We got to share in a rare moment of collective awe this week as four astronauts blasted off toward the moon, beginning a 10-day journey that will take them farther from Earth than any humans have traveled in the last 50 years. It'll still be a little while before they reach their destination — the Orion spacecraft is expected to loop around the moon on Monday — but they've already seen some pretty incredible stuff on the way there. Here's the latest on the Artemis II mission, and other interesting science stories from this week.
Artemis II crosses the halfway pointAfter years of planning, NASA astronauts Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover and Christina Koch, along with Canadian Space Agency (CSA) astronaut Jeremy Hansen, are finally on their way to the moon for the Artemis II mission. This test flight is a crucial step in NASA's plans to send humans to the surface of the moon again for the first time since Apollo 17, and the high-stakes launch went off without a hitch on Wednesday.
The Artemis II crew is now more than halfway to the moon, according to NASA. When Orion reaches the moon on April 6, the astronauts will have a six-hour window of opportunity to observe the partially lit lunar far side, which can't be seen from Earth. If you're curious about where exactly the astronauts are at any given moment, you can track the mission by visiting NASA's Artemis Real-Time Orbit website. And, if you just want to see what space looks like from Orion, here's a

A good monitor arm is one of the best home office upgrades you can make, and gas spring monitor arms offer easier and smoother adjustments than coil spring monitor arms. This one has a central pole plus a gas spring arm on either side, so tiny adjustments will be darn easy to make and you'll be able to position your displays exactly where you need them (with one centered in front of you).
This triple-monitor arm fits monitors between 17 to 32 inches and can hold monitors weighing between 4.4 to 17.6 pounds. Most modern monitors fall into those ranges, so nothing to worry about there. The arms are also compatible with both VESA 75×75 and 100×100 mounts, which are pretty standard for most VESA-compatible monitors. The arm itself can mount to your desk via C-clamp or grommet.
It ain't cheap, but it's certainly a deal with this discount—and there's no better way to run a triple-monitor setup than with a triple-monitor arm. Get this Huanuo triple monitor arm for $119.98 while you can!

Navigation: NVIDIA-powered AstroVision™
Most robots rely on simple LiDAR or front cameras for navigation. The Aqua10 Ultra Roller upgrades this with AstroVision™ obstacle intelligence, combining dual HD AI cameras with NVIDIA Isaac Sim training. The cameras capture depth to form 3D maps with 1mm precision, and reinforcement learning helps the robot recognize and adapt to dynamic environments.
In practice, this translates into fewer collisions and smoother routing around furniture. Dreame highlights support for 240 object categories, with features like Active Pet Avoidance and Chaos-Proof Routing—ideal in homes where toys, pet bowls, and clutter shift constantly.
The Dreame Aqua10 Ultra Roller MSRP is $1,599.99. From October 13 to October 31, U.S. and Canadian consumers can get an extra 5% off with code DMPWAQUANA on Amazon and the Dreame website.
