He hasn’t even made it to Mars yet, and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk’s wandering eye is already on a new planet — this one completely outside our star system.
Over the weekend, Musk seemed to ideate on the prospect of visiting the relatively nearby Promixa Centauri B, an exoplanet that sits a little over four light-years away in Alpha Centauri, the star system that James Cameron’s “Avatar” franchise is based on. First discovered back in 2016, Proxima B is believed to be particularly viable as a potentially life-supporting world, and it looks like Musk is paying attention.
“Practically next door,” the Twitter owner tweeted on Sunday, in response to a tweet featuring a Space Academy blog post about the tantalizing planet.

Engineers at MIT say they have developed a new motor that could be used to electrify large aircraft, significantly reducing their carbon footprint with the help of innovative new electric propulsion technology.
The 1-megawatt motor has already undergone design and testing of its primary components, which the MIT team says helps demonstrate that its power generation is comparable to current small aircraft engines.
Every year, pollution from carbon dioxide in excess of 850 million tons is produced by the aviation industry. If left unmitigated, those levels could increase by as much as three times by mid-century, concerns that have prompted caps on the carbon dioxide emissions of international flights that have been instituted in recent years.
The June 12 launch of the Transporter-8 rideshare mission marked a significant milestone for SpaceX’s Falcon 9 rocket, and the company captured it on video.
Kairan Quazi announced the news in an impressive LinkedIn post, during which he explained how he’d begun his software engineering career at an early age.
While he kept post pretty professional, Quazi couldn’t help but gush about working for the ‘coolest company on the planet’.
Kairan Quazi is only in his teens, but has already graduated with a computer science degree before accepting a job with SpaceX.

Sphere Studios has developed a brand new type of cinema camera called The Big Sky. It features a single 316-megapixel HDR image sensor that the company says is a 40x resolution increase over existing 4K cameras and PetaPixel was given an exclusive look at the incredible technology.
The Big Sky cameras are not up for sale (yet) but they are meeting with film companies and filmmakers to find ways to bring the technology to the home-entertainment world. A discussion we had on-site revolved around gimbals mounted on helicopters, airplanes, and automobiles and how those systems, even “the best” still experience some jitter/vibration which is often stabilized which causes the footage to be cropped in.
