A microphone on the Perseverance rover captures a gust of wind on the red planet, and the audio has had a wider impact than the scientists anticipated. Plus, Facebook re-friends Australia, WhatsApp users will be cut off if they don’t accept the new terms and conditions, and Twisted Metal fans could soon be bingeing on a TV series based on the iconic game.
