Several of this week’s planned rocket launches ended up being hit with last-second aborts and delays, but that didn’t stop Mother Nature from giving California residents a reason to stare skyward anyway. Late Wednesday night some truly bizarre streaks appeared in the sky over the Bay Area, prompting countless witnesses to tweet their own sightings while asking just what the heck it was.

According to scientists from various observatories, the strange question mark shaped trail that appeared in the sky was actually the leftovers of a meteor that came tumbling down to Earth. Oftentimes when a meteor burns through Earth’s atmosphere it produces a bright flash and little else, but in this particular case a wispy cloud was produced in its wake.

It was a number of months ago that astronauts aboard the International Space Station were forced to deal with a rather unusual problem. The space station’s sensors alerted them to the presence of an air leak in the Soyuz ship that brought crew to the station and remained attached. A leak is obviously a very serious thing when we’re talking about a spacecraft, and the hole that was found has led to a months-long investigation into who created it, when, and why.

News about the leak had died down a bit until just recently, but the big question at the back of everyone’s mind was whether the leak would pose any kind of threat during the return trip. NASA and Russisa’s space group Roscosmos believed there was no risk, and today the ship finally made its way back to Earth with three crew members on board.

When Samsung launched the Galaxy S8 in early 2017, we got to see a new vision for Samsung’s smartphone design. The Galaxy S8’s main feature was the Infinity display with its curved edges and small side bezels. Samsung made some minor refinements to the design this year when the Galaxy S9 came out, but that phone was too boring for most fans and sales have been disappointing. It looked almost exactly like its predecessor. Come 2019, Samsung will introduce as many as four different versions of the Galaxy S10, all featuring a next-generation Infinity screen. And now we have one more leak to confirm the Galaxy S10’s gorgeous design.

A few weeks ago, Marvel and Disney finally released the first Avengers 4, revealing that Endgame will be the film’s title. We dissected it soon after the trailer hit YouTube, looking for various clues about what’s about to happen in the Infinity War sequel. We ended up finding even more questions than answers, not that we expected Marvel to reveal too much ahead of the film’s premiere. However, Marvel did release a new IMAX trailer for the film, which already seems to explain one of the mysteries from the original version of the trailer.

An already serious legal battle between Apple and Qualcomm is starting to intensify. Not only are the two companies duking it out in jurisdictions across multiple countries, the stakes have become increasingly high with each passing month. Most recently, a German court ruled that certain iPhone models with Intel modems infringe upon Qualcomm patents and cannot be sold in the country, according to a report from Reuters.

Apple is naturally planning to appeal the ruling and the looming ban. In the interim, all of Apple’s 2018 iPhone models remain available for purchase across the country. Apple, though, indicated that it has stopped selling the iPhone 7 and iPhone 8 at its retail stores in Germany, though the devices can still be picked up via local carriers.

Now that 2018 is winding down we can safely say that it has been a banner year at the box office. A whopping 15 movies this year have managed to gross more than $500 million worldwide, including four movies that pulled in over $1 billion. That list includes Incredibles 2 at $1.24 billion, Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom with $1.30 billion, Black Panther with $1.35 billion, and Avengers: Infinity War, which managed to gross a ridiculous $2.05 billion at the box office. In case you’re wondering, that makes Infinity War the fourth highest grossing movie in history behind Star Wars: The Force Awakens, Titanic, and Avatar, which raked in $2.79 billion worldwide.

Marvel was indeed the top studio yet again in 2018, and 2019 is shaping up to be more of the same. There will be five additions to the Marvel Cinematic Universe that will premiere next year, and they’re all shaping up to be smash hits at the box office. Are they all among the most hotly anticipated new films of 2019, though?
