We’ve Been Misreading a Major Law of Physics For The Last 300 Years : ScienceAlert

When Isaac Newton inscribed onto parchment his now-famed laws of motion in 1687, he could have only hoped we'd be discussing them three centuries later.Writing in Latin, Newton outlined three universal principles describing how the motion of objects is governed in our Universe, which have been translated, transcribed, discussed and debated at length.But according to a philosopher of language and mathematics, we might have been interpreting Newton's precise wording of his first law of motion slightly wrong all…

Is this the Ford F-150 Lightning Raptor we’ve been waiting for?

Ford is teasing a new high-performance electric truck ahead of the Ford Performance season launch event. Is this the Ford F-150 Lightning Raptor we’ve been waiting for? The Raptor badge is reserved for Ford’s highest-performance models. It has been featured on Ford’s most iconic nameplates, including the F-150, Bronco, and Ranger.

‘Echo’ Just Answered a Burning Question We’ve Been Wondering Since ‘Avengers: Endgame’

Marvel Studios made a lot of the fact that Echo, its latest series to drop on Disney Plus, is the first to be released under the brand-new Marvel Spotlight banner — we’re still not entirely sure what that means but basically it’s to be applied to those projects that are standalone and don’t require a doctorate in MCU-ology to understand. At least, that’s what we’ve been told. In actual fact, Echo is arguably more dependent on Marvel’s history than most — it’s both a follow-up to Hawkeye and Daredevil, for one, with your…

These are the weirdest mobile gadgets we’ve seen at CES 2024

The best robots and AI innovations we’ve seen at CES 2024 so far

The Motion Pillow uses AI to help tackle snoring problems and give you a better night's sleep. The AI Motion System detects a user's snoring and slowly inflates airbags to lift their head and open their airway to reduce it. The accompanying app tracks sleep data, including snoring time, airbag operation time, sleep score, sleep time, and even recordings of your snoring to play back later. To build on the technology, the company also introduced an accompanying Motion Ring to monitor your sleep status in real time and send…

Every Apple Vision Pro app we’ve heard about so far

Every confirmed Apple Vision Pro app is designed to work with Apple's unique AR headset, with special controls and UIs.

This essentially means it has a huge focus on rendering 3D objects and capturing your…

We’ve Never Found Anything Like Our Solar System. Is It a Freak in Space? : ScienceAlert

Since the landmark discovery in 1992 of two planets orbiting a star outside of our Solar System, thousands of new worlds have been added to a rapidly growing list of 'exoplanets' in the Milky Way galaxy. We've learnt many things from this vast catalogue of alien worlds orbiting alien stars. But one small detail stands out like a sore thumb. We've found nothing else out there like our own Solar System.This has led some to conclude that our home star and its brood could be outliers in some way – perhaps the only planetary…

We’ve never understood how hunger works. That might be about to change.

“Sure, we managed to have the brain say ‘Go eat,’” he says. “But that’s not really an explanation. How does that actually work?”  To answer that question, Lowell has teamed up with Mark Andermann, a neuroscientist who studies how motivation shapes perception (and who also happens to occupy the office next to his at Boston’s Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center). Together they are following known parts of the neural hunger circuits into uncharted parts of the brain, in some cases activating one neuron at a time to…
