The aim is not currently for the whole pregnancy to take place in space, but instead a 24- to 36-hour mission for the labor. The company thinks this can happen in about 12 years. So how will the location be worded on the birth certificate?

- At the wedding reception for Ohio newlyweds Adam and Blair Tyson, the bride was gifted the bouquet of Tyson chicken nuggets during a toast. Blair’s cousin was the maid of honor and was giving a cheeky li’l nod to her friend’s new last name with the gesture… The maid of honor reached out to chicken company Tyson prior to the wedding to see if she could pull something off. She was super surprised when they replied back with a letter offering the couple a year’s worth of nuggets.

- If you had some employees absent today, or your kid claimed he’s not feeling well and needed to stay home from school, the actual cause could be Fortnite. Epic Games made its fanbase stare at a black hole long enough, and on Tuesday (around 6AM ET) gave Fortnite a huge new update, which the company is calling Chapter 2. As expected, the battle royale shooter features a totally new map, a ton of new skins and a welcome makeover for the game’s mechanics. Fortnite: Battle Royale Chapter 2, Season 1 is now active on all platforms.

- As early as Friday, you might have to rescan your local TV channels on your TV — if you watch TV using an over-the-air antenna. By law, nearly 1,000 TV stations must move to new frequencies to make room for wireless services. After you rescan your TV set, your local TV stations will still be found at their usual channel numbers… If you rely on an antenna to receive free, over-the-air TV, rescan your TV or converter box anytime after when your station moves frequencies to continue watching free, broadcast television. The actual channel number that you see will not change. TV stations have been assigned different timeframes to move frequencies, so you may need to rescan your TV more than once.
