An economic downturn combined with high inflation is a double-whammy for your finances. DNY59/Getty Images/Jeffrey Hazelwood/CNET President Donald Trump's turbulent tariff agenda, combined with mass deportations and increased national debt, has created heightened volatility in financial markets.

How to Watch the Southern Delta Aquariids and Perseids Meteor Showers

wired.com Gretchen Rundorff 2026-02-11 21:00:00

If you want to get into stargazing in 2025, there’s no better place to start than viewing a meteor shower. Meteor showers, or shooting stars, happen when Earth’s orbital path crosses a path of debris left by a comet and that material burns up in the Earth’s atmosphere. Watching a meteor shower is one of the most accessible ways to engage with the night sky. The next showers of the year are the Southern Delta Aquariids—which peak for about a week at the end of July—and the Perseids—which will pe

Samsung's Galaxy Unpacked event in Brooklyn earlier this week debuted seven new devices, from the Galaxy Z Fold7 to the Galaxy Watch8 series. But there weren't any surprises at the end, despite rumors that Samsung would unveil a trifold phone.

This so-called passwordless future is based on a new form of login credential known as the passkey, which itself is largely based on another technology -- public key cryptography -- that's been around for decades.
