NASA scientists have decided to up the ante by firing a cartoon of two nude people into deep space.The 'Beacon in the Galaxy' (BITG) project aims to send a message to other civilisations in space that invites them to come and talk to us. It includes a depiction of gravity, DNA, and pixelated drawings of a human male and female couple waving hello.The galactic beacon leaves nothing to the imagination, with the blocky nudes' bits dangling out in full view.The reason scientists have chosen these images is because of the challenges of communicating with species which may have a completely different form of language to humanity.“The proposed message includes basic mathematical and physical concepts to establish a universal means of communication followed by information on the biochemical composition of life on Earth, the Solar System’s time-stamped position in the Milky Way relative to known globular clusters, as well as digitized depictions of the Solar System, and Earth’s surface,” the scientists behind the project write in a study.

Joaquin Phoenix has proved once again he’s a master of his craft as he cut a very noble figure in character as Napoleon Bonaparte for the first time for Sir Ridley Scott’s forthcoming epic film.The actor had every air and grace about him as he transformed into the French leader for his new film, which is set for release next year – and safe to say, he couldn’t have come further from his Joker days.Pictured on set in South East London, as Greenwich was transformed into 18th century France, Joaquin looked completely the part in navy military regalia, complete with golden trimming.The 47-year-old, who measures a little taller at five foot eight than the famously diminutive Napoleon was believed to be, looked a little surly in various shots as he portrayed the fiery-tempered leader.Pictured amid horses and carriages, with French flags draping the buildings, Greenwich was also transformed, with plenty of actors and extras out in force.In more shots, masked-up crew members were seen grappling with equipment as they discussed the shots. The historical drama, simply titled Napoleon, will follow the leader’s relationship with his wife Josephine and his climb to power.
