    B&O Play Beoplay A1 review - a stunningly beautiful premium Bluetooth speaker
    B&O Play is the somewhat younger-skewed, sub-brand of Bang & Olufsen but it maintains many of the principles of its higher-end sibling. This is certainly evident with its premium Beoplay A1 Bluetooth speaker. At £199, it’s on the pricier end of the Bluetooth speaker spectrum but it’s still considerably less than competing options from the likes of Bowers & Wilkins and Riva. It may cost less than some, but when it comes to looks it’s no contest. The Beoplay A1 is not only the best-looking Blueto..

    Particles forged in the heart of a nearby supernova are still raining onto Earth today
    After analyzing years of data, researchers have found that majority of cosmic rays raining on earth today were sent by a nearby supernova about 2.3 million years ago. A study on the findings published in the journal Science suggested that a past research on a galactic neighborhood supernova was right. Rays forged by the nearby supernova are still raining onto our planet today, as per the study. To get the results, a researcher from the Washington University and an author of the study, Robert..

    Stunning discovery: Monkeys in North America?
    Scientists have unearthed monkey teeth that could significantly change the animals’ migration history. Scientists have long thought that monkeys first ventured from South America into North America no earlier than about 4 million years ago, when the two continents merged. But seven teeth unearthed in Panama may change that story. These monkey teeth were discovered encased in 21-million-year-old rocks. This suggests that the primates accomplished the impossible, crossing the more than 100 mil..

    No Man's Sky's stunning graphics are only one of the reasons why Sci-Fi geeks are hyped up about it
    The developers released a video explaining how visual algorithms expand the game’s universe, as one of the core features of the game is its reliance on procedural generation on an epic scale. What this implies is that when Hello Games artists craft a spiky animal back or an unusual set of leaves, these elements get mashed and combined in whopping combinations throughout the full in-game universe. The developers explain in the presentation video that the new DNA for plants and creatures does ..
