NASA’s solar-powered helicopter is getting ready for its journey to Mars
With less than a year to go before NASA’s Mars 2020 mission is scheduled to launch, it’s an “all hands on deck” affair at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory. There, engineers are piecing together all of the sensitive components that will make the Mars 2020 rover tick, and the latest addition might be the most exciting of them all: the Mars Helicopter.
Much has been made about the Mars 2020 rover’s exciting capabilities, but it’s not the only robot that will be exploring Mars once the mission makes it to the Red Planet. The Mars Helicopter will be deployed to the surface of the planet shortly after the rover makes a safe landing, and if it takes to the skies as NASA plans, it will become the first manmade aircraft to fly on another planet.

‘Avengers: Endgame’ has a huge mistake that almost everybody missed
The digital and Blu-ray version of Avengers: Endgame have been out for a few weeks out now, giving fans of the MCU the best way to enjoy the film again. Now that you know what Avengers 4 is all about and won’t be surprised by the emotional twists and turns, you can focus on all the incredible Easter eggs in Endgame, some of which haven’t been discovered in theaters. You have to be able to freeze the image on the screen to realize someone may have been abusing the time portal, for example. The same goes for a different Easter egg that’s nearly invisible even after you stop playback.
But as it turns out, there’s also a huge Doctor Strange continuity error in Endgame that we all missed before, but now it has been uncovered. We have to warn you, however, that you can’t unsee it once you know it’s there.

Apple invites press to September 10th event, confirming iPhone 11 launch date
Guess what, Apple fans… it’s official: the new iPhone 11 smartphone lineup will be unveiled on September 10th. Apple just sent invitations to reporters and bloggers for a press conference that will be held at its headquarters in Cupertino, California on Tuesday, September 10th. If that date sounds familiar it’s because BGR pegged it weeks ago as the date on which Apple would be unveiling its next-generation iPhone lineup. As soon as an executive from one of Apple’s carrier partners accidentally revealed that the iPhone 11 series will be released on September 20th, we knew that Apple would make the announcement on the 10th. Wednesday of that week would normally have been Apple’s go-to day for its big iPhone press conference, but that Wednesday happens to fall on September 11th this year.
Apple’s invitations for this year’s iPhone event will undoubtedly be analyzed and picked apart by hardcore Apple fans and bloggers, but the bottom line is that there really isn’t that much left to be revealed next month when Apple finally makes the iPhone 11 series official. Pretty much everything has leaked at this point, though the names of the new phones are still somewhat up in the air; multiple independent reports suggest that the phones will be called the iPhone 11, iPhone 11 Pro, and iPhone 11 Pro Max. The name of the new phablet might have been swiped from a protein bar, but it would be wise of Apple to designate its iPhone XR successor as the main “iPhone 11” model. After all, the iPhone XR was last year’s best-selling iPhone model and we fully expect its successor to be the most popular option in 2019 and throughout most of 2020.
