We've seen some astonishing photos of an Earthset — the Earth setting behind the Moon — from the Artemis II crew's history-making trip around our planet's closest neighbor. Now, Reid Wiseman, the mission's commander, has shared a remarkable video of that same phenomenon.
While mission specialist Christina Koch was using a Nikon camera to snap stunning still images of the Earthset, Wiseman used an iPhone 17 Pro Max to film the moment. "I could barely see the Moon through the docking hatch window but the iPhone was the perfect size to catch the view… This is uncropped, uncut with 8x zoom which is quite comparable to the view of the human eye," he wrote on X.
Like watching sunset at the beach from the most foreign seat in the cosmos, I couldn't resist a cell phone video of Earthset. You can hear the shutter on the Nikon as @Astro_Christina is hammering away on 3-shot brackets and capturing those… pic.twitter.com/8aWnaFJ69c

Sony is adopting new age verification policies for PlayStation users in the UK and Ireland. The company isn't making this a blanket requirement, but steps to confirm age will be needed to access "communication, broadcasting, and certain in-game features" beginning in June 2026. That includes essentials for online and social gamers, such as joining a party, voice chatting, text messaging or using third-party chat programs such as Discord. Some in-game communication tools, like chats or sharing user-generated content, will also only be available after an age check is completed. Although the new requirements will not be enforced until summer, users are already being prompted to get the verification process squared away.
Several states and countries began adopting this type of legislation in 2025, pushing restrictions as a way to protect children and teens from inappropriate content. It seems the trend will be continuing into this year, despite the concerns about privacy risks and new questions about whether these restrictive laws are even effective at their stated goals, but companies have still been moving to comply.

Let's start with the coolest thing about this cable: it's retractable. That's right. It's tiny and compact when you aren't using it, then stretches out to a maximum length of 6.6 feet. Or you can use it at one of its many preset lengths: 1.9 feet, 3.1 feet, 4.1 feet, 4.9 feet, 5.7 feet, and 6.2 feet. Just tug on it when you're done and it rolls back onto itself.
It's fast, too, providing up to 100W of power. With a proper 100W charging block, you can fast-charge your phone, tablet, laptop, earbuds, or whatever else in mere minutes rather than hours. That makes it perfectly versatile for so many device types and it'll serve you well for many years to come.
What's not to love about this nifty little accessory? Grab this retractable 100W Baseus USB-C cable for $15.19 before this deal goes away! This is, by the way, the cheapest price it's ever been. Nice!
