Nintendo Switch OLED Spotlight: Rebel Galaxy Outlaw

When the Nintendo Switch OLED was first announced way back in 2021, I wrote a piece calling it a messy cash grab. Then, a number of months later — I bought one for myself as a Christmas present. I like the Switch in general as a platform, but even after all this time with the OLED in my hou...

The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 Is Apparently Getting a Redesign

In a bunch of my earlier posts, I’ve chatted about all sorts of stuff about Samsung. You can find the links to those down below. But today, let’s dig into some juicy gossip about the new Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6. Yep, we’re spilling the beans in this post! Foldable smartphones ha...

Galaxy Book 3 Ultra — long term review

I picked up the Book 3 Ultra in April of 2023. I knew of its existence, but it wasn’t until I tried it, in a retail store, that I appreciated just how good it was. As I stood operating the display model, in the presence of a Samsung expert, it dawned on me that it was possible to experience...

A Long Hike with my Galaxy Watch

The distance of the hike was rather long — 22km. Since I wasn’t the “trail keeper,” I decided to passively track my hike using my Galaxy Watch 4, without starting any active navigation apps like Komoot (article about my experiments with Komoot in Alps). I charged my watch ...

Galaxy clusters are graveyards for Milky Way-like galaxies

The low-mass, dusty, irregular galaxy NGC 3077 is actively forming new stars, has a very blue center, and has a hydrogen gas bridge connecting it to the nearby, more massive M81. As one of 34 galaxies in the M81 Group, it’s an example of the most common type of galaxy in the Universe: much sma...

The first dark, primordial galaxy has gas, but no stars

Imagine, if you dare, what the Universe was like before any stars had ever formed within it. All of the normal, atom-based matter within it was pristine, but the regions that had slightly more matter than normal would start attracting everything in their vicinity. Over time, they would build up larg...

Applying a Deep Learning Approach to Galaxy Classification with Galaxy Zoo

Using classical Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) to classify the galaxies of the Galaxy Zoo dataset is by no means a novel idea and has been investigated repeatedly and with higher frequency with the rise of Machine Learning literacy and spread across Data Science domains. However, combining m...

Galaxy Formation

In the early stages of the formation of the universe, matter filled the raw universe homogeneously. But the distribution of matter was not exactly perfectly uniform. Some regions were negligibly denser than others. The relatively large gravitation in these relatively dense regions helped to overcome...

What is at the Centre of Our Galaxy? Tussle of the black hole with its sibling!

Recently, this image gained widespread popularity within moments of its release by the Event Horizon Telescope group (EHT group) on May 12, 2022. Depicting the center of our galaxy, the Milky Way, the EHT group propelled it to fame with the headline “Astronomers Reveal First Image of the Black...

Navigating the Pharmaverse: How Medical Affairs Can Map the Omnichannel Galaxy

The pharmaceutical industry is no longer a solitary planet orbiting around academic conferences and clinician consultations. Instead, it’s an expanding universe buzzing with information, where healthcare professionals (HCPs) and patients navigate a constellation of digital and traditional chan...
