Williams Airlines Boeing SpaceX stage Department International NASA's stuck astronauts, Butch Wilmore and Sunita Williams, set to return as new crew launches to ISS

NASA astronauts stranded in space launched to the International Space Station on Friday evening, setting the stage for their colleagues' return after nine months. SpaceX must deliver this replacement team before Butch Wilmore and Sunita Williams can depart. The new crew is expected to arrive late Saturday night. To ensure proper handover of space station operations, NASA requires an overlap period between the crews. This arrangement would enable Wilmore and Williams to depart next week and land off Florida's coast, subject to weather conditions. Astronauts who arrived on a SpaceX rescue mission in September will accompany the pair back to Earth, using two seats previously allocated for their return journey. The fresh crew, launching from NASA's Kennedy Space Center, comprises NASA astronauts Anne McClain and Nichole Ayers (both military pilots), alongside Japanese astronaut Takuya Onishi and Russian cosmonaut Kirill Peskov (both former airline pilots). They will undertake a standard six-month mission after facilitating Wilmore and Williams' departure.

Reuters President country voice social reports politician Voice of America is ending contracts with big houses like AP, Reuters, AFP

US government agency that runs the Voice of America has moved to terminate contracts with The Associated Press, Reuters and Agence France-Presse, and told its journalists Friday to stop using material from the wire services, as per a report. Kari Lake, the former broadcaster turned Republican politician who was selected by President Donald Trump to run VOA, estimated the move would save $53 million, AP reported. The new administration has quickly asserted its authority at VOA, which has delivered news from an American perspective to countries across the world. While awaiting official approval to take over, Lake was brought on as special adviser at the U.S. Agency for Global Media, which oversees VOA and sister organizations like Radio Free Europe. She announced via social media on Thursday that she was ending the «expensive and unnecessary contracts» with the wire services. «We should not be paying outside news organizations to tell us what the news is,» said Lake, who ran unsuccessfully for Arizona governor. «With a nearly billion-dollar budget, we should be producing news ourselves. And if that's not possible, the American taxpayer should demand to know why.»

markets COST economy wellness Trade President social Commodities navigate Trump trade turbulence

global commodity markets as they navigate the mounting challenges posed by US President Donald Trump's erratic and inconsistent trade policies. While the media focus on each headline-grabbing announcement and social media post about new and retaliatory tariffs from the US leader and his administration, commodity markets are busy doing what they have done so well in the past, adapting to rapidly changing circumstances. For commodities it's important to make distinctions between those already being affected by Trump's trade policies, those likely to be in the future, and those unlikely to suffer direct impact, but which might feel second-round effects from a slowing world economy. The first group includes steel and aluminium, with Trump's 25% tariffs on all imports of the metals having started. The main impact is likely to be price increases for steel and aluminium in the United States, as domestic producers have limited scope to boost output significantly.

That compares to an about 9 per cent drop in the S&P 500, which has also shed $4 trillion in market value from record highs last month, Reuters reported. Trump's erratic pronouncement on tariffs and moves to slash federal government spending have challenged assumptions about the appeal of U.S.
