Apple is increasingly focusing on building its own devices and expanding its ecosystem by taking steps towards a more native experience for users and relying less on third-party accessories. While the Cupertino-based tech giant's HomePod and AppleTV have left quite the mark in the smart home category, it generally relies more on outsourcing cameras and other hardware for smart homes. Now, a new report suggests that the company intends to create a fully integrated experience by developing its own smart home accessories. Gurman hints about Apple working on making smart home products like security cameras for a more integrated experience […]

The Janthir Wilds expansion DLC was released in August this year, […]
It would always be a tough call, following the deeply Starship Troopers-inspired Helldivers 2 into the online co-op multiplayer space. However, through its early access, Offworld’s licensed horde shooter has performed impressively well. But how is it f...
SpaceX's multi billion dollar Starship Human Landing System (HLS) rocket for NASA's Artemis program to land the first humans on the Moon since the Apollo program will have at least two floors and be capable of carrying a crew of 20 astronauts suggest fresh details on X. While SpaceX has been busy testing the full Starship test in Boca Chica, Texas, the firm has shared little details about the $2.9 billion contract that NASA awarded it in 2021 to build the HLS. Now, according to an educator who recently visited SpaceX's Texas facilities, Starship HLS' early design mock ups include […]
NASA has shared a list of potential locations for the first human lunar landing since the Apollo era. NASA, along with SpaceX, will fly to the Moon on the Artemis III mission using its Space Launch System (SLS) and SpaceX's Starship Human Landing System (HLS) lander. The mission, slated to take place sometime in 2026, barring potential delays to the Orion or SpaceX's Starship, will be the first human presence on the lunar South Pole in history. According to the agency, it has identified nine potential Artemis III locations and a landing on any of them will be the first […]
SpaceX's next-generation upper-stage Starship spacecraft, which should soon fly on future flights, has been fully unveiled at the firm's facilities in Texas. The Starship upper stage is the world's first and only upper stage spacecraft capable of being reused, and the key to this capability is ensuring that the ship returns to Earth intact. On this front, several Starship tests have seen the upper stage's forward grid fins catch fire, and the new ship will rectify this by ensuring that vulnerable regions point away from the fast and hot air that flows around them during atmospheric reentry. SpaceX's Next Generation […]
SpaceX conducted a set of stunning Raptor engine static fires at its McGregor, Texas, earlier today, through which it fired a single rocket engine more than 30 times. This is the first test of its kind, and it's likely part of SpaceX's mantra of pushing its rocket engines to the limit to understand any potential design flaws. Raptor reliability was an early issue with the Starship launch vehicle program, and over the course of successive flights, SpaceX appears to have ironed out the kinds in its design. These engines are among the most powerful in the world, and they are […]
With Starship Flight proving that a tower catch is indeed possible, SpaceX is now racing to upgrade the design of the second stage Starship to avoid flap damage during atmospheric reentry. The upper stage Starship's forward flap was one of the highlights of Flight 4, as, throughout the spacecraft's reentry, the appendage was engulfed in fire. Yet, despite the damage, Starship survived reentry and made its first successful soft splashdown in the Indian Ocean to allow SpaceX to progress towards an eventual ship tower catch. Soon after Flight 4, Elon Musk shared that future Starship upper stages would feature upgraded […]
Ahead of SpaceX's Starship Flight 5, Elon Musk was unsure whether the tower arms would successfully catch the Super Heavy booster during the test. SpaceX's booster catch was one of the most important test objectives of the Starship program since it is vital to reusing the rocket booster for rapid flights. Before Flight 5, SpaceX had shared that it would carefully evaluate the booster's systems during launch, and a manual go ahead would be given by the launch director before a catch attempt. The successful catch surprised many, including Musk, and it also paved the way for additional ambitious test […]
SpaceX's Raptor engines on the Starship Super Heavy booster weren't the only equipment on the booster that was warped after Starship Flight 5. A closer look at the test's footage shows that the booster's grid fins were also disfigured after the second stage Starship spacecraft separated from the first stage to start its journey. These fins are essential for the booster's landing, and despite the damage, they worked well to guide Starship Super Heavy back to the launch pad for the first tower catch of the Starship program. SpaceX also uses grid fins on the Falcon 9 rocket's first stage […]
SpaceX has shared fresh images of its Starship Flight 5 test as teams in Starbase celebrate the booster's return to the assembly facilities. The Starship tests are the first of their kind to broadcast high definition views of some of the most strenuous portions of a rocket journey courtesy of SpaceX's Starlink satellite internet constellation. The latest batch of images shows both the Super Heavy booster and the upper stage Starship in the foreground as the Earth's curvature is visible. They also show the second stage Starship spacecraft engulfed in plasma during its return to Earth. SpaceX Shares Fresh Starship […]
