In a surprise move just hours after Apple's new product event, the FBI decided Monday night to postpone the court hearing scheduled for Tuesday.

The iPad Pro saw a new device added to it family today. During Apple's event over in California the company unveiled to the world a smaller iPad Pro. Sizing up at 9.7 inches compared to the original iPad Pro's 12.9-inch screen, the device offers up pro features to those who prefer a smaller form factor for their iOS tablets. But the screen-size is a familiar one for anyone who's used an iPad before.

Talk about a big bang. In the animation above, you can see a star exploding. Though the animation is an artist's interpretation of the event, it is based on real data collected by NASA's Kepler telescope, which has been scanning wide swaths of the sky looking for rare events like this one.

Measuring the activity of the brain can tell researchers a lot about how a healthy brain functions, as well as when the functioning is disrupted, whether by psychiatric disorders like depression or schizophrenia, or neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's or Parkinson's. The tools that scientists use to measure and track that brain activity, such as fMRI and EEG, are already quite sophisticated. But more precise tools that take different kinds of measurements could help researchers learn new information about the brain.

X almost marks the spot. The USS Hartford's aim was just a little off, and as the nuclear attack submarine surfaced through the ice of the Arctic circle, the view from the aircraft overhead shows a giant X carved into snow just to the side of the vehicle. The Arctic is fortunately an empty place, and precision surfacing isn't really the point of the vehicle. Instead, it was there as part of the ICEX military exercises, practice for the coldest war of all.

October 1, 2020 is an unusual start date for a history of aviation. Many begin in 1903 with the Wright Brothers at Kitty Hawk, or at the human-carrying balloons of the 18th century. The classically inclined may even start with Icarus, the hubristic and tragic character from Greek Mythology. In The Big Book of X-Bombers and X-Fighters, out today, Steve Pace starts instead with the Bell Aircraft Corporation's P-59 Airacomet, the first jet airplane built and flown in the United States.

Last year, researchers announced that they had discovered a new method to read a library of ancient texts that was nearly obliterated when Vesuvius erupted in 79 AD, sealing Pompeii and the neighboring town of Herculaneum in a prison of ash.

The new Apple TV is about to get a lot easier to manage and use.

Apple has shrunk the size of its iPad Pro to pull in customers who prefer the original iPad dimensions, but everything else on board is bigger, better, and more powerful.

Apple unveiled the iPhone SE at their "Let Us Loop You In" event today in California. The latest iOS smartphone from Apple breaks tradition with the company's practice of only introducing new phones in the fall. But Cupertino isn't letting tradition get in the way of announcing their latest offering: a 4-inch, 2016 device. It will cost $399 for a 16 GB model, and starts at $17 per month on a payment plan.

If you're like 80 percent of American workers, you're spending most of your day sitting. That comes with a slew of health problems, such as kidney disease, obesity, and reduced life expectancy.

Apple used the opportunity of their hotly-covered product launch event today in Cupertino to deliver a choice message to the FBI, in regards to the pending San Bernardino case.

People with diabetes prick their fingers multiple times a day to check their blood glucose levels, and dose themselves daily with injections of insulin. This monitoring is crucial, as rises in sugar levels in the blood can, over time, increase a diabetic patient's risks of developing long-term complications from the disease. But this pricking and injecting can also be painful and tedious, making it harder for people to follow their doctor's orders.

When it's finished being built, the European Extremely Large Telescope will be the world's largest optical telescope. The bad news is, it won't see the light of day (or stars, rather) until 2024 or later. But the good news is that you can build your own right now.

With Apple's biannual March event and pending court hearing, the half-trillion dollar company is poised to dominate the gadget news cycle this week.
