679 million people watched China's robots perform fully autonomous kung fu at the 2026 Spring Festival Gala. Backflips. Nunchucks. Sword fights. Drunken boxing. No operators. No remote control. No second takes.

One year ago these same machines were shuffling across a stage waving handkerchiefs. Today they are sparring with martial arts masters, executing 7.5-rotation airflare spins, and performing three consecutive single-leg backflips in front of the largest television audience on Earth.

This video breaks down the 8 most jaw-dropping moments " from the robot that bowed to a child, to the swarm of 20 machines that moved as one organism at 4 meters per second, to the single move at the end that made a stadium go silent.

"A holiday named for the goddess is part of the neopagan Wiccan Wheel of the Year (Ostara, 21 March).[40]

In some forms of modern Germanic paganism, 'ostre (or Ostara) is venerated. Regarding this veneration, Carole M. Cusack comments that, among adherents, 'ostre is "associated with the coming of spring and the dawn, and her festival is celebrated at the spring equinox.

Because she brings renewal, rebirth from the death of winter, some Heathens associate 'ostre with Iunn, keeper of the apples of youth in Scandinavian mythology".[41]

Erroneous association with Ishtar

In 1853, Scottish protestant minister Alexander Hislop published The Two Babylons, an anti-Catholic tract. In the tract, Hislop connects modern English Easter with the East Semitic theonym Ishtar by way of folk etymology. For example, from The Two Babylons, third edition:

What means the term Easter itself? It is not a Christian name. It bears its Chaldean origin on its very forehead. Easter is nothing else than Astarte, one of the titles of Beltis, the queen of heaven, whose name, as pronounced by the people of Ninevah, was evidently identical with that now in common use in this country. This name as found by Layard on the Assyrian monuments, is Ishtar.[43]

Because Hislop's claims have no linguistics foundation, his claims were rejected, but the Two Babylons would go on to have some influence in popular culture.[44]

In the 2000s, a popular Internet meme similarly claimed an incorrect linguistic connection between English Easter and Ishtar.[33]"
