New ‘Project Hail Mary’ Footage, and Ryan Gosling, Wowed Comic-Con

gizmodo.com Germain Lussier 2025-12-30 18:45:35

A few short weeks ago, directors Phil Lord and Chris Miller graced us with an extended first look at their upcoming sci-fi adaptation, Project Hail Mary. The three-minute trailer for a movie not coming out for nine months displayed supreme confidence in the project, and after watching it, you could see why. So to then bring the film to Hall H at San Diego Comic-Con, along with its iconic star Ryan Gosling, felt almost like too much. We already have this glorious trailer. What more could we see?

Earlier this month, astronomers made a fascinating discovery: a mysterious object with interstellar origins, now dubbed 3I/ATLAS, that's hurtling toward the inner solar system at extreme speeds. As scientists race to get a better understanding of the rare visitor — it's only the third confirmed interstellar object to have ventured into our solar system — some intriguing theories have emerged.

A shippable microfactory from AUAR Nick Durham is a General Partner at Shadow Ventures, a venture capital firm focused on investing in frontier technologies for the built world. Traditionally, prefabricated construction has meant large fixed factories churning out modules or panels that get shipped to building sites.

For many couples, the numerous options for birth control still come with plenty of hassles.

GM’s EVs have been on a roll lately. After selling just the Chevy Bolt for years, a wave of new models — now up to 17 fully electrified vehicles — has pushed the automaker into second place in the U.S. behind Tesla.

U NTIL 1700 the world economy did not really grow—it just stagnated. Over the previous 17 centuries global output had expanded by 0.1% a year on average, a rate at which it takes nearly a millennium for production to double. Then spinning jennies started whirring and steam engines began to puff. Global growth quintupled to 0.5% a year between 1700 and 1820. By the end of the 19th century it had reached 1.9%. In the 20th century it averaged 2.8%, a rate at which production doubles every 25 years.
