The creator of "Yellowstone" has landed a deal with NBCUniversal valued at one billion dollars, a staggering payday for a man who writes every script himself and has never won an Emmy. Taylor Sheridan, the 56-year-old Texan behind the most-watched cable drama of the last decade, is leaving Paramount for NBCUniversal in a deal that cements him as one of the most commercially powerful figures in television. He got there without a writers' room, without courting awards voters, and without playing the Hollywood access game that most showrunners treat as a second career. Page Six profiled Sheridan's rise, working methods, and blunt personality in detail, and the picture that emerges is a man who built his empire the way a rancher builds a…Open

A small, leggy figure that appeared in a NASA rover photo on Mars and then vanished from subsequent frames has fueled a fresh round of online speculation about what, exactly, the Curiosity rover keeps finding on the Red Planet. The image dates back to August 20, 2023, when NASA's Curiosity rover snapped several photos of the Martian surface around 6:27 p.m. ET. In one panoramic shot, a small object sits in the left corner of the frame, something that appears to have a body with two small legs , set against a dusty landscape of rocky hills. Photos taken less than a minute earlier show no trace of it. No other images captured that day recorded the figure. And NASA has offered no public explanation for the anomaly. An image three years old…Open
A Chinese robotics company says its new humanoid prototype hit 28.3 mph on a test track, a speed that would top Usain Bolt's world record, though the claim remains unverified and the firm's robots have already injured people.

A Chinese robotics company says its new humanoid prototype hit 28.3 mph on a test track, a speed that would top Usain Bolt's world record, though the claim remains unverified and the firm's robots have already injured people. Hangzhou-based Unitree posted video to X showing a bipedal machine it calls "Superman" sprinting along a track at what the company says was 12.66 metres per second. If accurate, that figure edges past the 12.42 m/s mark Bolt set at the 2009 World Athletics Championship, a record no human has touched since. The robot also jumped roughly two metres straight up from a standing position, clearing the 1.7-metre standing vertical record held by American Christopher Spell since 2021. Unitree packaged the demonstration as a…Open

President Trump is talking tough on Iran — but his critics say it’s evidence of frustration rather than strength almost six months on from the start of the conflict. On Tuesday, Trump sought to evince a confidence that the U.S. has the upper hand. He implied Tehran will bend to his will in the end and that oil prices and global commerce won’t be overly affected in the interim.
