What Seemed Like a Pregnancy Was Actually Something Far More Dangerous

gizmodo.com Ed Cara 2025-11-18 06:10:04

A woman’s supposed pregnancy turned out to be something much stranger. In a recent report from her doctors, they detail how the woman had developed an incredibly rare form of ovarian cancer that mimicked the symptoms of pregnancy, even causing a positive pregnancy test. Doctors in India described the case of mistaken identity earlier this July in the journal Oncoscience. After first suspecting the woman had an ectopic pregnancy, the doctors instead discovered a large and rare type of tumor in h

Rumored F1 movie digital release date points to imminent launch ahead of Apple TV+ debut

A new rumor claims Apple’s F1 movie will be available to own digitally on Friday. However, there are two reasons to be skeptical. The source of the rumor is the aptly named website When To Stream. It claims that F1 will come to PVOD, or premium video on demand, starting this Friday. Forbes notes that the website is “typically accurate for its PVOD reports,” but neither Apple nor Warner Bros. has announced a date.

Picking a Spot for NASA’s Lunar Nuclear Reactor Is Trickier Than It Sounds

In a bold, strategic move for the U.S., acting NASA Administrator Sean Duffy announced plans on Aug. 5, 2025, to build a nuclear fission reactor for deployment on the lunar surface in 2030. Doing so would allow the United States to gain a foothold on the Moon by the time China plans to land the first taikonaut, what China calls its astronauts, there by 2030.
