THE VISITOR Trailer - 1979' Sci-Fi Movie HDThis batshit Italian import involving humans descended from an evil alien overlord, a telekinetic girl, professional basketball, and conspiratorial Satanists stars a cast of aging legends (John Huston, Shelley Winters, Mel Ferrer, Glenn Ford, Sam Peckinpah) who were hopefully well-compensated for their participation. You, too, will be well-compensated for your time, because the singularly bizarre The Visitor is truly out of this world. Watch on Peacock. THE VISITOR Trailer -…

Writer-director Miryam Charles’s fragile experimental film hovers on the cusp of making coherent sense throughout – and then skittishly retreats from the brink every time, like a ghost with commitment issues.

The first 3D renders from NASA’s JunoCam spacecraft have revealed a spectacular phenomenon on Jupiter. The small spacecraft captured data of clouds on the gas giant which, when animated and turned into a 3D image, look like frosting off a cupcake.

The renders were made using data captured by JunoCam, the visible-light camera onboard…

This charming if decidedly silly sci-fi love story unfolds in a near future where clothes and home furnishings look much like the stuff we have today – while some of the tech equipment the props department came up with looks like the prizewinners at a primary school art fair.

One of the most beautiful and spectacular regions of the night sky can be found in the constellation of Orion.Between the stars Alnitak, Saif, and Rigel, floats a vast, thick cloud of interstellar dust and gas. This is the Orion Nebula, a nest of material in which baby stars are being born and one of the most studied and photographed objects in the Milky Way.Spanning 24 light-years, it's so close and large that it's visible to the naked eye. Because of its relative proximity (around 1,344 light-years from the Sun), this…
