Wednesday was a lot. A studio full of Sims and soccer games changed hands for billions, an AI company got caught doing something it shouldn’t, and a chunk of rocket smacked into the Moon. Here are the ten stories worth knowing about today.

8. See the Sun like never before with most detailed images yet. New footage catches swirling “whirlpools” of solar activity that scientists have never been able to see this clearly.
9. Why some scientists are thrilled that a SpaceX rocket has crashed into the Moon. The crash was an accident, but the fresh crater it left behind could teach researchers something new about the Moon’s surface.
