Hong Kong CNN —China’s Chang’e-6 lunar module returned to Earth Tuesday, successfully completing its historic mission to collect the first ever samples from the far side of the moon in a major step forward for the country’s ambitious space program. “The Chang’e-6 lunar exploration mission has been a complete success,” said Zhang Kejian, head of the China National Space Administration (CNSA), from the control room. Once they receive the samples, Chinese scientists are expected to share data and carry out joint research with international partners, before Beijing later opens the samples for access by international teams, according to statements from CNSA officials. China and the US are not alone in eyeing the national prestige, potential scientific benefits, access to resources and further deep space exploration that successful moon missions could bring. Last year, India landed its first spacecraft on the moon, while Russia’s first lunar mission in decades ended in failure when its Luna 25 probe crashed into the moon’s surface.

CNN —Forecasters will soon be able to see real-time mapping of lightning activity on Earth and keep a closer eye on solar storms unleashed by the sun thanks to a new weather satellite. The weather satellite lifted off aboard a SpaceX Falcon Heavy rocket from Kennedy Space Center in Florida at 5:26 p.m. What sets GOES-U apart from other satellites is that it’s carrying a new capability to keep an eye on space weather. The coronagraph will provide continuous observations of the solar corona, or the hot outer layer of the sun’s atmosphere, which is where space weather events originate, said Elsayed Talaat, director of NOAA’s Office of Space Weather Observations. The instrument’s capabilities will allow NOAA’s Space Weather Prediction Center to issue warnings and watches one to four days in advance and “mark a new chapter in space weather observatoions,” Talaat said.

With around 120 guests, we saved thousands. I traded an expensive wedding cake for chocolate fondueThe tiered wedding cakes we looked at cost up to $1,000. I saved thousands by buying fake flowers over real bouquetsAccording to The Knot, real flower bouquets cost an average of $2,800 in 2023. Upholding a wedding budget was hard enough without planning a trip on top of it. Sticking to a budget is wedding planning 101, but strategic spending was how we made our dream wedding into reality.

This is Street Wars, a weekly series on the battle for space on New York’s streets and sidewalks. Jimmy Cho could ride a wheelchair, but wheelchairs are slow. He could also ride a standup scooter, but he prefers to sit. Thus he combined the front half of an electric scooter (handlebars, front wheel, motor, battery pack) to an old wheelchair (padded seat, handrails, nothing special). But because it’s zippy, he can keep pace with traffic on busy Manhattan avenues.

AdvertisementTaylor Swift is joined onstage by Travis Kelce during The Eras Tour in London. This was especially evident during The 1989 World Tour, which ran for nearly seven months in 2015. Mostly thanks to her talent and partially thanks to her self-spun underdog narrative, she had enjoyed years of headlines like "Taylor Swift: America's Sweetheart" and "Taylor Swift Is the Music Industry." Taylor Swift is joined onstage by Serena Williams, Karlie Kloss, and more during The 1989 World Tour in London. Perhaps bringing Kelce onstage felt as natural to Swift as writing a love song about him.

Cramer's optimistic about the homebuilding sector
  + stars: | 2024-06-24 | by ( Julie Coleman | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +2 min
CNBC's Jim Cramer on Monday reviewed recent earnings from two major homebuilding companies, Lennar and KB Home , saying he feels good about the sector as a whole even though Wall Street favored the latter last week. "Even though Lennar went down and KB Home went up after both reported last week, I'm pretty positive on both stories, and the homebuilders more generally," Cramer said. "While this should theoretically be a tough space if rates stay higher for longer, the housing shortage hasn't gone anywhere." Wall Street seems unsure of how to treat these stocks, Cramer said, as they started the year strong when investors thought several rate cuts were on the horizon. Cramer said he likes KB Home and feels "more sanguine" about Lennar than Wall Street, adding the two are using two different strategies.

CNN geolocated the video to be filmed from Xianqiao village in Guizhou province, neighboring the launch site province of Sichuan to the southeast. Other videos circulating on Chinese social media platforms analyzed by CNN showed multiple angles of the falling debris. A screengrab taken from video shows suspected Chinese rocket debris falling over Xianqiao village, Guizhou Province, China, following a launch. Before each launch, China’s civil aviation authority typically issues a notice to pilots, known as NOTAM, to warn them against the “temporary danger areas” where rocket debris are likely to be falling. In 2002, a boy in northern China was injured when fragments from a satellite launch fell on his village in Shaanxi province.

Low-Earth orbit, a layer of superhighway that wraps around Earth’s thermosphere some 200 to 600 miles above our heads, is newly congested. Yet no one knows how the vast increase in satellites orbiting Earth will affect the atmosphere, and therefore life down below. With the rush to send up more and more satellites, a new study proposes that the hole in the ozone layer, a problem scientists thought they had solved decades ago, could make a comeback. Ever since Sputnik, the first man-made space satellite, was launched in 1957, scientists have thought that when satellites re-enter our atmosphere at the end of their lives, their vaporization has little impact. But new satellites — much more advanced, but also smaller, cheaper and more disposable than previous satellites — have a turnover that resembles fast fashion, said the lead author of the study, José Pedro Ferreira, a doctoral candidate in astronautical engineering at the University of Southern California.

The growing electricity demand from corporate America, particularly Big Tech, and the retirement of coal plants across the U.S. are creating a major opportunity for renewable energy, according to UBS. UBS sees solar and wind supplying 40% and 30% of the power demand, respectively, while natural gas will meet the remaining 30%. At the same time, "there is a straight line of direct incremental demand and financial support for renewables as corporate electricity demand increases through their 100% clean energy or 100% renewable commitments," the analysts said. Overall, solar will grow to 12.5% of electricity generation by 2030, up from less than 6% in 2023, according to UBS estimates. "There is likely a substantial market opportunity to provide reliable electricity generation and direct infrastructure for data centers," the analysts said.
