Elon Musk Sets Poop Emoji , as Autoreply to Reporters.

Gizmodo reports that Twitter CEO Elon Musk made the announcement via a tweet on March 19.

When Gizmodo reached out to press@twitter.com for a comment, they received a poop emoji in return.

Amid Musk's mass layoffs since acquiring the company in October, Twitter's communications team was let go.

The move is in line with policies at his other companies, Tesla and SpaceX, which don't make a habit of responding to the press.

Musk has a history of disdain for the media.

In February, Musk said Twitter would take legal action against a disgruntled ex-employee who was a source for a Platformer article.

In December, Musk referred to a Reuters article alleging that Twitter had taken down suicide prevention information as "fake news.".

According to CBS News, Musk has also accused reporters of bias against Tesla and being in cahoots with the company's rivals

Astronomers Say Neutron Jet Emissions Travel at Relativistic Speeds [Video]

Astronomers Say Neutron Jet Emissions Travel at Relativistic Speeds

Astronomers Say , Neutron Jet Emissions , Travel at Relativistic Speeds. Gizmodo reports that new research suggests that the dense remains of massive stars propel jets of gas and dust at speeds of hundreds of millions of miles per hour. Neutron stars are the stellar remains of some of the densest objects in the universe. . According to new research, neutron star jets can travel up to 70,836 miles per hour, just over one-third the speed of light. . Relativistic effects like time dilation and length contraction are believed to occur at speeds exceeding just one-tenth the speed of light. . James Miller Jones, , an astrophysicist at Curtin University in Australia and co-author of the research, . notes that neutron stars are, "so dense that they can pull material off the surface of a nearby companion star.". That gas spirals down onto the surface of that neutron star where it gets very, very hot and dense. Once enough of it builds up nuclear fusion reactions start to happen on the surface, James Miller Jones, astrophysicist at Curtin University in Australia and co-author, via 'Gizmodo'. Using the Australia Telescope Compact Array and the International Gamma-Ray Astrophysics Laboratory, researchers found that thermonuclear explosions on distant stars kickstart these high-speed jet emissions. . When these explosions occurred, they generated high-speed jets and bright X-rays which made it possible for researchers to measure speeds. . The findings suggest that the staggering speed of these emissions is close to escape speed, or the needed velocity for material to escape the neutron star's gravitational speed. . Gizmodo reports that the team's results will inform future models of jet formation and could help reveal some of the most extreme physics in the universe.

AT&T Confirms Data Breach Affected 73 Million Customers

AT&T Confirms Data Breach , Affected 73 Million Customers. 73 million current and former AT&T customers have had their sensitive data compromised in a hack that some outlets say dates back to 2021, Gizmodo reports. The data, which includes social security numbers, email addresses, birthdates, phone numbers and AT&T account information, . was located two weeks ago in a data set released on the dark web. It's not clear if it was AT&T's systems that were breached or if the information was stolen from one of the company's vendors. Currently, AT&T does not have evidence of unauthorized access to its systems resulting in exfiltration of the data set, AT&T, via statement. The company is communicating proactively with those impacted and will be offering credit monitoring at our expense where applicable, AT&T, via statement. As a precaution, AT&T has reset the passcodes of its current customers. . The company will be reaching out to customers whose information has been compromised. . AT&T advises those who are worried about their accounts to monitor activity and credit reports.

The Reason Why Insects Are Attracted to Artificial Light [Video]

The Reason Why Insects Are Attracted to Artificial Light

The Reason Why, Insects Are Attracted , to Artificial Light. Gizmodo reports that researchers believe they finally know why insects seem to be drawn to lights. New data suggests that bugs are not attracted to the light, as is commonly believed. Rather, researchers now believe that based on insects' use of light sources to orient flight, artificial lights disorient bugs. The team's findings were published in the journal 'Nature Communications.'. This has been a prehistorical question. In the earliest writings, people were noticing this around fire. , Jamie Theobald, Biologist at Florida International University and co-author of the study, via Gizmodo. It turns out all our speculations about why it happens have been wrong, Jamie Theobald, Biologist at Florida International University and co-author of the study, via Gizmodo. Researchers note that insects' "seemingly erratic" flying patterns are really their failed attempts to understand the artificial light. . Rather than steering toward the light, bugs were seen turning their dorsum, or their backs, toward the light, attempting to steer by it. Under natural sky light, tilting the dorsum towards the brightest visual hemisphere helps maintain proper flight attitude and control, Study authors, via Gizmodo. Near artificial sources, however, this highly conserved dorsal-light-response can produce continuous steering around the light and trap an insect, Study authors, via Gizmodo

SpaceX's Third Test of Its Starship Succeeds Ahead of Crewed Lunar Mission

SpaceX's Third Test of Its , Starship Succeeds Ahead, of Crewed Lunar Mission. 'The Independent' reports that SpaceX's third test of its Starship has ended successfully, with the spacecraft falling to Earth somewhere in the Indian ocean. . The successful test follows two failed tests which lasted only a few moments before ultimately exploding. The third test saw the Starship successfully launch, separate from its booster, arrive in space, open its payload door and then fly halfway around the Earth. This means that the test successfully accomplished all of the major tests SpaceX had laid out prior to launch. Starship is the largest and most powerful rocket ever built, with a towering height of 397 feet. . CEO Elon Musk said prior to launch that the company had made thousands of upgrades and fixes to improve the chances of a successful test.

The test flight outperformed previous tests, reaching an altitude of 100 miles and nearing orbital speed. 'The Independent' reports that NASA is heavily invested in the success of Starship, as the spacecraft plays an integral role in the agency's plan to return astronauts to the moon. The highly anticipated missions will mark the first crewed missions to the moon since last century's Apollo program.
