Allen the Alien, voiced by @Sethrogen in ‘Invincible,’ needs a spinoff. Allen provides perspective, brings closure to a hero’s journey, and prepares him for the future threat. Allen allows the audience to take a breath amid chaos. inverse.com/entertainment/…
What initially brought Allen to Mark was a simple mixup. As a 'Champion Evaluator' for the Coalition of Planets, Allen's job is to test the mettle of every 'guardian' put in place to protect their assigned world. inverse.com/entertainment/…
Rogen's subtle performance, and Allen's empathetic understanding of Mark's plights, remind us if only for a moment, that we all have the power to persevere and shoot for the Moon. inverse.com/entertainment/…

A team of astronomers discovered at least 70 rogue planets in the Milky Way, marking the largest group of rogue planets ever found. These free floaters roam the universe on their own without being bound to a host star. inverse.com/science/larges…
NASA launched its Kepler space telescope in 2009 to find Earth-like planets orbiting different stars. The telescope spotted a free-floating planetary-mass object around 100 light-years away from Earth. inverse.com/science/larges…
Planet CFBDSIR2149 was the first rogue planet discovery, and its proximity helped astronomers learn more about these planetary anomalies. Some scientists believe these planets could even host life, despite all odds. inverse.com/science/larges…

Obsessed with making a third Hellboy, @perlmutations told Inverse, “The result was going to be dramatic, super-violent, biblical in nature, Greek mythology.” Perlman is one of the few people who know how Guillermo would complete the trilogy. inverse.com/entertainment/…
The saga was always meant to be a trilogy. Never say never, Perlman hopes that one day someone will use @RealGDT's script to finish the trilogy, whether or not Guillermo directs it or he’s Hellboy, “the circle needs to be completed.” inverse.com/entertainment/… Image
Del Toro and Perlman shared a similar sense of self-depreciation and a love of monsters, a passion that’s defined both of their careers. Perlman says, “It was the beginning, as they say at the end of Casablanca, of a beautiful friendship.” inverse.com/entertainment/… Image

In a first for humanity, a manmade spacecraft has kissed the Sun. inverse.com/science/we-tou…
“Not only does this milestone provide us with deeper insights into our Sun’s evolution and its impacts on our Solar System, but everything we learn about our own star also teaches us more about stars in the rest of the universe." inverse.com/science/we-tou…
NASA’s audacious Parker Solar Probe achieved the scientific first after three years and five Venus flybys, entering the Sun’s atmosphere on April 28, 2021. inverse.com/science/we-tou…

TV's funniest angry dad of 2021 reveals a dark truth about masculinity in Scene Stealer #21. Mike Melsky is portrayed by @conner_omalley in 'Joe Pera Talks With You.' He's captivating and frenzied and way over the top. He's chaotic. You can't look away. inverse.com/entertainment/…
O’Malley’s comedic style informs the energy of Mike Melsky, a force for chaos in the show’s first two seasons. Difficult to witness Mike Melsky, he still commands a repulsive sense of awe. inverse.com/entertainment/…
In a show dominated by a character with mannerisms from another era, Mike is the one most tapped into our zeitgeist of fragile, angry wounded-animal masculinity. When Mike is on the screen, it becomes his show anyway for however long it lasts. inverse.com/entertainment/…

Stealing the show is what Scene Stealers 2021 is about. Coming in at #22 is Danielle Poole, portrayed by Krys Marshall, from ‘For All Mankind.’ She becomes the first Black American to command a NASA mission. inverse.com/entertainment/…
‘For All Mankind’ is a must-see Apple TV+ series that reminds us alternate history speculation isn’t about the limp reimagining of the past. It’s having something critical to say about our present – and what we aspire to in a space-faring future. inverse.com/entertainment/… Image
Sci-fi is a balm on cultural ills. With Poole, 'For All Mankind' subsumes Star Trek to be more in touch with progressive ideals than the source it's paying homage to and creates a counter-mythology to our predominantly white history of spaceflight. inverse.com/entertainment/… Image

A gigantic gas planet was discovered in a double star system 325 light-years away that challenges scientists’ ideas about how planets form. inverse.com/science/b-cent…
Markus Jonson and his team used the SPHERE exoplanet imager on the European Southern Observatory’s Very Large Telescope to survey the star system. The two stars should be too big and hot to have a giant planet. inverse.com/science/b-cent…
Officially dubbed b Cen (AB)b, the planet is 11 times the mass of Jupiter, and its orbit is 100 times more expensive than Jupiter’s. There are very few Solar System objects that orbit that far from the Sun. inverse.com/science/b-cent…
