The NASA app has always been a solid scientific resource for armchair astronauts, but some recent updates have taken it from educational to sensational. This is in part due to a new augmented reality tool, stunning 360-degree videos, and an awesome use of the widgets functionality in iOS 14.

1. A galactic gallery 

The NASA app contains as many as 19,000 official images that you can browse, rate, and favorite. What we love about the NASA image database is that as well as share the images, you're completely free to use them as your smartphone or tablet's wallpaper or lock screen image, which can look out of this world.  Read more...

Welp, there's no denying 2020 was a pretty weird year for films, even if we did end up seeing a bunch of stuff we liked. So we won't even try to pretend to know what to expect from 2021.

1MLK/FBI (Jan. 15) 

Martin Luther King Jr. needs no introduction — he's still rightfully revered today as one of the greatest heroes in American history. But Samuel D. Pollard's critically acclaimed documentary promises to be a searing and timely reminder that he wasn't always thought of that way. Digging into the FBI's thorough campaign to surveil the civil rights leader in hopes of discrediting him and his movement, MLK/FBI digs into the legacy of the former, the dark history of the latter, and the ugly collision between them. — Angie Han, Deputy Entertainment Editor  Read more...

My wife’s memory is so terrible, I’ve become her memory-keeper, faithfully logging her favorite burgers on my iPhone and remembering every variation of her usual password. “The usual” (not her actual password) has been my wife’s password for at least 10 years, although there’s now a second “usual” for the accounts we share, plus a handful of variations to reflect password requirements like capitalization, numbers, or special characters. 

According to LastPass’s Psychology of Passwords report, 44 percent of survey respondents recycle identical or similar passwords across sites despite knowing this is unsafe. And 53 percent of survey respondents said they haven’t changed a password in 12 months despite hearing of a data breach.  Read more...

1. One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest 

Adapted from the classic Ken Kesey novel, this 1975 asylum-set drama follows the exploits of a charismatic criminal who thought playing crazy would be easier than jail time. However, Randle Patrick McMurphy (Jack Nicholson) soon learns this institution is rife with abuse, thanks to the merciless Nurse Ratched (Louise Fletcher). Milos Forman directs an impeccable ensemble that boasts Danny DeVito, Will Sampson, Christopher Lloyd, and Brad Dourif. The film's scorching drama and bold performances not only scored it box office success, but also five Academy Awards, including Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Director, Best Actress (Fletcher), Best Actor (Nicholson), and Best Picture.
