Adam Sandler’s daughter eclipse famous parents in photos as they support her big career move

Published by Daniella Wilson

Adam Sandler and his wife, Jackie, graced the red carpet alongside their two daughters, Sadie and Sunny,  for the premiere of the new Netflix comedy Roommates. Sadie stars as a leading role in the film, which has been produced by her Adam’s production company, Happy Madison. The actor donned a red Nike zip-up sweater with beige trousers and colorful sneakers at The Egyptian Theatre in Los Angeles. Adam’s wife’s outfit contrasted his casual ensemble with a glamorous black gown that featured razor-thin spaghetti straps and a figure-hugging silhouette. Jackie’s brunette locks were styled into soft waves while her makeup was left natural and radiant.  Sadie looked chic in a black gown that featured an off-the-shoulder neckline with a frilly hem. The 19-year-old’s dark hair was styled into loose curls and she opted for a bold, glossy lip. Meanwhile, Sunny matched her dad’s color agenda in a striking red dress that featured a ruffled hem and a plunging neckline. The 17-year-old similarly wore her hair down into soft waves and her makeup oozed glam, courtesy of …

TechCrunch Mobility: Who is poaching all the self-driving vehicle talent?

Welcome back to TechCrunch Mobility, your hub for the future of transportation and now, more than ever, how AI is playing a part. To get this in your inbox, sign up here for free — just click TechCrunch Mobility! Normally, I have an analysis and then a little bird (my insidery bits curated just for you). But today I am combining them because I simply have too many little birds talking to me about the new talent wars. About seven years ago, the founder of a self-driving vehicle company told me that competing with the likes of Waymo for talent was “like a knife fight.” Now it seems there is a new poaching war going on, according to a handful of little birds. And it’s pushing base salaries (not including equity and other benefits) to between $300,000 and $500,000.  Here’s what is happening. The buzzy physical AI sector is filled with robotics and defense tech companies looking for people with a specific set of skills (to quote Liam Neeson). And these folks are mostly working at …

NASA The Artemis II crew—(clockwise from left) mission specialist Christina Koch, mission specialist Jeremy Hansen, commander Reid Wiseman, and pilot Victor Glover—take time out for a group hug inside the Orion spacecraft on their way home to Earth on April 7, 2026. Following a swing around the far side of the moon on April 6, 2026, the crew exited the lunar sphere of influence (the point at which the moon’s gravity has a stronger pull on Orion than the Earth’s) on April 7 and are headed back to Earth for a splashdown in the Pacific Ocean on April 10. The crew was selected in April 2023, and have been training together for their mission for the past three years. NASA The moon, backlit by the sun during a solar eclipse, is photographed by crew members aboard NASA’s Orion spacecraft on April 6, 2026, during the Artemis II mission.

VC Eclipse has a new $1.3B fund to back — and build — ‘physical AI’ startups

Published by skeptic

It takes just a skim of Eclipse’s recent investments to see where this venture firm’s interests lie — and where it is headed. The Palo Alto-based VC, which saw its median deal size explode over the past several years, has poured an increasing amount of money into the “physical world.” Its deals include electric boat developer Arc, buzzy battery recycling and material firm Redwood Materials, self-driving construction vehicle startup Bedrock Robotics, autonomous vehicle tech company Wayve, and industrial robotics lab Mind Robotics. With $1.3 billion in fresh capital — which is split between a $591 million early-stage incubation fund and one more oriented toward growth startups — Eclipse is zeroing in on what partner Jiten Behl describes as the next big technological era. “Over the last two decades, we’ve seen multiple waves of innovation,” Behl said, listing the internet, mobile cloud, and social media eras. “This is the first time where stuff is going to move from our screens into the physical world; we’re going to see advanced levels of intelligence, along with actual actions, …

NASA Artemis II captures solar eclipse during moon flyby

NASA Artemis II captures solar eclipse during moon flyby

Published by Sam Flores

The crew of Artemis II captured what NASA’s chief called an “absolutely stunning” photo of the moon eclipsing the sun, as the spacecraft broke Apollo 13’s 56-year-old record for the longest distance traveled by humans from Earth. “This is not AI,” NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman said in an interview with CNBC’s “Squawk Box” on Tuesday. “This is why we do what we do,” said Isaacman, as Artemis II continued heading back home to Earth. The White House posted the photo taken Monday by Artemis II, and NASA released other photos from the Orion capsule, which conducted a six-hour flyby of the moon with four astronauts on board. Artemis II view of the moon eclipsing the sun. NASA Isaacman said, “I just looked at the pictures about five minutes before getting on … this interview, and I would just say they looked absolutely stunning.” Artemis’ crew “mentioned this last night during the webcast that they don’t know if human eyes are ready to see what they’ve captured,” he said. A view of the Moon as the …

