With Starship Flight 10, SpaceX prioritized resilience over perfection

techcrunch.com Aria Alamalhodaei 2025-10-29 12:39:43

SpaceX has long marketed Starship as a fully and rapidly reusable rocket that’s designed to deliver thousands of pounds of cargo to Mars and make life multiplanetary. But reusability at scale means a space vehicle that can tolerate mishaps and faults, so that a single failure doesn’t spell a mission-ending catastrophe. The 10th test flight on Tuesday evening demonstrated SpaceX’s focus on fault tolerance. In a post-flight update, SpaceX said the test stressed “the limits of vehicle capabilities

Famous Painting Looted by Nazis Spotted on Real Estate Website, Disappears Again

gizmodo.com Aj Dellinger 2025-10-29 16:45:38

More than 80 years ago, the master painting of Portrait of a Lady by Italian painter Giuseppe Ghislandi was stolen by Nazis from a Jewish art dealer in Amsterdam. It hadn’t been seen since it went missing–until this week, when it was spotted in a real estate listing for a home for sale in Argentina. And while that may have seemed like a mystery solved, The Guardian reports that once the portrait was spotted, it suddenly went missing again. The painting, a portrait of Contessa Colleoni, was one

Light pollution prolongs avian activity

If the songbirds in your neighborhood are waking you up earlier and chirping well into the evening, blame light pollution. Artificial light touches nearly every corner of Earth’s surface, and a new study shows that it’s messing with birds’ biological clocks.
