When I think about the fate of Universal’s Dark Universe — a franchise cancelled way before all planned installments were made — I am, admittedly, of two minds about it. On one hand, I find it sad that the studio which, essentially, invented the shared cinematic universe could not recapture the same magic with their classic monster movies line-up again amid the popularity of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. However, on the other hand, if not for the failure of 2017’s The Mummy, we would not have gotten the inventive and…

A Los Angeles radio host wants 50 Cent to face the music, alleging in a lawsuit filed Thursday that the “Candy Shop” rapper chucked a microphone at her head during a concert in August. Bryhana Monegain, a midday host for hip-hop station Power 106 FM, filed her lawsuit in Los Angeles County Superior Court. At the center of the complaint, reviewed by The Times, is an Aug. 30, 2023, stop on 50 Cent’s Final Lap tour at downtown L.A.’s Crypto.com Arena. Monegain alleges that 50 Cent (real name Curtis Jackson) threw his…

L ooking out the studio window of the radio station where she’d worked for 29 years, DJ “Mistress Carrie” Sarao could see a crowd gathering outside. It was a Friday night, Feb. 21, 2020, and freezing, but that didn’t stop hundreds of Bostonians from flooding the parking lot when they heard the news. There was no invitation, just an impulse, an impromptu meetup of loved ones known and unknown. At midnight, the city would lose its last rock radio station.  Debuting in 1970, WAAF helped launched the careers…

Astronomers discovered enormous radio wave circles in 2019, named ORCs. Research led by Professor Alison Coil indicates these are caused by galactic winds from starburst galaxies, providing new insights into galactic evolution and phenomena. Credit: SciTechDaily.comOutflowing galactic winds from exploding stars may explain the enormous rings.It’s not every day astronomers say, “What is that?” After all, most observed astronomical phenomena are known: stars, planets, black holes, and galaxies. But in 2019 the newly…

When Annie Nightingale, who has died aged 83, first approached the BBC in the hope of getting on the radio, she was instantly rebuffed. Her qualifications were inarguable: as a young journalist working in local news in the early 1960s, she had interviewed the Beatles, and had gone on to host the pop culture show That’s for Me, where she booked then little-known bands such as the Yardbirds, and had appeared on the Friday night rock and pop series Ready Steady Go! But when she met BBC bosses about hosting her own radio…

Astronomers have traced the most powerful and distant fast radio burst (FRB) to a rare cluster of interacting galaxies, challenging existing models of FRB origins and suggesting a connection to dense galactic environments.

Annie Nightingale, the first female presenter on BBC Radio 1 and the station’s longest-serving DJ, has died aged 83, the BBC has confirmed.Her family said that she died on 11 January at home in London following a short illness. In a statement they described her as a “pioneer, trailblazer and inspiration to many. Her impulse to share that enthusiasm with audiences remained undimmed after six decades of broadcasting on BBC TV and radio globally.“Never underestimate the role model she became. Breaking down doors by refusing…

Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are rapid flashes of radio waves from deep space that are as intense as they are mysterious.Astronomers have now managed to track down the origin of the most powerful, furthest-traveling FRB ever to reach us to a tightly-knitted group of seven galaxies, giving researchers some insight into the variety of environments that can generate such curious emissions of light.Dubbed FRB 20220610A, the burst comes from somewhere within the cluster, according to new imagery from the Hubble Space Telescope…
