Wild New Image Shows a Twin of Our Solar System Being Born

The first-ever baby pictures of a solar system that’s not our own are finally here—and they’re beautiful—and as adorable as space entities can get. In a paper published today in Nature, astronomers presented HOPS-315: a Sun-like protostar cooking up a brew of hot minerals and silicon monoxide gas, located about 1,300 light-years away from Earth. The special thing about HOPS-315 is that the baby star and its surrounding environment bear a striking resemblance to an earlier version of our own sol

Apple trade-in values cut for iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple Watch

Apple trade-in values have been cut for most models of iPhone, all Macs, several Apple Watches, and one iPad. Additionally, there are two older Apple products the company will no longer accept as trade-in against a new one, making them officially worthless … While Apple trade-ins represent very poor value compared to selling privately or using third-party resellers, some people prefer the ease and convenience of just taking their old device into an Apple Store when buying a new one.

OnePlus 15 leak shows why the Galaxy S26 series urgently needs silicon-carbon batteries
