SpaceX’s Starhopper completed its first mini-launch ‘hop’

%name SpaceX’s Starhopper completed its first mini launch ‘hop’ by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

Between tests of its Crew Dragon spacecraft, regular launches for commercial clients, and the impending second launch of the massive Falcon Heavy rocket, SpaceX has a whole lot on its plate these days. Despite all that, it’s still working hard on its Starship program, which will (hopefully) one day result in a spacecraft capable of traveling throughout our solar system and maybe even to neighboring stars.

At present, the Starship itself doesn’t exist, but a small-scale version of it, called the Starhopper, does indeed exist, and it just completed a major milestone. The pint-sized spacecraft performed its first official “hop test,” firing its engines and lifting off its launch pad briefly as powerful tethers kept it from flying skyward.

Samsung is reportedly planning to launch four Galaxy Note 10 models in 2019

%name Samsung is reportedly planning to launch four Galaxy Note 10 models in 2019 by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

Several recent reports claimed that Samsung would be doing the unthinkable with this year’s Galaxy Note 10 series by launching a smaller, more affordable version alongside the regular next-gen big-screen Samsung smartphone flagship. This wouldn’t quite be a first for Samsung though, as the company did launch two distinct Note models a few years ago when it introduced the Note Edge display concept.

A new report from Korea now says that Samsung is ready to double down on that strategy, with plans to reveal up to four Galaxy Note 10 models in stores later this year. That’s something Samsung has never done before, and the Galaxy S10’s sales success is apparently the catalyst behind this decision.

Game of Thrones star Kit Harington hosted Saturday Night Live this weekend, so it should come as no surprise the show decided to have a little fun with the massive level of anticipation surrounding the final six episodes of HBO’s thrilling fantasy saga. In fact, one of the arguably best and most satisfying sketches of the night was the monologue, with Harington barely having time to step out in front of the audience and introduce himself before someone stood up and asked him how the show ends.

%name These incredible iPhone 11 rumors can only mean one thing, and it’s terrible for Android by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

Year after year, for nearly 12 years now, Apple has released new iPhone models jam-packed with features and hardware that routinely set new standards for performance across any number of categories. Citing just one example, Apple’s introduction of the 64-bit A7 a few years back was so out of the blue that it stunned Qualcomm and left the company scrambling to catch up.

“The 64-bit Apple chip hit us in the gut,” a Qualcomm employee said at the time. “Not just us, but everyone, really. We were slack-jawed, and stunned, and unprepared. It’s not that big a performance difference right now, since most current software won’t benefit. But in Spinal Tap terms it’s like, 32 more, and now everyone wants it.”
