The NASA-funded CAPSTONE mission is the little probe that could. Despite a rough start to its journey, the cubesat was able to capture a hauntingly beautiful view of the Moon from its unique orbit and test a Moon GPS system for the first time.
Today, Apple’s launching both Final Cut Pro and Logic Pro for the iPad, with the former only running on M1 chips and later and the latter working on models with the A12 Bionic and later. Gizmodo got some lead time with these apps, and while I’m no professional video editor, I have stitched together the occasional…
Disney is a company that always looks at its past to find its future. It brings back characters, concepts, stories, and more; time and time again, it attempts to transport you back to the way you felt when you were a little kid. That’s always been Disney’s thing. But, for the last 15 years or so, it’s been going a…

The popular Backbone One is an excellent accessory that brings a controller-like experience to your iPhone or Android device. It was so successful that the company collaborated with Sony last year to build a PlayStation Edition. This model replaces all of the face buttons with the traditional PlayStation controller layout, with a white finish to match. The PlayStation Edition has been exclusively available for iPhone, until today. Backbone and Sony have collaborated once again to bring the PlayStation Edition variant to Android devices.
As a refresher, the Backbone One PlayStation Edition is an accessory designed in collaboration with Sony that is the closest you’ll get to having a DualSense controller while on the go. Sony says that it will be detected as a DualSense controller within its own PS Remote Play app. That means you’ll be able to play your PS4 or PS5’s catalog of games with something that looks and feels similar to a standard DualSense controller, regardless of whether you have an iPhone or an Android device. Though, you don’t necessarily need this controller specifically to play your games through PS Remote Play. Other controllers will work similarly, just without the special controller detection.
Of course, you’re not exclusively tied to PS Remote Play. The Backbone One will be compatible with other game streaming apps including Xbox Game Pass, Nvidia GeForce Now and Microsoft Luna. The controller accessory will also work with any other games that support standard hardware controllers such as Call of Duty: Mobile. The Backbone One PlayStation Edition for Android will be available starting today for $99.

“My big goals were simply to change perceptions on disability and to inspire other people to climb their own mountains,” said Hari Budha Magar.
LIFT Aircraft’s HEXA human drone is a $495,000 amphibious drone designed to carry a single person into the skies. And, from the looks of its spider-like legs, it harvests other humans for more power to keep itself flying. Trust me; I know how these things work.
The aircraft features 18 independently controlled motors and propellers for precision flying, has a cruise speed of around 45MPH, and a max speed of 63MPH. Its multiple battery packs allow for about 15 minutes of flight time, or just long enough to get me halfway to where I need to go. The semi-autonomous piloting controls its own stability via flight-control computers, so you point it in the direction you want to go, and the system makes the flight as smooth as possible. Nik from Supercar Blondie scored a flight in the HEXA drone and got airborne with about 40 minutes of training.
Well, it’s not exactly George Jetson’s flying car, but I suppose we have to start somewhere. I just wish we were starting somewhere closer to the version in the cartoon. Plus, George’s flying car folded up into his suitcase. Granted, The Jetsons doesn’t take place until 2062, but we’ve definitely got our work cut out for us in the meantime.
