WASHINGTON, DC – U.S. Rep. Harold “Hal” Rogers (KY-05) secured a $7.54 million Community Project Funding earmark for the Morehead State University (MSU) Space Science Center. The federal funding will provide payload operations for government and commercial space stations, allowing students to continue aerospace education and engineering in partnership with NASA and private space science companies. “Students at Morehead State University not only have a front row seat to NASA’s lunar missions and deep space pioneering, but they also get to participate in these missions through coding and engineering, as a result of key investments like this Community Project Funding,” said Congressman Rogers, a cardinal member of the House Appropriations Committee. “MSU launched this flagship mission more th...

Image: Grasshopper ManufactureGrasshopper Manufacture, the developer known for the No More Heroes series, launches its new game Romeo Is A Dead Man on multiple platforms today, but this doesn't include Nintendo's systems. If you have been wondering about the chances of this new title getting a Switch release, we've got another update. During a special five-minute 'Grasshopper Direct' broadcast earlier on, company CEO Goichi Suda (aka Suda51) reiterated how the team is doing what it can to make a "Switch 2 version" happen. "We're doing what we can to make it happen, so again, please give us a little more time." This actually follows a comment Suda51 made last December, mentioning how the team wanted to bring the game to the Switch 2 but needed to make sure Unreal Engine 5 was "going to pl...

The new HD-2D title The Adventures of Elliot: The Millennium Tales locked in a June release last week, and alongside this news, the team has also revealed multiple save data bonuses if you own certain other Square Enix titles. As long as you've got existing save data (or for certain platforms, purchase history on the same player account), you should be able to unlock these bonuses. It's noted how demo save data for titles "may also fulfill the bonus eligibility requirements". The save data eligible includes saves from Octopath Traveler 0, Dragon Quest I & II HD-2D Remake, Bravely Default: Flying Fairy HD Remaster, Various Daylife and TRIANGLE STRATEGY. Here's the full rundown from Square Enix's official website: OCTOPATH TRAVELER 0 "Sword magicite "Guidance of the Sacred Flame" - Incr...

While this doesn’t feel like much substance alone, Giant Bomb’s Jeff Grubb – one of the first people to mention this spin-off’s existence – also had an interesting reaction when discussing the project. Speaking on his daily Game Mess Mornings show, guest Lex Luddy asked him if he thinks “the God of War thing will finally show up”. With a wry smile, Grubb responded: “Who could say? I certainly could not.” So, there’s not much to go on here really beyond a bunch of teasing and assertions, but stranger things have happened. Shadow drops do tend to get decent momentum, and we daresay a side-scrolling God of War game would attract a lot of interest. What’s going to be particularly fascinating about this one is which platforms it’s on. PS5 is a lock, of course, but could Sony also explore the S...

Tuesday, Feb 10, 2026 • Brian Lopez : Contact UTA's Smart Agriculture Research Center grand opening. (UTA Photo) In the last year, highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI), commonly known as bird flu, swept through chicken coops across the nation, killing egg-laying hens and contributing to rising egg prices. The outbreaks underscored how vulnerable food systems can be to rapidly spreading biological threats and how urgently new predictive tools are needed to help producers respond. That’s why the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Agricultural Research Service (USDA-ARS) partnered with The University of Texas at Arlington to deve...

Nancy Guthrie, the 84-year-old mother of “Today” host Savannah Guthrie, went missing Jan. 31 from her Arizona home in a disappearance case that’s captured significant national attention. Folks at the FBI say they don’t have any suspects in her potential abduction, but video and still images from a Nest surveillance camera released on Tuesday show a masked figure at Guthrie’s door that morning. The new images have led to something that happens in virtually every high profile criminal case these days: Social media users are running the images through generative artificial intelligence tools like xAI’s Grok, trying to get a proper looking picture of the suspect without his mask. But that’s just not how AI works. Better than nothing? Matt Wallace, a popular distributor of misinformation on X...

Grasshopper Manufacture has just released ROMEO IS A DEAD MAN on PC. Powered by Unreal Engine 5, it’s time now to benchmark it and examine its performance on PC. For our benchmarks, I used an AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D, 32GB of DDR5 at 6000Mhz, AMD’s Radeon RX 6900XT, RX 7900XTX, RX 9070XT, as well as NVIDIA’s RTX 2080Ti, RTX 3080, RTX 4090, RTX 5080, and RTX 5090. I also used Windows 10 64-bit, the GeForce 591.86, and the Radeon Adrenalin Edition 26.1.1 drivers. Grasshopper Manufacture has added a few graphics settings to tweak. PC gamers can adjust the quality of Textures, Global Illumination, Foliage, Shadows, and more. The game also has support for AMD FSR 3.0, NVIDIA DLSS 4, and Intel XeSS 2.0. However, the in-game settings are completely broken. Let me explain what I mean. For some strange...
