When we reviewed Diablo IV, the latest installment in the long-running action roleplaying game series last year, we said it was off to a hell of a good start. But ARPGs live and die by their endgame loops, and it…
Early October is an exciting time for science. It’s when the annual Nobel Prizes for physics, chemistry and physiology or medicine are announced. These awards are widely considered the highest honors in science. The winners don’t just take home gold…
We’ve tested fitness trackers for years and we recommend this smartwatch deal — down to its cheapest price for Prime Day in October, with nearly 30% savings.
John Hopfield and Geoffrey Hinton used tools from physics to develop data analysis methods that underlie machine learning.
This 2014 satellite photo shows a cloud of haze sitting in the Kashmir Valley in the Himalayas. The ethereal “lake” consists mainly of smog and other pollutants from nearby factories.
We’ve spotted the joint lowest-ever price on what we call the best star projector for aesthetics in this October Prime Day deal: Good looks and scientifically accurate star projections at home.
Using NASA’s exoplanet-hunting spacecraft, TESS, astronomers and citizen scientists have discovered a record-breaking system of three tightly bound stars that could fit between the sun and Mercury.
A recent study by researchers from Waseda University offers promising insights into the effects of light-intensity exercise on children’s brain function. The research, published in Scientific Reports, found that even short bursts of simple exercises can increase blood flow to…
In less than a day, Hurricane Milton has rapidly intensified over the southern Gulf of Mexico, exploding from a small Category 1 hurricane into a Category 5 storm. Unfortunately, the hurricane is likely to strengthen further as it tracks eastward…
