‘Edge of Eternities’ Will Take ‘Magic: The Gathering’ to the Stars

A certain Star franchise may have boldly declared space the final frontier, but for Magic: The Gathering, it’s only the beginning. After the huge risk (and ultimate success) of its Final Fantasy set last month, the venerable card game is leaping into another big risk, although this time devoid of any flashy crossover: its next set, Edge of Eternities, will mark Magic‘s first proper foray into full-on science fiction.

China jumps ahead in the race to achieve a new kind of reuse in space

Two Chinese satellites have rendezvoused with one another more than 20,000 miles above the Earth in what analysts believe is the first high-altitude attempt at orbital refueling. China's Shijian-21 and Shijian-25 satellites, known as SJ-21 and SJ-25 for short, likely docked together in geosynchronous orbit some time last week. This is the conclusion of multiple civilian satellite trackers using open source imagery showing the two satellites coming together, then becoming indistinguishable as a
