Planet Discoveries Revisited: Hubble’s Universe Unfiltered
The field of extrasolar planets has exploded over the last couple decades, providing an entirely new suite of information on planetary systems in general and perspective on our own solar system in particular. One of the most exciting advances came when astronomers were at last able to see a few of these planets directly. Even those who maintain “I’ll believe it when I see it” now have visual proof that our solar system is not alone in the universe. However, science advances rapidly, and the discoveries announced only a few years ago are already ripe for an update. Revisiting three direct detections provides confirmation, archival data, and some spirited scientific discussion.
“Hubble’s Universe” is a recurring broadcast from HubbleSite, online home of the Hubble Space Telescope. Astrophysicist Frank Summers takes viewers on an in-depth tour of the latest Hubble discoveries.

In this video, I decided to do a commercial parody of the unreleased Apple iCar. Way better than any drop test or phone destruction video in my opinion, haha.

Razer Hammerhead Pro Unboxing & Overview
The Hammerhead Pro headset from Razer is for bass heads. There I said it. They look awesome and the build quality feels awseome, but if you’re looking for a reasonably balanced “reference” sound without doing some serious EQ tuning, these aren’t for you.
I mean, it’s right in the name: “Hammerhead”
