Telepathy is, until proven otherwise, still science fiction. But a new wearable announced this week aims to bring the world closer to silent communication, though it's more about using brain signals than the X-Men superpower. Alterego, developed by the MIT Media Lab, is a peripheral neural interface that allows us to converse with machines, artificial intelligence assistants and humans, without using our voice or externally observable movements. We first saw the Alterego as a prototype in 2018

gizmodo.com Gayoung Lee 2025-10-01 10:00:23

When a comet meets solar winds, its nuclear coma—a bright cloud of gas around its core—reacts vibrantly to our Sun’s solar maximum, leaving a trail of stellar gas and dust across the solar system. Miraculously, the sky above June Lake, California, cleared up for a full 13 minutes for photographer Dan Bartlett to image the comet clearly enough for his photograph, “Comet 12P/Pons-Brooks Taking a Final Bow.” With incredible technological advances, the continuous flow of space photos can sometimes

Solar-Powered Device Turns Moon Dirt Into Bricks, a Potential Breakthrough in Lunar Construction

Both the U.S. and China have set their sights on the Moon, aiming to break ground on permanent lunar bases within the next decade. Though there’s no legal basis for claiming territory in space, whichever country gets there first will gain a coveted first-mover advantage, allowing it to set certain ground rules about who can do what, where. But getting there first is only half the battle. Actually establishing a sustained lunar presence presents significant logistical and engineering challenges.
