ASUS is teasing a new series of AM5 platform motherboards called 'NEO,' which will include models from the ROG, TUF Gaming, and ProArt series, expected to be showcased at CES 2026. These appear to be refreshes of existing models with minor updates, possibly including improved connectivity features, and will be distinguished by the 'NEO' suffix in their names.
The NEO robot from startup 1X, priced at $20,000, is a remote-controlled household robot that requires human operators to perform tasks, highlighting that practical autonomous humanoid robots are still in development and often serve more as hype than reality.
The Neo robot from 1X is a $20,000 humanoid designed to assist with household tasks like laundry and grocery delivery, featuring human-like movement, AI capabilities, and privacy considerations, with initial shipments expected in 2026.
A study estimates the likelihood of dying from a >140 meter asteroid impact at about once every 11,000 years, comparing this rare event to more common risks like lightning strikes and car accidents, and emphasizes the importance of planetary defense efforts.
NASA's close flyby of the asteroid 2025 MA90, about 280 feet in size, offers scientists a valuable opportunity to study Near-Earth Objects and improve asteroid trajectory predictions, despite the asteroid posing no threat to Earth.
Will Smith revealed he turned down roles in 'Inception' and 'The Matrix,' citing a lack of understanding and believing he made the right choice at the time, though he now questions those decisions.
NASA's Defense Coordination Office has revealed that a 160-foot asteroid named 2015 AK1 will pass Earth today at a distance of approximately 6 million kilometers, traveling at a speed of 47608 kilometers per hour. Despite its size, it is not classified as a Potentially Hazardous Object, but close monitoring and tracking technology have been developed by space agencies to ensure safety.
NASA has issued an alert about a massive asteroid, 2023 GF2, that is predicted to pass close to Earth on April 30. The asteroid, measuring 87 feet, is coming at a speed of 17235 kmph and will fly past Earth at a close distance of just 2.74 million miles. NASA's Planetary Defense Coordination Office raised a red flag for any Near Earth Object (NEO) within 4.6 million miles of Earth. It remains to be seen whether this asteroid poses a threat to Earth.
NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory has issued a warning about a 250-foot asteroid, named 2023 GG, that is expected to pass dangerously close to Earth on April 11. The asteroid will pass within 0.946 million miles of Earth, travelling at a speed of 38102 kmph. NASA's Center for Near Earth Object Studies is responsible for monitoring all known near-Earth objects to assess their potential impact risk and is actively researching and planning for ways to prevent or minimize the impact of a potential collision if one were to be discovered.
NASA has issued an alert about a 99-foot asteroid named 2023 FY6, which is expected to pass very close to Earth on April 2 at a distance of just 2.38 million miles. The potentially hazardous asteroid is travelling at a speed of 81013 kmph. While there are no objects currently posing a threat to Earth, scientists continue to scan the skies for unknown asteroids. NASA is actively researching and planning for ways to prevent or minimize the impact of a potential collision if one were to be discovered.
