Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos are bitter rivals in the commercial space race, but they agree on one thing: Settling space is an existential imperative. Space is the place. The final frontier. It is our human destiny to transcend our home world and expand our civilization to extraterrestrial vistas.

It's hard to overstate how much I already liked the new Tesla Model Y. I drove it earlier this year, and it struck me as Tesla's most complete car yet.

Infamous ‘Erin Brockovich’ Toxin Polluted Air for Months After LA Fires

gizmodo.com Ellyn Lapointe 2025-10-22 13:00:29

The January wildfires left many scars on the city of Los Angeles, from rubble-reduced homes to torched abandoned vehicles.

In late March—more than two months after the flames died out—researchers detected levels of carcinogenic hexavalent chromium (a.k.a. chromium-6) 200 times greater than baseline levels for LA air.
