The Game Awards 2022 was a dazzling event full of epic video game reveals and a suite of accolades that serve as a testament to the power of recency bias. God of War Ragnarök hasn’t even been out a month, and yet it took home more awards than any other game. Granted, the sequel to 2018’s game of the year is every bit as good as its predecessor, but we can’t help but wish that the year’s biggest night of games paid more attention to the underdogs.

That being said, Elden Ring did justly win game of the year 2022 despite being out for almost a year, so if you’re even remotely interested in video games, it’s about time you paid attention to one of the all-time greats.

How NASCAR helped NASA prepare for Artemis' dangerous splashdown
 
When NASA’s Orion spacecraft reaches the end of its mission, it will hurtle into Earth’s atmosphere at 24,529 miles per hour. Then, with a special maneuver designed to split up the entry force for a smoother ride — as well as help it reach a desirable landing site at sea — the capsule will ascend a bit. And much like a rock skipping atop a lake, the spacecraft will slow down its momentum following its record-breaking 25.5-day Moon voyage.

Orion is currently flying uncrewed. Its journey for the Artemis I mission is gathering the science required to return humans to the Moon safely. Many things have to go right for NASA to feel comfortable calling on a select few from its astronaut class to prepare for the Moon for the first time since Apollo. Several scenarios are worthy of concern, like visions of the desolate lunar surface, the void of space, and misfiring commands. But when Inverse spoke to former Shuttle astronaut Nancy Currie-Gregg, the 30-year spaceflight veteran said that, to her, the most crucial phase was reentry and landing.

Zack Snyder's DC Universe may be coming to an end
 
Female-fronted superhero films don’t seem to be at the top of Warner Bros. Discovery’s priority list. Months after the cancellation of Batgirl, another girl-power flick has been scrapped. Deadline has confirmed that Wonder Woman 3 is no more. 

The decision was reportedly made by the DC Universe’s new bosses, James Gunn and Peter Safran, who are busy figuring out how to rework DC’s cohort of superheroes for this new era. Some of these characters and stories simply won’t align with the current vision for the sprawling cinematic franchise. Deadline also suggests that Man of Steel 2 has been culled and that Aquaman 2 will be the last time we see Jason Momoa’s take on the hero, essentially ending Zack Snyder’s approach to the DCU.

Dyson's new headphones can also purify the air you breathe
 
Back in March, Dyson announced the Dyson Zone, its first pair of active noise cancellation (ANC) headphones. But unlike your typical pair of ANC headphones, like AirPods Max, or Sony’s WH-1000XM5, the Dyson Zone aren’t just for listening to music — they’re also a personal air purifier.

Dyson says the Zone headphones leverage its expertise in air purification technology while simultaneously tackling the growing issue of noise pollution in major cities. Thursday, the company finally revealed the Dyson Zone’s price and release date: starting at $949 and coming out first in China in January. The U.S., U.K., Hong Kong, and Singapore will have to wait until March 2023.

New laser experiment shows how high poop particles blast after we flush
 
This summer, in Boulder, Colorado, John Crimaldi and his team of civil and environmental engineers gathered around a toilet — for science.

They positioned a laser to beam green light above the lidless bowl: If any normally invisible particles emerged as the toilet flushed, they hypothesized, they would scatter the light and appear as green dots. To record the potty dynamics, the team rigged up a camera a few feet away. Then … flush.

What happened next silenced the researchers. “We were all just stunned,” recalls Crimaldi. “We saw this incredibly energetic jet of particles shooting up towards the ceiling.”
