A strange, lopsided dust cloud shrouds Earth’s moon, ever skewed toward whichever side is facing the sun. Now, a new study may finally explain how the asymmetrical cloud got its shape.Most of the moon’s surface is covered by a layer of gray dust and loose rocks. This layer, called regolith, arises because the lunar surface is constantly bombarded by micrometeoroids — tiny space rocks created by asteroid collisions and comets. Without a protective atmosphere — which, in Earth’s case, causes micrometeoroids to burn up as “shooting stars” — the moon is struck by several tons of micrometeoroids daily. These impacts,…
Devolver Digital had a lovely little surprise up its sleeve this fine Thursday. The publisher released an animated short for Ball x Pit, the roguelite mashup sensation that’s put a serious dent in the productivity levels of several of the Engadget crew.

It is impossible to overstate just how big an impact Star Trek: The Next Generation had on an entire generation of kids growing up in the 1990s. I watched every episode with my mom. When I walked into my friend’s house after school, a gigantic cardboard cutout of virile, bald Captain Jean-Luc Picard greeted us in the hall. I followed Wil Wheaton, who played precocious teen Wesley Crusher, on social media well into my twenties. My son (I am not lying about this) is named Wesley. My husband thinks we named him after the explorer John Wesley Powell. We did…
Square Enix is currently in the middle of a reboot. Following a bunch of flops (remember Foamstars?) and some great games held back by timed exclusivity (Final Fantasy XVI, Final Fantasy VII Rebirth), the RPG publisher has been pivoting to a multiplatform approach and retooling its slate of upcoming releases. It’s also, apparently, making a big push into leveraging generative AI. The company announced a new goal of having 70 percent of quality assurance and game debugging work handled by generative AI by 2027. “Through the use of automation technology, [we] aim to improve the efficiency of QA operations and…
The iPhone Air is flopping. There, I’ve said it! This bold new experiment that one obscure Chinese brand (Tecno with its Spark Slim model) started a year ago has tricked Samsung and Apple into thinking that ultra-thin phones are the next big (ironically) thing in tech.According to the latest rumors, Samsung has already canceled the Galaxy S26 Edge, and Apple, on the other hand, scaled back the iPhone Air production amid slow adoption and underwhelming sales.Where’s the parallel with the iPhone Mini, and why do I think that the iPhone Air will meet the same fate, probably only lasting two…

At its apex during the second century CE, the vast empire encompassed more than 55 million citizens living between present-day Britain to the west and as far east as Syria. Its vast network of roadways facilitated tax collection, military transport, trade, and everyday travel. But after almost 2,000 years, today’s historians still lack a complete understanding of the empire’s myriad routes. After analyzing a range of topographical maps, satellite images, firsthand records, and archaeological…
Look, there’s a good chance you don’t know half the ingredients in a given adaptogen drink—or if you’ve heard the name, you don’t know what each ingredient is supposed to do for you. So a short glossary is in order, among some of the most common ingredients.Note, however, that homeopathic adaptogens are not prescription medicine. The science mostly is not in.
