NASA’s Curiosity rover celebrates 5,000 days on Mars with a new “postcard.”

The shot marks 14 years since Curiosity landed on the Martian surface in 2012. NASA created it by merging two black-and-white panoramas from Curiosity’s navigation cameras then added color “for an artistic interpretation of the scene, with blue representing the morning panorama and yellow representing the afternoon one.” [Image: https://platform.theverge.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2026/09/nasa-mars-curiosity-5000-days-on-mars-panorama.jpg?quality=90&strip=all]

Tenzing - Official Trailer - IGN

Check out the trailer for Tenzing, an upcoming film starring Genden Phuntsok, Tom Hiddleston, Willem Dafoe, Caitríona Balfe, Thinley Lhamo, and Tenzin Dalha. Tenzing premieres in select theaters on October 9, 2026, and globally on Apple TV on October 16, 2026. Based on true events, Tenzing chronicles the little-known story of Tenzing Norgay (Genden Phuntsok), a gifted Himalayan climber who, alongside New Zealand mountaineer Edmund Hillary (Tom Hiddleston), became the first to summit Mount Everest. Encouraged by his wife Dawa (Thinley Lhamo), Tenzing finds an ally in expedition secretary Jill Henderson (Caitríona Balfe). Together, they persuade Colonel John Hunt (Willem Dafoe) that Tenzing belongs on the British climbing team, rather than merely serving it. Where Western climbers see “Everest” as something to be conquered, Tenzing reveres “Chomolungma” as the sacred mother goddess. What follows is an ascent defined as much by the tensions between backgrounds, classes and competing ambitions as by the perils of the mountain itself. But high above the world, empire, rank and aspiration fall away, leaving two outsiders bound by mutual respect and trust — and for Tenzing, the fulfillment of both a lifelong dream and a spiritual calling.Tenzing is produced by Jennifer Peedom, Luke Davies, Liz Watts, Iain Canning, Emile Sherman, and Desray Armstrong. Norbu Tenzing, Simon Gillis, and David Michôd serve as executive producers. It is written by Luke Davies. The story is by Jennifer Peedom and Luke Davies. Directed by award-winning filmmaker Jennifer Peedom, Tenzing is a story of greatness that refuses to be diminished — and the love that makes it possible.
