Why do so many galaxies in space look like this?

Why do so many galaxies in space look like this?

Flat. Like a streak across space. Thin. Stretched out. How come whenever we see galaxies, they always look like this? NASA has the answer. And it has something to do with how a ball of dough becomes pizza.

This Was the First Plane To Cost $1 Billion More Than We Expected

This Was the First Plane To Cost $1 Billion More Than We Expected

Delivering America’s military might to foreign shores is no small feat, especially when that might is the size of an M-1 Abrams tank. For more than half a century, we’ve relied on one of the largest military aircraft in existence to do so—a plane that ended up costing just a little more to build than we expected.

The beautiful Milky Way is above us and around us but is also actually in our coffee cups too. What? Just watch Modernist Cuisine pour creamer into coffee in super slow motion, it’s like watching another galaxy form or something.

Samsung Galaxy viral campaign runs into snafu when star player tweets from iPhone

It’s a song that has been sung before — a popular person, hired by a company to promote its products, inadvertently uses a competitor’s device in a public way. Such was the case with Alicia Keys earlier this year, for example, when she tweeted from an iPhone while promoting BlackBerry. Bound to afflict anyone who […]

Samsung’s Android-powered Galaxy NX camera available in the US today from $1,600

Samsung's Androidpowered Galaxy NX camera available in the US today from $1,600

Samsung’s Android-powered interchangeable-lens camera is clearly positioned as a niche device, due in no small part to its sky-high $1,600 body-only price tag, but deep-pocketed early adopters can pick up a Galaxy NX at US retailers beginning today. The 20.3-megapixel ILC has a 1.6GHz quad-core chipset and Jelly Bean under the hood, so you can install thousands of applications for editing, storing and sharing images captured through the 16-55mm kit lens. We can’t say we’ll be queueing for the opportunity to pick one up, though — while it’s a fine camera, the NX is significantly overpriced, especially considering that you’ll soon be able to take home a full-frame Sony Alpha 7 for just a few hundred dollars more.

Samsung Galaxy NX review: an overpriced Android-powered mirrorless camera

Samsung Galaxy NX review: an overpriced Android-powered mirrorless camera

Samsung’s flagship interchangeable-lens camera, the NX300, is by far the company’s most impressive shooter to date. It offers stellar hybrid-autofocus capabilities, excellent image quality and integrated WiFi, and it retails for a hair over $550. For all intents and purposes, it’s a very competitive option, if not one of the best deals on the market today. It’s frustrating, then, that Samsung opted to price the Galaxy NX — an Android-powered camera based on the NX300 — at an obscene $1,700, lens included. If you’re not a deep-pocketed early adopter, it’s absolutely a dealbreaker. But I still enjoyed my two-week test with the Galaxy NX, and if you manage to overlook the MSRP, you might just fall in love.%Gallery-slideshow121859%
