Sony Pictures ELYSIUM The story of the movie and promotional videos



In the year 2159, two classes of people exist: the very wealthy, who live on a pristine man-made space station called Elysium, and the rest, who live on an overpopulated, ruined Earth.

The people of Earth are desperate to escape the planet's crime and poverty, and they critically need the state-of-the-art medical care available on Elysium – but some in Elysium will stop at nothing to enforce anti-immigration laws and preserve their citizens' luxurious lifestyle. The only man with the chance to bring equality to these worlds is Max (Matt Damon), an ordinary guy in desperate need to get to Elysium. With his life hanging in the balance, he reluctantly takes on a dangerous mission – one that pits him against Elysium's Secretary Delacourt (Jodie Foster) and her hard-line forces – but if he succeeds, he could save not only his own life,
but millions of people on Earth as well.

DUST514 EVE Online: Battle for Caldari Prime promotional video



One universe, one war! Watch this trailer and see what we mean.

The Caldari homeworld of Caldari Prime is located in the Gallente-controlled Luminaire system. Tensions between the planet's idealistic Gallente and hard-nosed Caldari populations have erupted into all-out warfare, and now the immortal DUST 514 mercs and EVE Online capsuleers fight a cross-game battle to control this pivotal planet.

Watch this trailer to see how these two amazing games interact! While mercs battle in the fields of Caldari Prime, starships slug it out in the skies, taking on the massive Caldari Titan stationed in permanent planetary orbit. A soldier on the ground calls in an orbital strike, and a pilot breaks through the enemy blockade and delivers in devastating fashion. And this is just a snippet of the inter-game conflict to come!

NASA Television ScienceCast: Record-Setting Asteroid Flyby video




On Feb. 15th an asteroid about half the size of a football field will fly past Earth closer than many man-made satellites.

Since regular sky surveys began in the 1990s, astronomers have never seen an object so big come so close to our planet.
