During its time on the red planet, it has racked up quite a few great achievements.    One of those achievements was taking a stunning panoramic image of the surface of Mars. The panoramic image was put together by 122 images taken by Curiosity. The stunning photo gave scientists the best look at the surface of Mars that they've ever had.   Another impressive achievement for Curiosity was finding organic molecules, a surprising discovery that breathed new life into the exploration and understanding of Mars. Curiosity also recorded an image of a dust devil on the red planet. So, what else has Curiosity achieved over the 8 years it's been on Mars? What's next for the rover as Perseverance, a new rover, is on its way to the red planet?

(Barron's crowned his hedge fund as the "world's best" and Kiplinger ranked it in the top 1%.) But a few years ago, he left Wall Street. "I just grew tired of helping the rich get richer," Paul explains. "So I started sharing my No. 1 investment picks with Main Street Americans."

In 2018, Paul's No. 1 pick — Roku — shot up 393%. In 2019, Paul's No. 1 pick — MTech Acquisitions — shot up 332%. But Paul believes his No. 1 stock pick for 2021 could go even higher.

The failures could lead to safety issues due to a loss of backup camera views.   The recall impacts over one hundred and fifty thousand Tesla vehicles, including the 2012-2018 Model S and 2016-2018 Model X. Along with the backup camera problems, the windshield defrost/defogger button can become inaccessible when the touchscreen system fails. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, that poses a significant safety hazard for drivers. Tesla has until the end of January to respond to the government's request.

Revenue has decreased 40% since the virus forced arenas to close.   Such an expansion would bring the total number of NBA teams to 32, and would generate an estimated $3 billion to $4 billion. That money would be allocated among the teams, but not the players.    But where will these new teams be based?    When making that decision, the former NBA team president said owners consider four things: A-B-C-D.   "The A is Avidity: the market you're picking has to be an avid sports market. The B is simple: Who is your billionaire? If you don't have your billionaire, you don't have anything. The C is the community: the elected officials, the leading businesses who are going to support you and the fan base. The D [destination] is where are you playing? The NBA is not playing in yesterday's arena. Those are the four key parts."    Which cities are hoping that their A-B-C-D's make them a prime pick for a new team?
