Early this morning, NASA postponed a spacewalk scheduled to occur outside the International Space Station today, after getting word of a possible safety threat from some nearby space debris. It's unclear where the debris is coming from, but the delay comes about two weeks after Russia blew up one of its own satellites in orbit, creating thousands of dangerous fragments that threatened the space station.

NASA astronauts Kayla Barron and Thomas Marshburn were all set to don spacesuits and leave the confines of the ISS this morning at around 7:10AM ET, in order to replace an antenna on the outside of the station. It would have been the fifth spacewalk for Marshburn and the first for Barron.

iRobot has released a holiday-themed update for its latest robot vacuum cleaners to help them handle the cleaning demands of Christmas trees. The j7 and j7 Plus robovacs can also now identify and avoid shoes and socks.

The festive trees, shoes, and socks feature builds upon iRobot's latest navigation and control software, which first released in August last year. This software uses machine vision to identify furniture and specify "clean zones." For example, you might have a dining table you want a Roomba to specifically clean under after chaotic family meals. There are also "keep out zones" which a Roomba might suggest avoiding, like the area under a TV stand filled with cables for it to get caught on.

The UK's competition regulator has officially ruled that Facebook parent company Meta's acquisition of Giphy should be unwound, a year and a half after the social media giant first said it was acquiring the popular GIF-making and sharing website. In a press release, the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) said that it had come to the decision after its investigation found an acquisition could harm competition between social media platforms, and that its concerns "can only be addressed by Facebook selling Giphy in its entirety to an approved buyer."

The CMA said the acquisition could be used to deny or limit other platforms' access to Giphy GIFs and drive more traffic to Facebook, WhatsApp, and Instagram. It also raised concerns that...

FIFA, the global governing body of the sport variously known as football and soccer, is trialling new technology that tracks players' limbs to detect whether they're in an offside position. The system will be employed at the 2021 Arab Cup, which kicks off today in Qatar, the host of next year's World Cup.

FIFA calls the system "semi-automatic offside technology." It involves a camera setup installed on the roof of the stadium, with limb data extracted from the video and sent to the match officials' operating room so the offside line can be calculated in real time. The BBC reports that 10 to 12 cameras collect up to 29 data points for each player 50 times a second.
