Greenland: EU weighs response to Trump after tariff threat

Redirecting

It's not yet a full year since European leaders buckled up for President Trump's second term, and now this rollercoaster ride feels it has reached its most dangerous turn yet. The occupant on the White House is dangling the threat of economic punishment over the heads of countries that are supporting the territorial integrity of an EU member, Denmark.

Astronomers find a 'cosmic interstellar tunnel' linking our solar system to other stars

Analysis reveals what appears to be a channel of hot, low-density plasma stretching out from our solar system toward distant constellations.

Recent observations of our corner of the universe suggest we have been living inside a hot, less dense region, and that there may even be a strange “cosmic interstellar channel,” or tunnel, connecting us to distant stars.

Orbiting 'sky mirrors' aim to brighten nights, sparking backlash

California firm Reflect Orbital plans 4,000 reflectors to beam light over cities and power sites, alarming astronomers and dark-sky advocates.

The night sky may no longer belong entirely to the darkness if a new space project moves ahead as planned. The vision of the developers is to use sky mirrors to reflect sunlight onto Earth after dusk falls

Why NASA’s Artemis II mission won’t land on the moon https://www.cnn.com/2026/01/17/science/nasa-artemis-ii-moon-mission The spacecraft that could soon carry four people on a historic lunar mission, NASA’s Space Launch System (SLS) rocket and Orion capsule, will take center stage Saturday, making an hours-long journey from the agency’s Vehicle Assembly Building to a launchpad at Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The event, known as rollout, marks the first baby steps on what will be an unprecedented — and, for some, perhaps unexpected — path.

OpenAI to begin testing ads on ChatGPT in the U.S.

OpenAI said ads would not influence ChatGPT's responses and that it will "never" sell user data to advertisers.

OpenAI on Friday announced it will begin testing ads within ChatGPT in the coming weeks, a highly anticipated decision that could kickstart a lucrative new revenue stream for the artificial intelligence startup. OpenAI said its Plus, Pro and Enterprise subscriptions will not include ads, but it plans to start testing them with adult free users in the U.S. The company also made its low-cost Go offering available in the U.S. on Friday, and it said users who opt for that plan will also begin to see ads.

Coinbase Pulls Support Night Before Senate Markup Of Market Structure https://www.forbes.com/sites/jasonbrett/2026/01/14/coinbase-pulls-support-night-before-senate-markup-of-market-structure/ After reviewing the Senate Banking draft text over the last 48 hours, Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong said the exchange “can’t support the bill as written,” warning that provisions on tokenized equities, DeFi, and stablecoin rewards would make the package “materially worse than the current status quo.” The Senate Banking Committee is set to mark up the Senate’s version of H.R. 3633, the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act, on Thursday morning, capping a months‑long negotiation over how crypto will be regulated in the United States for years to come. In its current form, the market structure bill would, for the first time on the Senate side, spell out legal parameters for blockchain tokens by dividing primary oversight between the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), with senators now poised to fight over stablecoin rewards, DeFi, and even presidential ethics before the text leaves committee. The markup is scheduled for Thursday morning at 10 a.m. ET and can be viewed on the committee’s website.

For over a hundred years, physics has rested on two foundational theories. Einstein’s general relativity describes gravity as the curvature of space and time, while quantum mechanics governs the behavior of particles and fields. Each theory is highly successful within its own domain, yet combining them leads to contradictions, particularly in relation to black holes, dark matter, dark energy, and the origins of the universe.

Archaeologists Found a Slab in the Middle of Nowhere—With the Lord’s Prayer Carved in It

“It must have taken days and days of work.”

In 2018, the toppling of a tree near the township of Wawa, Ontario, revealed a rectangular piece of bedrock (about four feet by nearly five feet) etched with 225 symbols alongside a depiction of a Viking longboat. Eventually, a local historian came across the odd finding—now known as the Wawa Runestone—and reported the find to the Ontario Centre for Archaeological Education (OCARE).
