This Sony OLED TV is the best Prime Day TV deal I've ever seen - over 50% off

zdnet.com Jason Hiner 2025-08-21 11:38:36

Adam Breeden/ZDNET I prefer Sony TVs because of their well-tuned picture quality right out of the box, their excellent remote, and their refined implementation of Google TV. My two favorite Sony TVs of all time are the Sony Bravia A95K OLED (2022) and the Sony Bravia A95L OLED (2023), and both are on sale for Amazon Prime Day this year. Most of today's TV buyers prefer a 65-inch TV, and the Sony A95L in that size is $600 off (17%) for Prime Day. However, the Sony A95K is a whopping $1,800 (51%

A Bold Mission to Hunt for Aliens on Venus Is Actually Happening

gizmodo.com Natalia Mesa 2025-08-21 12:15:31

A UK-based mission is aiming to settle, once and for all, whether life exists on Venus. The mission plans to send a probe to the planet in search of microbial life, not on the surface, of course, but in the Venusian clouds. Over the past half-decade, scientists have detected the presence of phosphine and ammonia—two potential signs of biological activity—in Venus’s clouds. On Earth, both gases are produced only by biological activity and industrial processes, and scientists are unsure of their
