No motion capture. No tethers. Just onboard perception and reinforcement learning taking on the real world. Watch our vision-based policy handle noisy depth streams and intermittent visibility to roll, upright, and re-orient tires in an unmapped skatepark and learn how we built and trained this onboard system: rai-inst.com/resources/blog/…

Join NASA’s Night Sky Network on Wednesday, Nov. 4, at 6:00 p.m. PT (9:00 p.m. ET) for a livestream discussing half a century of science with our Voyager mission as Voyager 1 approaches 1 light-day from Earth. The event will also be recorded. Details: youtu.be/lG0djnmkRYM
ALT An illustration of one of NASA’s twin Voyager probes against an abstract purple and blue background that gives the impression of deep space. Voyager has a white, upturned dish atop a black cylindrical body. A long antenna extends from the body toward the upper left and other shorter hardware protrudes from the sides and bottom. The image is watermarked “Artist’s concept” and “Credit: NASA/JPL-Caltech.”

Trump is dismantling the science system that made America a superpower. NIH has delayed or canceled over 2,000 grants on Alzheimer’s, cancer and more, NSF is withholding more than $1 billion, Energy lost over 1,000 scientists, and Pentagon labs lost 14% of their staff, which the Pentagon itself says could have grave consequences for defense. China is catching up while foreign Ph.D. applications drop 21%. We built this over 80 years, and it’s being gutted in under two. nytimes.com/2026/10/31/clima… #MedSky #LawSky #press #Science #NIH #NSF #Research #DOGE #China

In a little-noticed webpage update, the Environmental Protection Agency has announced a plan to decommission its online web archive at the end of the year, a move that would wipe tens of thousands of publicly available environmental resources from the web. motherjones.com/environment/…

We need to get rid of the presidential pardon power. It’s a mistake we haven’t already.

EA's complete misunderstanding of BioWare's RPG heritage and a desire for mass market, microtransaction-fuelled action games has robbed us of one of the industry's greats. bit.ly/4skXwy5

A BioWare dev on reddit leaked a Mass Effect 5 trailer... it's called MASS EFFECT UNIVERSE and it's fucking gorgeous. I'm crying. This is everything I wanted. They were a lot farther than we thought. FUCK EA

Now on display at the Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center: A Lockheed F-117A Nighthawk
The F-117 is the world’s first true operational stealth combat aircraft. The Museum's F-117 was restored for display by Lockheed Martin Skunk Works, which included demilitarizing the aircraft and restoring it to its final operational appearance.
