDVR (via Reddit), a 53-year-old man had just summited Snowmass Mountain on Sunday, before beginning his descent using a glissading technique (which is essentially sliding down the snow-covered slope). That’s when he injured his wrist and realized he couldn’t make it out on his own. Wit

Experimental Propulsion Tech Could Reach Mysterious Planet Beyond Pluto in 10 Years

gizmodo.com Passant Rabie 2026-02-26 10:21:13

On November 14, 2003, astronomers spotted what was at the time the most distant known object orbiting the Sun. They called it Sedna after the Inuit goddess of the ocean. It’s a cold, reddish dwarf planet that drifts billions of miles away from the Sun during its 10,000-year orbit before coming in for a relatively close approach to our star. Its next perihelion is happening in July 2076, and astronomers want to take advantage of this rare encounter by flying a mission to the mysterious object. A

Nothing, a startup from OnePlus co-founder Carl Pei, has announced its first flagship phone since 2023. The company bills its new Nothing Phone 3 as a "true flagship" device, but it doesn't have the absolute best hardware you can get in a mobile device. Neither does it have the highest price, clocking in at a mere $799. That's shaping up to be a good value, but it's also the highest price yet for a Nothing phone.
