O Apple TV divulgou o trailer de “A Dinastia — UConn Huskies” (“The Dynasty: UConn Huskies”), sua nova série documental que narra a trajetória de 40 anos do renomado programa de basquete feminino da Universidade de Connecticut (UConn) sob o comando do técnico Geno Auriemma, membro do Hall da Fama.

A produção, dividida em três partes, estreará mundialmente no dia 21 de agosto (uma sexta-feira).

“The Dynasty: UConn Huskies” narra a ascensão do programa mais dominante na história do basquete universitário nos Estados Unidos. Com entrevistas exclusivas com a equipe campeã nacional de 2025 e participações de figuras do basquete da UConn, a série explora a busca pela excelência, as expectativas que acompanham o sucesso duradouro e as pessoas que mantiveram esse padrão ao longo das gerações.

A série reflete sobre o legado que construiu o programa e oferece um olhar raro de bastidores sobre as jogadoras que dão continuidade a essa história, por meio de conversas aprofundadas com técnicos, atletas, ex-jogadoras, rivais e jornalistas de várias gerações do basquete da UConn, incluindo KK Arnold, Auriemma, Sue Bird, Paige Bueckers, Jim Calhoun, Swin Cash, Chris Dailey, Mickie DeMoss, Jana El Alfy, Jamelle Elliott, Azzi Fudd, Jeff Goldberg, Sally Jenkins, Steve Kerr, Rebecca Lobo, Jackie MacMullan, Maya Moore, Alexa Philippou, Shea Ralph, Semeka Randall, Jennifer Rizzotti, Breanna Stewart, Sarah Strong, Diana Taurasi e Tamika Williams-Jeter.

Reed, Jon Weinbach, Lauren Gaffney, Lindsay Kagawa Colas, Grant Jones, Jon Liebman e Zoe Rogovin como produtores executivos.

A dried-out felt-tip marker and a snapped-off piece of molded black plastic sold for $857,600 at a Sotheby's auction on Wednesday.

What otherwise might have been worthless bits of trash commanded the highest bids due to where the two items were 57 years ago—lifting off aboard NASA's Apollo 11 spacecraft on humanity's first mission to land astronauts on the Moon. More than flown odds and ends, one was the problem that almost stranded Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin on the lunar surface, and the other was the simple solution to saving the mission.

"Houston, Tranquility. Do you have a way of showing the configuration of the engine arm circuit breaker?" radioed Aldrin to Mission Control after realizing he or Armstrong had inadvertently broken off the top of the circuit breaker switch that would enable their ascent engine to ignite, beginning their trip back to Earth. "The reason I'm asking is because the end of it appears to be broken off. I think we can push it back in again. I'm not sure we could pull it out if we pushed it in, though."

Schwarzman Centre, Oxford
Headlong’s take on Karel Čapek’s 1920 tale of romance and robots is rife with timely debates about tech’s threat but at times the philosophical discussions drag on

If our world is currently thinking through the brave new future of generative AI and super intelligence, Karel Čapek’s 1920 play RUR: Rossum’s Universal Robots proves the notion of robot consciousness and rebellion is not a new anxiety. So does Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein, which Čapek’s drama resembles in its philosophical debates and moral warnings, despite its futurism.

Ella Road adapts Čapek’s play for our times in this Headlong and Schwarzman Centre co-production, its science apparently informed by research from Oxford University academics, which gives it a cutting-edge, real-world underpinning.
