The series What If...? will be part of the MCU canon.

-

 Marvel has revealed some interesting details about their new animated series, What If...? We knew it was a series of alternate storylines in which we would see different versions of Marvel's heroes and villains, but now it's official that these stories will be part of the MCU canon.


And this is thanks to the multiverse that started from the end of the Loki series.

The series What If...? will be part of the MCU canon.


"Canon" is a term used in the world of film and television, especially in mega franchises, to identify the stories and characters that are part of the main and official universe of that saga. Anything that is not canon is an alternate story that is not related to the main movies or series.


Originally it was believed that What If...? would not be part of the canon of the MCU, but rather an alternate storyline, because of the stories that even involve zombies and a T'Challa that instead of becoming Black Panther becomes Star-Lord and is part of the Guardians of the Galaxy, among many other different stories. But now, thanks to the existence of the multiverse in the MCU, all these stories can and will be canon.


AC Bradley, lead writer for the series, mentioned to IGN that even though it's an anthology-type series (each episode will tell a different story, animated and with alternate versions of characters we already know: "The events of What If...? are canon. It's part of the multiverse of the MCU. The multiverse is here, it's real and it's absolutely fantastic folks."


A Marvel Studios producer also mentioned at a conference that, although it will be an anthology-type series, there will be one character that will be part of each season of the series. And that will be Captain Britain, the version of Peggy Carter in which she becomes a super-soldier.


"There will be one character who won't be more important than the rest, but she will have a relationship with The Watcher [a character who will observe all these events in the series and be a sort of narrator], who is the force behind the series. That will be Captain Carter.


What If...? premieres on Disney+ on August 11. A second season of the series is already in development. [by IGN]

Wasps are building fluorescent nests

 Wasps are building fluorescent nests A team of scientists say they have come across the first known case of animals building fluorescent houses. In a new study, they detail the finding of nests built by certain species of wasps that glow green under exposure to ultraviolet light. What's more, wasps of the same family in other parts of the world also appear capable of creating similarly creepy structures. The discovery occurred during an expedition to northern Vietnam, but not intentionally, according to the scientists. Study author Bernd Schöllhorn, a professor of chemistry at the University of Paris, told Live Science that they traveled with ultraviolet lights in the hope of stumbling upon any fluorescent bugs after dark. Instead, they found wasp nests with cocoons (woven silk structures that cover the nest and keep the larvae safe) that emitted a bright mucus-green glow when exposed to ultraviolet light between 360 and 400 nanometers wavelength at night. Like any good researche...

 Chinese military satellite disintegrates into more than 20 parts after collision with Russian space debris The mysterious malfunction of the Yunhai 1-02 satellite in March may have been resolved. The discarded wreckage of an old Russian rocket appears to have crashed into the Chinese satellite, in what is an ominous sign of things to come in our increasingly crowded low Earth orbit. On March 22, 2021, the U.S. Space Force's 18th Space Control Squadron posted a startling tweet announcing that Yunhai 1-02, a Chinese military satellite launched in September 2019, had broken up. The breakup occurred four days earlier, and it was unclear why this less than two-year-old satellite suddenly experienced a calamitous malfunction. In its tweet, the Space Force squadron said its "analysis is ongoing" and that it would track down the 21 pieces of newly created debris. #18SPCS has confirmed the breakup of YUNHAI 1-02 (#44547, 2019-063A), which occurred on March 18, 2021, at 0741 UTC...
