Blue Origin's Launch Scrubbed: Blue Origin faced a major setback as their second New Glenn rocket launch, carrying NASA's Escapade spacecraft to Mars, was scrubbed due to bad weather, minor equipment issues, and an unexpected cruise ship entering the restricted flight path. The new launch date is set for November 12, with high hopes for a successful mission.
Discovery of TOI2267: Astronomers have confirmed a groundbreaking exoplanet system, TOI2267, located 72 light years away in a binary star system. This marks the first time planets have been found transiting both stars, challenging existing models of planet formation and suggesting that rocky planets might be more common in such systems.
Innovative Space Food: The European Space Agency is testing a new powdered protein called solane, produced from microbes and astronaut urine, to create a sustainable food source for long-duration space missions. This innovative approach aims to recycle waste into nourishment, ensuring self-sufficiency on future explorations.
First Detailed Image of a Star: Astronomers have captured the first detailed image of an individual star outside the Milky Way, a red supergiant named whog64 in the Large Magellanic Cloud. The star's unusual dust cocoon challenges existing models of stellar evolution and raises new questions about massive stars' behavior.
Weather on Venus: A new study has modeled the weather on Venus, revealing slow winds that can lift dust due to the planet's dense atmosphere. This finding has significant implications for future landers, as dust storms could pose a threat to missions like NASA's Da Vinci.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
