After the 2020 pandemic bump, we expect monthly digital gaming usage will see minimal growth through the end of our forecast (1.1% in 2022 and 0.9% in 2023). We expect the number of US digital gamers to reach 179.6 million by 2022. Other gaming platforms that serve as a happy medium between convenient mobile gaming technology and more advanced console systems are laptop and PC devices. Overall, there will be more than 29.6 million monthly US esports viewers in 2022, amounting to over 49.9% of all GVC viewers. But this growth won’t last too long, as monthly digital gamers are expected to increase by just 1.1% in 2022.

Nava spațială New Horizons (Noi Orizonturi) ce aparține NASA a trimis primele fotografii ale celor mai ascuțite puncte de vedere ale lui Pluto, obținute în timpul zborului din iulie 2015. Acestea sunt și cele mai calitative imagini ale lui Pluto pe care oamenii le pot vedea. În fiecare săptămână, nava de dimensiunile unui pian, New Horizons, a transmis datele de stocate înregistrate digital, pe data de 14 iulie 2015, în timpul planării deasupra lui Pluto. Aceste noi imagini au rezoluții de aproximativ 77-85 metri per pixel și reprezintă o varietate mare de cratere, terenuri montane și glaciare. New Horizons a reușit să capteze mai multe imagini, dar va dura circa un an pentru ca ele să ajungă pe Pământ.
