![MoonBot, a modular and reconfigurable robotic system, demonstrates a capacity for scalable lunar base construction through adaptable configurations - ranging from a minimal unit composed of a limb and wheel ([latex]1\times\times Limb + 1\times\times Wheel[/latex]) to a more capable “Dragon” configuration formed by serially connected minimal units - enabling tasks such as terrain preparation, heavy equipment transport exceeding 30 kg, and the precise deployment of inflatable structures with integrated stabilization.](https://arxiv.org/html/2512.21853v1/x2.png)
Researchers have developed and field-tested MoonBot, a reconfigurable robotic system designed to autonomously construct habitats and infrastructure on the lunar surface.

According to an interview on the Happy Sad Confused podcast with Josh Horowitz, Ryan Coogler finished the script for Wakanda Forever and sent it to Chadwick Boseman before he passed away. Unfortunately, Boseman was too ill to read it and his condition meant he wouldn’t be able to.

I’ve been glad to see Westerns become popular again recently, especially with the success of Taylor Sheridan’s Yellowstone and its related shows, which have paved the way for new series in the genre. Over the years, Westerns have delivered some fantastic surprises, like the unlikely partnership between Blondie and Tuco in The Good, the Bad and the Ugly, the shocking coffee poisoning in The Hateful Eight, and a surprising twist in a Western released in 2021.

The cast of Sinners includes Hailee Steinfeld, Wunmi Mosaku, Miles Caton, Jack O’Connell, Delroy Lindo, Li Jun Li, Jayme Lawson, and Omar Miller. Written and directed by Ryan Coogler, Sinners has been a major success, earning widespread praise from critics. Remarkably, the R-rated horror film has taken in almost $368 million globally – a huge accomplishment for an original movie.

Stern Drew, the esteemed founder and CEO of Stageyo-a digital marketplace for the theatrically inclined-has deigned to grace us with his insights on this matter. In a missive posted upon the platform X, he declares with no small measure of sarcasm that those who dismiss the idea of XRP reaching $10,000 are but victims of their own limited understanding. Their projections, he insists, are built upon flawed frameworks and mathematical models unsuited to the task. 🤔

Fans are speculating about the battle system in the next Pokémon games. A Reddit user named YourDadThinksImCool_ believes the upcoming games, likely Generation 10, will feature action-based combat, moving away from the traditional turn-based system. They point to a YouTube video by Turtlebro, showcasing early builds of Legends: Z-A, as evidence suggesting turn-based battles might not be included in future core series Pokémon games.

Nintendo recently concluded a 15-year legal battle, winning a lawsuit worth $8.2 million. The case, against the well-known video game company, has finally been resolved.

If the new Star Trek series, Starfleet Academy, doesn’t deliver on its potential, it will have been a disappointing investment after nearly three decades of build-up. The show’s already included a character from Star Trek: Voyager, suggesting it aims to honor the original series. While there are several paths the show could take, one idea – involving a holographic projection – is particularly promising.

This game mode is constantly being updated and changed, offering a different experience than standard modes like Trophy Road and Ranked. Everything from available troops and special modifiers to character traits and core gameplay is regularly tweaked with each new update. Because it’s so dynamic, it’s important to stay informed about the monthly seasonal changes.
