Nasa’s little Mars helicopter has flown its last flight. The space agency announced on Thursday that the 4-pound (1.8-kilogram) chopper named Ingenuity can no longer fly because of rotor blade damage. While it remains upright and in contact with flight controllers, its $85 million mission is officially over, officials said. Originally intended as a short-term tech demo, Ingenuity logged 72 flights over three years at Mars. It accumulated more than two hours of flight time, travelling 18km. That’s more than 14 times farther than planned, according to Nasa. It soared as high as 79 feet (24 metres) and hit speeds…

Location, location, location. That’s what real estate is all about. This time, it’s about reel estate. Rarely has location played such a pivotal role in a film. And this is exactly where the movies scores, despite a somewhat shoddy storyline (the revenge formula is really a bit tiresome at times). In a ploy harking back to British serials like Shetland, this is a clever manipulation to look inwards – in more senses than one. In Shetland, however, the island was never far from the mainland, and many a time characters were seen bridging the watery gap during cross-referencing through an…

Certain personality traits are associated with life satisfaction, and that association remains stable regardless of age, despite changes in social roles and responsibilities that people may experience throughout their adult lives, according to research published by the American Psychological Association. “Many studies have shown that people with certain personality profiles are more satisfied with their life than others. Yet, it had not been extensively studied whether this holds true across the lifespan. For example, extroverted — that is sociable, talkative — people might be particularly happy in young adulthood, when they typically are forming new social relationships,” said study co-author…

It’s quite ironic when Rahmanullah Gurbaz talks about hard work because everything looks so easy and simple when this young Afghan batsman hits the ball. Gurbaz was hitting the big ones for fun at the ICC Academy nets on Wednesday evening, less than 24 hours before his team’s (Dubai Capitals’) ILT20 match against Abu Dhabi Knight Riders. Blessed with sublime timing, Gurbaz reminds you of the peerless AB de Villiers every time he gets into position to play a shot. He also loves playing in the UAE for his national team as well as for the franchises in ILT20 and…
