Get motivated by your Bitmoji with new Fitbit watch face

Fitbit and Snap have teamed up to create a fun new watch face for the Fitbit Versa and Ionic. There’s now a new Bitmoji clock face that updates throughout the day to reflect what you’re doing or motivate you to get moving. There are over 50 variations of your Bitmojis that respond to activities you’ve done or help motivate you to “create healthy habits.” Some of these include waving hello to start your day, dancing with your alarm clock, being on a treadmill after a great run, meditating when you are, and sleep walking when it’s time to go to sleep.

Disney is working with the ‘Chef’s Table’ team to produce non-fiction shows for Disney+

In case you were wondering what else we could expect from Disney’s streaming service, it won’t all be limited to Disney properties. The company signed a two-year deal with the Supper Club, the creators of Chef’s Table, for non-fiction content—and no, it won’t be limited to food-related shows. One of the titles the Supper Club is working on is called Marvel 616 (a working title). It’s an anthology documentary show that ties Marvel’s comic book universe and its creators to their historical and cultural contexts. Another is Earthkeepers (also a working title). This documentary series focuses on conservationists and the animals they’re trying to protect and preserve. We don’t have a premiere date yet for either shows, but it is something to look forward to once the service launches.

So, this is what a black hole looks like

After a decade long attempt, it’s finally happened. We now have the first real image of a black hole. It’s not as majestic as the one in Interstellar but it’s still an impressive feat nonetheless. The snapshot was taken of a supermassive black hole in the Messier 87 galaxy, which is around 55 million light years away. It’s a massive one indeed as its mass is 6.5 billion times that of our Sun. What was captured was the “shadow” created as the event horizon bends and sucks in light.

To get the image, it took eight existing high-altitude telescopes to reach an angular resolution that’s enough to capture what’s considered a relatively compact object (at “just” 24.9 billion miles across) at an extreme distance. There was a need to synchronize atomic clocks and use supercomputers to combine petabytes of raw data from the telescopes. In the future, we’re expected to see and learn more with the Event Horizon Telescope adding the Greenland Telescope, IRAM NOEMA Observatory, and Kitt Peak Telescopes joining the array.
