Space groups like NASA and the ESA track a huge number of near-Earth objects on a daily basis, and many of them have a chance to make life miserable if they one day end up on a collision course with Earth. These “potentially hazardous” asteroids regularly pass Earth without issue, and the same will most likely be true on September 9th, 2019.

That’s when the rock known as 2006 QV89, an asteroid measuring just over 160 feet wide, is set to make its closest approach to Earth in some time. Astronomers tracking the object believe it’ll only get as close as four million miles, but the ESA says there’s a very tiny chance it could end up here on Earth.

In a shocking turn of events, Google shared the first image of its next smartphone on Wednesday, confirming many of the leaks that have been spreading around the internet over the last few weeks. If Google sticks to the same release schedule it had for the Pixel 3, then the Pixel 4 won’t officially launch until October, which makes this an incredibly early reveal. But there’s no denying that it will get people talking.

Leak suggests the iPhone 11 will add a Pixel-like Night Sight feature

%name Leak suggests the iPhone 11 will add a Pixel like Night Sight feature by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

While Apple remains the most popular smartphone brand in the United States, the iPhone has been surpassed on multiple fronts by other smartphone makers. One such example is the NIght Sight feature of Google’s Pixel phones, but if a new report is true, Apple could catch up with Google before the end of the year.

According to XDA writer Max Weinbach, who leaked the following information to EverythingApplePro on YouTube, the 2019 iPhone models will have a “dedicated night mode” for taking photos in suboptimal environments. Weinbach also claims that this will be better than similar features from Google, Huawei, or Samsung.

%name Pixel 4 is about to get an awesome new feature that the iPhone already has by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

The Pixel 4 isn’t due to be released for several months, but Google’s upcoming flagship has been popping up in more and more leaks and rumors. We just saw Pixel 4 renders based on leaked design files as well as a leaked mold that seems to confirm the new Google phone will have a design similar to the iPhone 11, at least when it comes to the giant camera module on the back. Separately, a couple of reports told us the Pixel 4 will pack an exciting new feature that’s not available on any phone, not even the iPhone, and that’s a chip that uses radar waves to interpret hand gestures. Now we have another rumor that says Google is trying to bring an iconic iPhone feature to the Pixel 4, and perhaps to all new Android phones as well.

Astronomers warn of solar ‘superflare’ that could hit Earth

%name Astronomers warn of solar ‘superflare’ that could hit Earth by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

Like all life on Earth, we owe a lot to the Sun. Without it, we wouldn’t be here, but it also has the power to make things pretty rough on us if it begins to act out. Solar flares — energetic outbursts which are often paired with mass ejections that fling charged particles out into space — are one of the things we have to watch out for.

Scientists have a relatively solid understanding of solar flares, and the ones we’ve seen from our own star have been pretty mild. But a new research paper warns that a massive “superflare” could be inevitable, and if it hits Earth we might be in serious trouble.
