Copilot Docks to Windows 11 Edge, Resizing Your Desktop Layout

Microsoft is rolling out a new Copilot docking feature for Windows 11 that lets Copilot snap to the left or right edge (or stay on top as a small window), causing your open apps to resize and reflow around the AI pane. This returns Copilot to the original idea of living alongside your apps rather than as a separate window, following several redesigns, and is being rolled out gradually. The docked Copilot is accessed via a title-bar menu and may be backed by an Edge-based wrapper, with Windows Latest noting the new snapping as a distinct option from the native Snap Layouts.

Private rescue mission targets in-orbit docking to save aging NASA observatory

Aging NASA observatory Swift is losing altitude, triggering a high-stakes, privately led effort to intercept and dock with the spacecraft in orbit to extend its life; if successful, the mission could redefine satellite servicing and maintenance in space while proceeding on a tight, months-long timeline with a modest $30 million budget.

Antenna Glitch Triggers Manual Docking Plan for Russian ISS Cargo Ship

A newly launched Russian Progress 94 cargo spacecraft developed an antenna deployment failure, jeopardizing automated rendezvous with the ISS. Ground teams are evaluating contingency procedures, including a backup manual docking by cosmonaut Sergey Kud-Sverchkov if the antenna cannot deploy. All other systems remain nominal, and docking was planned, with the cargo expected to stay attached to the station for about six months.

Progress 94 Faces Antenna Glitch Ahead of ISS Docking

The Progress 94 cargo spacecraft failed to deploy two automated rendezvous antennas on its way to the ISS, jeopardizing its planned autonomous docking. Roscosmos is troubleshooting, and if unresolved a cosmonaut aboard the ISS (Sergey Kud-Sverchkov) could manually dock the spacecraft using TORU. The uncrewed ship carries about 3 tons of supplies and is scheduled to dock on Tuesday, with NASA providing a live stream of the rendezvous.

Valentine’s Day Dock: SpaceX Crew-12 Arrives at ISS to bolster a skeleton crew

SpaceX’s Crew-12 astronauts docked the Dragon capsule with the International Space Station on Valentine’s Day, delivering four crewmembers—Jessica Meir, Jack Hathaway, Sophie Adenot, and Andrey Fedyaev—to a skeleton ISS crew after Crew-11’s medical evacuation left the station short-handed; they’ll join three other astronauts for an eight-month stay, with hatch opening expected around 5 p.m. EST after cargo transfer.

Nintendo Switch 2's USB-C Lockdown Challenges Third-Party Dock Compatibility

The Switch 2's dock supports Variable Refresh Rate (VRR), but it doesn't work with the console itself. Instead, VRR can be enabled by plugging other handheld devices like the Steam Deck into the dock, allowing for 4K and 120fps gameplay. Nintendo has not yet enabled this feature for the Switch 2, possibly due to ongoing testing, but it is available for other devices when docked.
