Until Elon Musk gets his act together and, to paraphrase Total Recall , gets our collective ass to Mars , it’s unlikely that you’ll be picking up any official Mars stamps in your passport. A rare exception to that rule took place this week. Passengers arriving in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), received a special limited-edition stamp in “martian ink,” extracted from the same kind of volcanic basalt rocks that lend Mars its recognizable rusty color. This stamp was to celebrate the arrival of the UAE Mars Mission at the red planet on February 9. The spacecraft, called Hope, was launched in July 2020 on a Japanese H-IIA rocket, and has spent the subsequent seven months on its ways to Mars. This week, it finally reached Martian orbit. Hope is the UAE’s first interplanetary mission, the result of decades of work. It will be used to take a complete picture of the atmosphere on Mars. The commemorative stamp given to passengers reads: “You’ve arrived in the Emirates. The Emirates is … [Read more...] about Hundreds of travelers now have Mars stamps in their passports. Here’s why

In Red Dead Redemption 2 , you’ll likely find enjoyment in exploring the massive world it has to offer. After all, part of the fun is stumbling across little experiences that you’d miss if you were zipping around the map through fast travel menus. However, you are able to skip much of the exploration if you want by fast traveling — but you’ll need to make a few preparations before you’re able to do so. The game doesn’t explain much about this feature, though, since it wants you to enjoy everything in a slow and methodical way.

The current President of the United States is a big fan of trains. President Joe Biden likes trains so much, in fact, that he’s often referred to as “ Amtrak Joe ,” because he used to take the Amtrak to work every day while he was in the Senate. Biden has repeatedly said he wants to unite the country, and while it may not be the most obvious way to do it, it’s possible trains could help get us closer to accomplishing that goal. Here’s why. A different kind of social network One of the reasons the U.S. is so divided is that most of us live in our own little bubbles. Political scientists call it the urban-rural divide . Generally speaking, liberals tend to live in cities, and conservatives tend to live in rural areas. Studies have shown that when you burst these bubbles and have people from different ideological backgrounds interact more, they tend to find areas of common ground and feel less divided. Perhaps if we facilitated this kind of bubble … [Read more...] about It’s high time for the U.S. to build a high-speed rail network

Hot on the heels of Octopath Traveler , Square Enix is at it again with Project Triangle Strategy . It’s another “working title” we can expect it to formally adopt, as if there was ever another name in the running. The game reuses much of the aesthetic charm that Octopath Traveler adopted as a homage to the golden years of JRPGs . Is this new strategy title a worthy follow-up to the legendary Final Fantasy Tactics , or just a pixelated attempt to cash in on nostalgia? Judging from the demo, I’m inclined to say it’ll live outside the shadow of its most common direct comparison. But, if the narrative doesn’t draw you in, don’t expect to see the journey through. Before thrusting you into the deep end, the demo wisely admits that you’ll struggle to grasp the story from the few battles you have ahead of you. Tossing you straight into a battle from Chapter XI, things have already reached fever pitch. With death and destruction all around, it’s hard to take stock of the … [Read more...] about Project Triangle Strategy features promising tactics, but the story holds it back

Professional athletes use the many tools available to them these days to stay on top of their game. Most NFL players have their own nutritionists, personal trainers, and life coaches. But they also have access to the best, top-of-the-line technology, not only to help them get ahead on the scoreboard, but to recover after repeated tackles by 300-pound linemen. “Marginal gains separate those who get the outcome they want and those who don’t,” said Dr. Michael Gervais, a sports psychologist. “Technology has been an important part of creating the competitive advantage.” Technology in the sports medicine field hasn’t been around for long. Before cryotherapy, electrostimulation pads, and infrared saunas, athletes were simply told to stretch, hydrate, and elevate. Needless to say, a lot has changed since then. Football players used to retire in their 20s, whereas today we have players like Tom Brady and Adam Vinatieri who are still going well into their … [Read more...] about On the mend: Inside the rapid recovery tech that keeps NFL players game-ready
