- Chinese Rocket Failure: Galactic Energy's Ceres 1 rocket faced a setback with its second-ever launch failure, as the upper stage shut down prematurely, resulting in the loss of three satellites. The company is investigating the cause while maintaining a respectable success rate of over 90% across 22 missions.
- Black Hole Mystery Solved: Astronomers have unraveled the enigma of an "impossible" black hole merger that produced a black hole within the upper stellar mass gap. New simulations incorporating magnetic fields revealed that material was ejected before the merger, allowing the resulting black hole to fit into this previously unexplained range.
- Rocket Lab's Neutron Delay: Rocket Lab has postponed the first launch of its Neutron rocket to 2026 to ensure a successful debut. The decision reflects a commitment to thorough testing over adhering to an aggressive schedule, emphasizing the importance of a reliable first flight for their next-generation reusable rocket.
- Filming in Space: The upcoming romantic comedy "I See You" aims to be the first western film to shoot scenes in low Earth orbit, with former NASA astronaut Scott Kelly advising the project. This ambitious endeavor follows the Russian film "The Challenge," which was the first feature film with scenes shot in space.
- Asteroid Monitoring: NASA is tracking asteroid 2024 YR4, which poses no threat to Earth but has a small chance of impacting the Moon in 2032. This potential impact presents a unique opportunity for scientific observation, allowing researchers to study lunar surface composition and the physics of high-velocity impacts.

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.