Artemis II’s defining moment: Earthset, eclipse, and Earthrise around the moon

Artemis II’s defining moment: Earthset, eclipse, and Earthrise around the moon

Published by skeptic

Artemis II astronauts will watch Earth sink and rise behind the moon‘s curved edge today and ride through a slow solar eclipse unlike anything anyone has seen from home. From the windows of the Orion spacecraft, the crew will see Earth as a bright, blue orb hanging above a stark gray foreground. Sunlight reflecting off oceans, clouds, and continents will turn our planet into a luminous beacon in the blackness of deep space. As the spacecraft curves around the moon, that beacon will drift lower and finally slide behind the cratered lunar rim in a slow-motion Earthset. Unlike a sunset on Earth, where the sun drops beneath a distant horizon, this Earthset involves the entire planet. To the astronauts, Earth will seem to glide across the sky and then vanish. In that moment, the place where everyone they know lives will disappear from view, replaced by a silent, airless world. All of this unfolds during today’s close lunar flyby, the centerpiece of NASA‘s Artemis II mission. This swing around the lunar far side marks the …

My gym has a sauna, but it’s gross. It’s also often broken. That’s why a home sauna has started to seem so appealing. The Sun Home Eclipse 2-Person and Eclipse 4-Person saunas represent the current state of home sauna tech: units that combine full-spectrum infrared heating elements with integrated red light therapy (RLT) panels, letting users run either modality independently or both at the same time. That dual approach sets the Eclipse line apart from most infrared saunas on the market, which typically rely on infrared heat alone.

How to View the ‘Blood Moon’ Total Lunar Eclipse on March 3

How to View the ‘Blood Moon’ Total Lunar Eclipse on March 3

Published by skeptic

The first major astronomical event visible in 2026 is a total lunar eclipse, or “blood moon.” This phenomenon is highly prized by stargazers because the entire lunar disk takes on a reddish color for a few moments. The total lunar eclipse will occur on March 3. It will be clearly visible in North and Central America, while in Central and South Asia it will only be partially visible. It will not be visible in Europe or Africa. Although the eclipse will begin in the early morning, totality will occur almost at dawn on March 3. A few hours before sunrise, the full moon will take on its characteristic reddish color for just 12 minutes. Times of the Total Lunar Eclipse or “Blood Moon” Los Angeles: 3:04 am Denver: 4:04 am Chicago: 5:04 am St. Louis: 5:04 am New York: 6:04 am Washington, DC: 6:04 am It’s safe to view a total lunar eclipse, unlike a solar eclipse. You don’t need any special equipment; just go to a high vantage point and dress warmly. Keep in …

The Eclipse of Dallas – The Atlantic

The Eclipse of Dallas – The Atlantic

Published by Daniella Wilson

Countless American downtowns are struggling to find their identity, and their tax base, after the convulsions of the COVID-era remote-work experiment. But only one major city is poised to demolish its seat of government. That would be Dallas, where leaders say the monumental I. M. Pei–designed City Hall is in such bad shape that the city might be better off tearing it down and relocating the government into vacant office buildings nearby. That could create an enormous plot for the Dallas Mavericks, whose casino-company owners, the Adelson-Dumont family, want to build what Mavs CEO Rick Welts calls a “full-blown entertainment district” around their new basketball arena. One of the team’s owners, Miriam Adelson, has also been lobbying to legalize casino gambling in Texas, raising the possibility that Dallas City Hall might ultimately be razed for a casino—a perfect symbol for our era of civic impoverishment and gambling addiction. This half-baked vision may be the nation’s worst downtown-revival strategy, and not only because it would destroy the city’s one-of-a-kind Brutalist colossus. The imagined payoff—a brand-new, suburban-style …

No, trees can’t anticipate a solar eclipse

No, trees can’t anticipate a solar eclipse

Published by Jenni Sidey

Get the Popular Science daily newsletter💡 Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent six days a week. In April 2025, a scientific study went viral online for a particularly wild claim. A forest of Norway spruce trees (Picea abies) in the Dolomites of northern Italy appeared to rapidly synchronize their cellular-level electrical signals—known as electromes—in the hours leading up to a partial solar eclipse in October 2022. If true, the discovery by the Italian Institute of Technology represented a possibly major development in understanding how plants communicate with one another. Despite many critics’ skepticism, headlines describing a “forest-wide phenomenon” of talking trees spread quickly across the internet. Now, one team of scientists believes they have a far more plausible explanation for the supposedly cosmic event in the Dolomite mountains. In short, the spruce trees were charged up with electricity from a recent thunderstorm. The evidence is laid out in a study recently published in the journal Trends in Plant Science—and the paper’s lead investigator isn’t mincing words about it, either. “To me, [the April 2025] paper …
