NASA made a bet a few years ago that commercial companies could bring scientific experiments to the moon with a lower budget than the agency.Last year, it was a bad bet. The first spatial vehicle financed by NASA completely missed the moon. The second has landed but has fallen.But this month, a robotic lander named Blue Ghost, built by Firefly Aerospace of Cedar Park, in Texas, managed from start to finish.On March 16, the mood to the Firefly mission operations outside Austin was a mix of happy and melancholy. There was nothing else to worry about, nothing to do, except looking at the company's spatial vehicle to die.At a quarter of a million miles away, the sun had already placed itself on the mare crisis, the lunar lava plain where Blue Ghost had collected scientific observations for two...

The Israeli army said she launched a second cycle of attacks on Saturday evening.The attacks were the last example of how the renewed Israeli offensive to Gaza was rippling through the Middle East. They also risk further interrupting the return of tens of thousands of displaced residents on both sides of the border that had fled more than a year of fi...

Il 4 marzo, un incaricato di Trump presso il Dipartimento degli Affari dei Veterani ha diffuso un promemoria per la leadership senior. L'agenzia, ha affermato, "si sarebbe trasferita in modo aggressivo" per migliorare l'efficienza, con un "obiettivo iniziale" di tagliare la forza lavoro ai livelli del 2019.La mattina dopo, qualcuno ha pubblicato una copia di questo promemoria di "riduzione in vigore" a un gruppo Reddit chiamato VeteransAffairs, una comunità online di 19.000 membri. La copia era difficile da seguire, una sequenza di foto scattate sul memo su uno schermo, ma il messaggio era abbastanza chiaro: circa 80.000 posti di lavoro sarebbero stati tagliati.Domande e commenti si sono riversati, alcuni sconcertati, alcuni frenetici. L'agenzia aveva mezzo milione di dipendenti in ospedal...

"I saw Alzheimer's as was," said his mother's long decline. "The memory of what he has passed is deep for me."The prospect of dementia, which includes Alzheimer's disease and a series of other cognitive disorders...

If it were not obvious that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu by Israel believes he has an ally in his battle against the country's attorney general, his judges and even the head of his home security service, clarified on Wednesday evening."In America and Israel, when a strong right -wing leader wins the elections, the Deep State on the left wears the judicial system to counter the will of the people," he wrote in a post on social media. "They don't win in either of the two places! We are strong together."The Defiant, Trumpian Blast was the last proof of the fact that Mr. Netanyahu and President Trump are managing the same playbook book to achieve surprisingly similar goals: to neutral the judiciary, dismantle a supervision system that puts a check on their authority and discredit the prof...

Investigators developed the burnt remains of a power sub -setting near the Heathrow airport in London on Friday, looking for the cause of a spectacular flame that closed the most crowded travel hub of Europe for most of the day and raised wider questions about British energy infrastructures.Energy officials and experts said that a defect in a transformer with 275,000 volts that crossed it probably aroused a huge oil -powered fire that interrupted the airport and tens of thousands of nearby houses from the electricity grid. The systems designed to prevent such a apparently failed fire and the size of the fire seemed to prevent a second transformer in the vicinity of restoring electricity.But the mystery of what caused that fault first remained far from resolved by the end of Friday, even if...
