  • Artemis II astronauts receive a hero’s welcome back on earth

The Artemis II astronauts received a hero’s welcome on Saturday, as NASA’s Johnson Space Center in Houston organized a ceremony to cheer them on. The four astronauts received loud cheers from fellow NASA staff members as they entered the hangar stage.

The Artemis II crew became the first humans to travel toward the Moon since 1972. Greeting the crowds, Captain Reid Wiseman said, “it’s a special thing to be a human, and it’s a special thing to be on Planet Earth.”

Teams and organizers of Beijing’s upcoming Humanoid Robot Half Marathon will fix technical and safety flaws exposed in a recent test event, and refine their race strategies ahead of the official competition later this month.The test, held from Saturday night to the early hours of Sunday, was run under full-process, all-scenario conditions to simulate the official race environment. Organizers closed off sections of Beijing for the drill, which replicated the official race route, traffic scheduling, equipment coordination, and emergency response protocols.More than 70 teams joined the test, all part of the over 100 squads registered for this year’s event. Nearly 40 percent of registered teams will field autonomous navigation robots, a key technological highlight of this year’s competition.mitv

The NASA spacecraft carrying four astronauts finally splashed down as planned on Friday off the California coast of the United States. The Artemis II capped the US space agency's successful crewed test mission around the Moon which was the first such flyby in more than 50 years. As the astronauts returned to Earth, their spacecraft reached maximum speeds more than 30 times the speed of sound, and also faced searing temperatures around half as hot as the surface of the Sun. It was a key test of their heat shield, which in an earlier trial uncrewed mission had faced complications. US President Donald Trump praised the astronauts for their spectacular trip and he also looked ahead to the eventual goal of sending missions to Mars.mitv
