This is amazing. I would attend 10x more live theater if it incorporated immersive techniques like this.

If you have a #Quest2 be sure to check out the #Artemis launch coverage in #VR tomorrow morning, created by Felix & Paul Studios (of the outstanding Space Explorers series). (And if you do, please tell me how it is because original Oculus / Quest owners are not invited) 1/2

Software used to come with manuals. Why is that no longer a thing?
I'm anxious about today's Inspiration 4 launch. Can't help thinking about Christa McAuliffe, and the oft-repeated (good) advice that "there's nothing routine about spaceflight".

My folks turned me on to the movie soundtrack show “The Score”, with anecdotes and interviews by Edmund Stone, which I now listen to every Saturday at 2pm PT on @AllClassicalPDX.
First ArcLight, and now these guys too…. Bummer. abc7.com/movie-theaters-are-…

This new ability of the Apple Watch to extract hand gestures from muscle movement and tendon activity is amazing.

Why do AMC Theaters insist on showing 'behind-the-scenes' trailers for the movie you're about to see, right before you see it? SPOILERS, people! Come on! You already have my money, now let me ENJOY THE MOVIE. (BTW 'Wrath of Man' -- fun movie!) #AMCHelps #AMCTheaters @AMCHelps

Big reusable rockets get all the glory, but “little” projects like this one - which extends the life of spacecraft already on orbit - suggest biz opportunities for many more players in space (and maybe less space junk!).

May the 4th be with you. Always.
The helicopter is cool, but this experiment is concrete proof that oxygen - for humans to breathe and rockets to burn as fuel - can be manufactured from local materials on Mars. Essential resources for any future settlement of the planet.

This day is a milestone for the ISRU community. MOXIE just produced oxygen from Atmospheric CO2 on Mars on the Perseverance rover! JPL and NASA just issued this press release 1 hour ago: mars.nasa.gov/news/8926/nasa…
I like that you pulled a GIF from the original Fright Night. 🧛

Seen a recurring topic where “better than you” filmmakers mock the templates and DIY resources newbie filmmakers are using. Instead of punching down, you know what would be a better use of your time? Supporting these filmmakers for having the gusto to bring their stories to life
