Many of you know about the demon core, about how it went critical during experiments and killed scientists.
But what if you had two cores and brought them together - just how bad would it be?

After a lot of work I've finally got the first part of my video on Pivotal's Helix, a VTOL which can take off and land without an airfield and fly on wings. I initially approached them asking if I could fly the simulator but in the end they trained me to fly it!

a 757 with only the pilots onboard leaving dallas at like 3 am yesterday got permission to do an unrestricted climb (plane go up real fast) to 17,000 feet and everyone, including the controllers, was hilariously excited

Here's our images of interstellar object #A11pl3Z from Deep Random Survey's 0.43-meter scope @ Chile. The telescope was following A11pl3Z's motion, so stars appear smeared. Weather got worse by the end, so still hard to tell if it's a comet.
600-sec exposures, from 2025 Jul 2, 00:42-01:23 UT

Randomly discovered that the only US Battleship to get underway during the attack on Pearl Harbor - The USS Nevada - would be the primary target for the operation Crossroads nuclear test. But it survived because the bomb was too far off target.
