Even soft robots made of flexible materials struggle to deform outside of the physical limits of their building blocks.

While you could always set up a Roku or Apple TV box to stream on, they’re not going to feel all that theatrical.

The tornado is a so-called " Herbig-Haro object ," formed when a newborn star tosses jets of material into interstellar space and creates a grand illumination.

From a human perspective, it can be hard to understand why these models don't simply say "I don't know" instead of making up some plausible-sounding nonsense.

It's no secret that "driving while black" is a real phenomenon. Study after study has shown that minority drivers are ticketed at a higher rate, and data from speed cameras suggests that it's not because they commit traffic violations more frequently. But this leaves open the question of why. Bias is an obvious answer, but it's hard to eliminate an alternative explanation: Minority groups may engage in more unsafe driving, and the police are trying to deter that.
