The Breakthrough Prize, whose co-founders include Sergey Brin, Mark Zuckerberg, and Yuri Milner, is kind of like the "Oscars of science" in that they're glitzy, televised, and crawling with Hollywood celebrities. The most recent prize ceremony, for instance, featured appearances by Mr Beast, Goop founder Gwyneth Paltrow, and Katy Perry, among numerous others, none of whom do much to immediately bring my mind to, y'know, thoughts of science.That also holds...

Bloober Team unveiled its new project Cronos: The New Dawn in 2024 with a cinematic trailer that I quite liked: Man in badass spacesuit plays chess with nice old lady and also blasts away at Dead Space-style creepos in a different time/space/dimension/whatever, and then when he loses the chess game he offs her anyway.
