Sol's news feed: a copious condensation of current cognizance
Experts create invisibility cloak - Able to effectively bend microwaves around the invisibility cloak, this technology could be expanded to cloak objects from other forms of radiation with longer wavelengths, such as radar, and in the next 5-10 years perhaps shorter wavelengths like visible light.
Sony reveals PS3 online service and launch titles - If you are a Sony fanboy (or girl) this might interest you. For the rest of the human race that is taken aback by the asking price of the colossus, maybe not so much. I am holding off judgment, and holding onto my wallet, until this system shows some serious power, titles, and online service. The ball's in your court Sony.
Master Chief slays entire armies of Elites, but falls to Hollywood politics - In a quick turn of events, the movie adaptation of Halo recently had it's legs severed from beneath it as Fox and Universal pulled funding for the expensive flick. The blockbuster may still be saved if Microsoft and Bungee can find new funding. Peter Jackson of Lord of the Rings fame is executive producer, with the screenplay written by Alex Garland (The Beach; 28 Days Later).
The Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter begins it's mission - After entering Mars orbit last month, the MRO has begun sending back data along with amazing photographs of the Martian surface equivalent to the resolution you get looking out of a Boeing 747 at Earth.
