The photographs, captured in 2018, 2019 and 2020, provide a glimpse of Saturn’s northern hemisphere transitioning from summer to fall. Just like Earth, Saturn experiences seasons because it is tilted relative to the plane of its orbit around the sun. This means that for half of Saturn’s orbit, one hemisphere is tilted further toward the sun receiving more radiation, while the other is tilted away, receiving less. Because Saturn is much further from the sun than our planet, it takes around 29 Earth years for the gas giant to orbit the star, meaning its seasons are far longer than ours....

The starry night harlequin toad has been lost to science since 1991. However, a collaboration between Colombian non-profit Fundación Atelopus and the Arhuaco indigenous group has managed to capture photographic evidence of the toad in Colombia’s Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta—the world’s highest coastal mountain range.

Last week, for instance, the board of Walt Disney Co. trotted out its miracle cure for the problem of Michael Eisner. Instead of firing Eisner or publicly rebuking him or (God forbid) reducing his pay and perks, the board changed his job. Henceforth, he’ll be just the CEO. Former Sen. George Mitchell, previously the “lead director,” became chairman. That puts him in charge of running the board and setting long-term strategy, jobs for which he has no experience and no visible qualifications....

SpongeBob SquarePants: Battle for Bikini Bottom - Rehydrated features a complete graphical overhaul from the first game, and this is what the game does best.

This remaster brings the game to life in true SpongeBob fashion, with light-hearted touches, an overall warm feeling, and a tendency for the absurd....

But a spoof video making the rounds on Sunday is trying to convince people that the government-controlled media in North Korea is telling people that their national team made the World Cup final.

Spurs had to be patient before Richarlison’s late brace secured a 2-0 win over Marseille in London.

Spanish third division defender Daniel Nadales showed a completely new way of defending corners, as he climbed up the goalpost.
