• Last week Yvonne Brill, a pioneering NASA rocket scientist, died at the age of 88.

• The Latino Review reports that MMA fighter Georges St-Pierre has been cast as villain Batroc the Leaper in Captain America: The Winter Soldier. (ScreenRant)

• Jezebel reports that an interracial version of Romeo and Juliet, starring Orlando Bloom and Condola Rashad, is coming to Broadway.

• Megan Purdy at Women Write About Comics explains What we talk about when we talk about fake fangirls.
• Via The Guardian, Scientists have created a 3D display that could mimic the Princess Leia hologram in Star Wars
