Back from the moon: Artemis astronauts safely return to Earth

After 9 days and 21 hours, NASA’s Artemis astronauts safely returned to Earth late Friday, April 10, splashing down in the ocean after completing the latest phase of the agency’s renewed push toward the moon. The crew traveled aboard the Orion capsule (that they dubbed “Integrity”), which reentered Earth’s atmosphere before deploying parachutes and landing in a designated recovery zone, where teams quickly moved in to retrieve both the spacecraft and its passengers. NASA confirmed the astronauts were in good condition following the landing. [NOTE: This video includes the complete reentry footage.

In a breathtaking finale to one of the most ambitious missions in modern spaceflight, NASA’s Artemis II crew has safely returned to Earth, marking a triumphant end to their historic journey around the Moon.

Bird Feeding Can Harm Some Species: 6 Ways To Do It Safely

Bird Feeding Can Harm Some Species: 6 Ways To Do It Safely

Birdfeeding feels like a pretty noble thing. The UK’s bird population has, after all, declined by almost a fifth since the ’70s, and it’s true that many sadly starve in the barren, colder months. But the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds (RSPB) said that birdfeeding isn’t as straightforwardly good for all species as you might hope. Following the results from this year’s The Big Garden Birdwatch, the charity saw that greenfinch populations seem to have declined by 67% since the programme began in 1979. They are now on the UK Red List in the Birds of Conservation Concern. One of the reasons could be partly influenced by your birdfeeders, they said. Why might bird feeders hurt some bird species? Greenfinch populations are shrinking for many reasons, but one of the biggest ones is trichomonosis, a disease that spreads easily from bird to bird at feeders. Speaking to HuffPost UK, an RSPB spokesperson said: “Our research shows that large numbers of birds congregating around feeders can increase the chances of disease transmission.” This is …

U.S. forces safely rescued the second F-15E crew member of a two-seat fighter jet that went down over Iran on Friday, two U.S. officials said late Saturday.

President Donald Trump said the rescue was “an Easter miracle” in a text message to NBC News and praised U.S. forces for their “strong, decisive” actions. “The Iranians thought they had him, but it wasn’t even close,” he said. “And remember, we got two, but couldn’t talk about the first in that it would have highlighted that there was a second.” The U.S. officials said late Saturday that the second airman was pulled from Iran safely, with rescue crews also out of harm’s way. Trump said in a separate post on Truth Social that the airman was “seriously wounded,” adding that he is a “highly respected Colonel.” A news conference will take place Monday afternoon, he added. The plane’s pilot was located shortly after the crash. A senior Trump administration official told NBC …
