The Blade Runner 2049 trailer has just come out! It looks like it captures the feel of the original Blade Runner, and even has Harrison Ford… Or at least it will until he gets run through by a lightsaber… no, wait… I have that mixed up with something else. Nevermind....
The latest trailer for “Valerian (and Laureline) and the City of a Thousand Planets” looks even more amazing than the first trailer!
Riding on my earlier post about the TRAPPIST-1 star system, I’ve decided to post a couple more informative videos. The first is a 9 minute PBS video describing some of the science behind the discovery and the possible implications for any life that might have evolved there. The second video is...
NASA has just announced the discovery of a star system (TRAPPIST-1) with not one, not two, not three… not six, but seven Earth-sized rocky planets, two of which are potentially habitable! The star system is just a Kessel Run away (12 parsecs, or 40 light years), so spin up the...

The first trailer for Luc Besson’s new film, Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets, has just come out, and it looks pretty awesome. He’s best know for the hit sci-fi movie The Fifth Element, and Valerian seems to have a similar vibe. You can read a bit more about it on...
The second full trailer for Star Wars: Rogue One is out, and it’s packed with some spectacular scenes! We also get see Darth Vader, though I’m pretty sure he won’t have too much screen time as he’s not the focus of the film or even the villain (the villain is...
Tony Stark Elon Musk has announced SpaceX’s big plans for getting a human colony set up on Mars, perhaps sometime mid-century or so if everything pans out. That’s some pretty big ambitions, and it’s risky too, but ambition and risk are two things humanity must have in abundance if we...
