Astronomers tout it as the best lensed quasar discovered to date, due to the foreground galaxy smearing the image of the background quasar into a bright arc, resulting in four images of the object.
The Shenzhen UFO Flying Saucer Technology company recently demonstrated its manned drone at a local event, and it looked out of this world to say the least, especially with all of the lights turned on. This eVTOL can allegedly take off and touch down on land or water.
