Last week, Activision revealed that a "large-scale" Zombies mode called Outbreak is coming to Season Two of Call of Duty: Black Ops—Cold War . Today it dropped a trailer showcasing the new mode in action, along with a blog post detailing how it's all going to work. The trailer isn't much to write home about, I don't think: Gunfire, explosions, zombies, and generic one-liners delivered flatly by voice actors who sound like they're reading from the phone book, while a classic rock remix plays in the background. The blog post is a different story, however. There's plenty of narrative background if you're into that sort of thing, and more practically there's also a breakdown of how the new mode will actually play. Squads of up to four players will be inserted into the Outbreak zone and given one of five objectives to investigate and complete.

Take A Look At This 10 Trillion Pixel Image Of The Night Sky
Space is an impossibly massive zone that countless stars and planets reside in, and if you want to capture even a fraction of the sky then you're going to have to approach that challenge with some equally gigantic ideas. Astronomers across the world gathered for a chance to capture a photo of the northern sky according to SyFy, pooling resources over six years to create a 10 trillion pixel image.Weighing in at an entire petabyte of data--a thousand terabytes to put that into perspective--the final image revealed a wealth of new information. Thanks to the efforts of the DESI Legacy Imaging Surveys, maps of the sky were compiled by multiple observatories: the Dark Energy Camera Legacy Survey, the Beijing-Arizona Sky Survey, and the Mayall Zband Legacy Survey, in combination with the orbiting WISE infrared observatory.While the photograph taken shows off more than a billion galaxies, the overall aim of the project is to research dark energy and its effects on accelerating the expansion of … [Read more...] about Take A Look At This 10 Trillion Pixel Image Of The Night Sky
