NASA Approves 2018 Mission to Mars
The InSight mission, which will study Mars deep interior, has been officially approved by NASA for a launch on May 5, 2018.
Approved by the agency's Science Mission Directorate this week, InSight — The Interior Exploration using Seismic Investigations, Geodesy and Heat Transport mission — originally had a March 2016 launch planned, but those plans were suspended in December because of a vacuum leak in the Seismic Experience for Interior Structure, the main instrument being used in the mission. SEIS needs "a perfect vacuum seal around its three main sensors in order to withstand harsh conditions."

Final Fantasy XV’s Story Takes Place Over 10 Years
Director Hajime Tabata has revealed that 10 years pass during Final Fantasy XV’s story.
Speaking to IGN at PAX West, Tabata revealed that the late-game, bearded Noctis seen in footage released at Gamescom is ten years older than when we see him at the beginning of the game saying goodbye to King Regis.
“In the opening sequence, you see Regis and Noctis talking to one another and Regis tells him to stand tall,” Tabata told IGN. “His appearance later on in the game communicates that he has
that to heart and lived with those final words.”

Spidey, Panther Suits Designed with Future Films in Mind
When Captain America: Civil War introduced Black Panther and Spider-Man into the Marvel Cinematic Universe, it didn't just offer new big screen depictions of T'Challa and Peter Parker -- it also gave audience-goers their first look at the MCU's take on Black Panther and Spider-Man's superhero suits. The first looks at Black Panther's sleek vibranium costume and Spider-Man's Tony Stark-gifted suit were highly anticipated, which is why it was a big group effort to make sure they were designed right.
Civil War costume designer Judianna Makovsky wasn't tasked with designing these two high profile outfits alone; in fact, Marvel came to her with some fully formed ideas of what the studio wanted the designs to look like. Not only did they have to work within the third Captain America movie, but they also needed to work for Spider-Man and Black Panther's upcoming standalone films.
CoD: Infinite Warfare Multiplayer Stresses Control, Choice
Infinite Warfare is introducing a vast set of new (or simply tweaked) systems for multiplayer designed to give you more control over how you play and how the firefight goes down – seemingly in honor of Call of Duty’s first foray into space. We played quite a few matches at Call of Duty XP this weekend, and two things stood out in particular: soldier classes and map design.
Infinite Warfare’s multiplayer seems really focused on how players usually want to play Call of Duty, and that results in a modular system of classes, loadouts, and weapon upgrades. It’s a lot to take in. The build we played didn’t have the weapon crafting system, though those upgrades are promised for the future, so putting a loadout together wasn’t too difficult this time around. It’s actually the same pick-10 system you’re probably used to, complete with a lot of the same weapon attachments and perks. I tried not to think about how weapon upgrades could overwhelm the process.
