NASA and SpaceX are preparing to bring home three American astronauts and a Russian cosmonaut from the International Space Station (ISS).

On Sunday, NASA’s Matthew Dominick, Michael Barratt, and Jeanette Epps, and Roscosmos cosmonaut Alexander Grebenkin, will fly home aboard the same Crew Dragon capsule that they arrived in back in March.

The four ISS inhabitants spent much of their time in orbit carrying out science research, including a number of studies aimed at improving human health.

The short video below offers a neat overview of Crew-8’s time aboard the station some 250 miles above Earth:

One of the astronauts, Matthew Dominick, also shared a steady stream of impressive photos and time-lapse videos during his first orbital mission.

How to watch

NASA will live-stream the undocking on its website, or you can watch the same footage via the video player that will appear later at the top of this page.

You’ll also be able to listen in on communications between the crew and Mission Control, and NASA is likely to provide a commentary to offer more insight into the spacecraft’s departure.

While the Crew Dragon will appear to edge away from the ISS at a very slow speed, keep in mind that both the spacecraft and the station are in fact orbiting Earth at a colossal 17,500 mph.

NASA will also live stream the splashdown off the coast of Florida, but the agency has yet to share a specific time for that.

The Samsung Galaxy Tab S10 series of flagship tablets won’t get monthly security updates. Although a little disappointing, Samsung has promised seven years of Android OS and security updates for these premium devices.

Samsung will support its latest tablets for seven years

Samsung recently announced the premium Galaxy Tab S10 series of tablets. This year, the company skipped the base variant and is offering the Galaxy Tab S10 Plus and the Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra.

The Galaxy Tab S10 series devices could be easily considered flagship and industry-leading tablets. In other words, they are right up there with the Samsung Galaxy S24 series of smartphones.

Samsung has promised to support the premium tablets for seven years. Specifically speaking, the Samsung Galaxy Tab S10 series will get seven Android versions and seven years of security updates from Samsung.

Needless to say, it is truly rare and remarkable for an Android tablet to receive software support for such a long time. Considering these tablets run Android 14 out of the box, Samsung has technically assured they will get the Android 21 update. It would be a record for these tablets, or more specifically their batteries, to survive this long.

Samsung won’t send security updates to the Galaxy Tab S10 every month

According to Phone Arena, these tablets will receive security updates every three months. Samsung has updated its official ‘Security Update’ page. The company has included the Galaxy Tab S10 Plus and S10 Ultra as officially supported devices.

Samsung has added the Galaxy Tab S10 series tablets to the “Current Models for Quarterly Security Updates” list. What this means is these tablets will get security updates every three months.

It is strange to note that Samsung won’t increase the frequency of security updates for the Galaxy Tab S10 tablets to match its other flagship devices. Samsung has traditionally sent out security updates to its tablets every three months. In other words, the company hasn’t broken the pattern. However, some reports suggest Samsung could have sent out security updates to the Galaxy Tab S10 tablet every month, just like the Galaxy S24 series of smartphones.

October Prime Day has come and gone but, as to be expected, there are still a few deals floating around on the internet. This year’s fall Prime Day brought a slew of deals across all categories, including tech, and some of those deals haven’t expired just yet. There’s a chance we see some of these sale prices return in a month when Black Friday comes around, but if you’re keen on getting some of your holiday shopping done now, you still have a bit more time. Here are the best Prime Day deals you can still get today.

Best Prime Day Apple deals
