Researchers using high-resolution 3D simulations on powerful supercomputers found that stellar rotation greatly enhances the mixing of elements from a star’s core to its surface, explaining observed chemical changes in red giants; rotating stars mix materials over 100 times faster than non-rotating ones, revealing rotation as a key driver of stellar evolution and informing predictions for the Sun’s future.
AI disruption is accelerating a market rotation toward value-oriented sectors, pressuring software leaders and prompting investors to focus on durable moats; Intuit and peers have seen sharp re-ratings, with the biggest risk being a sudden end to cyclical growth or unforeseen AI impacts that could derail the trend.

NASA's exoplanet-hunting telescope TESS observed interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS during Jan. 15–22, compiling a 28‑hour sequence to study the comet’s activity and rotation. The object appeared at about magnitude 11.5, and MIT researcher Daniel Muthukrishna stitched the observations into a video showing its trajectory as it leaves the solar system. Although TESS briefly entered safe mode, causing a time jump, the January data are publicly available, and scientists hope to infer how fast the nucleus spins and how dust and gas are shed from the comet.
Google is rolling out a fix for the Phone app’s unwanted rotation by adding a 'Keep portrait mode' option in Display settings, making portrait the default during calls. To enable, go to the Phone app > Menu > Settings > Display options > Keep portrait mode. The rollout is broad, and users should see the setting appear automatically; if not, they can follow the provided steps to ensure a static portrait UI.

They’re also weighing pitcher additions (MacKenzie Gore, Kris Bubic) and exploring other routes to upgrade the rotation, including potential trades or additional short-term free agents, while balancing payroll and positional flexibility.
Investors are rotating away from Big Tech into a broader leadership group, expanding market breadth and helping the S&P 500 push higher in 2026 even as concerns about Fed independence linger.
