An image of Comet NEOWISE marred by Starlink satellites.Photo: Daniel López Nowhere is safe from light pollution, not even space. On Wednesday, astrophotographer Daniel López shared a photo he captured of Comet NEOWISE the day before at Teide National Park on the Canary Islands. However, SpaceX’s Starlink satellites ruined the image, painting streaks across the otherwise largely pristine sky.
In a paper titled Efficient Rendering of Heterogeneous Poly-Disperse Granular Media, researchers from Disney Research Zurich, ETH Zurich, and Dartmouth College outline a new methodology they’ve created for simulating the appearance and motion of millions of grains—tiny particles that can represent everything from sugar, to salt, to sand—that not only makes them look more realistic, but render fast
A massive gallery of behind-the-scenes Blade Runner slides has been uploaded to the internet, revealing a teeny, tiny world of space blimps and flying cars, all crafted with special care and beautiful attention to detail. Take a look at the dystopian miniatures, each tiny car hand painted with future dirt from riding clouds stuffed with future smog. There's even a tiny version of Yellow Flame Sush

Now, an Australian research vessel has discovered a new kind of fish living in volcanoes off the coast of the continent. It’s called a scaleless blackfish and it’s adorably ugly. The team is still trying to identify this tiny blackfish with translucent fangs and no scales (UPDATE: At least two sci
They found them in a file cabinet. The original masters for a legendary typeface called Haas Unica, designed in the late 1970s and killed shortly thereafter by what amounts to bad luck—and the digital age. The person who found them was Dan Rhatigan, the Director of Type at the foundry Monotype. He was actually looking for old materials to include in an exhibition about the transition from traditio
Not at all long ago, in our galaxy just two planets away, NASA's Messenger probe discovered what appears to be a raised human shape in the surface of Mercury—and it bears a striking resemblance to Star Wars' Han Solo. The photo was actually captured back in July of 2011, although it hadn't seen public eyes until just last week. And in commendable nerd form, the scientists offered this fantastic qu
