From VAR to VR: How High-Tech is Revolutionizing the 2025 Champions League

From VAR to VR: How High-Tech is Revolutionizing the 2025 Champions League

Officiating Tech: VAR, Offside AI and More When it comes to refereeing, the Champions League is more high-tech than ever. VAR (Video Assistant Referee) was first introduced to the competition in 2019 and has since become a fixture of every match Uefa. VAR focuses only on game-changing situations (goals, penalties, direct reds, mistaken identity) and steps in for “clear and obvious” errors Refrsports.

Mysterious Comet SWAN R2: New Interstellar Visitor or Oort Cloud Wanderer?

Mysterious Comet SWAN R2: New Interstellar Visitor or Oort Cloud Wanderer?

Discovery of Comet C/2025 R2 (SWAN) Comet C/2025 R2 (SWAN) was spotted in early September 2025 in a rather unconventional way – by searching for faint glows in SOHO satellite images. The SOHO spacecraft’s SWAN instrument scans the entire sky in ultraviolet light, primarily to track solar wind interaction with hydrogen. Astrophotographers and amateur astronomers often comb through these SWAN images for telltale moving smudges that betray new comets. On 11 September 2025, Ukrainian amateur Vladimir Bezugly noticed such a moving fuzzball in SWAN’s data Universetoday. Within hours it was confirmed by others and reported, earning the provisional label “SWAN25B”

Mining the Moon’s Helium-3: The Key to a Quantum Computing and Energy Revolution

Mining the Moon’s Helium-3: The Key to a Quantum Computing and Energy Revolution

What Is Helium-3 and Why Is It So Important? Infographic: Helium-3 is continually generated by fusion reactions in the Sun and carried by the solar wind. The Moon, lacking a magnetic field, has absorbed this isotope for billions of years, whereas Earth’s magnetic field shields us from most Helium-3 interlune.space. Helium-3 (He-3) is a lightweight, non-radioactive isotope of helium with two protons and one neutron (regular helium-4 has two neutrons). On Earth it is extremely scarce – mostly a byproduct from the decay of tritium in nuclear weapons and reactors sciencefocus.com. In total, only a few dozen kilograms are produced

Nintendo Resurrects Its Biggest Flop: Virtual Boy Games Headed to Switch Online in 3D Glory

Nintendo Resurrects Its Biggest Flop: Virtual Boy Games Headed to Switch Online in 3D Glory

The Virtual Boy: A Bold 3D Experiment That Became Nintendo’s Biggest Flop To appreciate why a Virtual Boy comeback is so surprising, it’s important to understand the history of the original 1995 Virtual Boy system – a history marked by ambition, innovation, and rapid failure. The Virtual Boy was conceived by famed Nintendo engineer Gunpei Yokoi (creator of the Game Boy) as an affordable foray into stereoscopic 3D gaming. Codenamed “VR32” during development, it was meant to “totally immerse players into their own private universe,” according to Nintendo’s early promises en.wikipedia.org.
