    I bought a 49-inch ultrawide monitor — and it has transformed how I work

    Hmm, I don't argue that's it's more productive. For me, I went from standard size monitors to 21:9, and then to 32:9. At first I felt going from 21:9 to 32:9 wouldn't make a big difference, but it totally did. Can multimonitor be equally productive, sure! I've personally never had a...

    Yup! You're correct. The image was the CAPCOM console with two monitors side-by-side. The angle of the picture just made it look like an ultrawide. We've issued a correction and called NASA to confirm.

    You are correct! Thank you for catching this. I reached out to Nasa Johnson Space Center and they confirmed as such. They apparently have received questions about the use of ultrawide monitors in the past, which I found funny. And the NASA representative acknowledge that the lighting or angle...
