NASA has taken aim at China after debris from the country’s out-of-control rocket landed in the Indian Ocean over the weekend.

NASA says China failed to “meet responsible standards” during their rocket launch, and “nations must minimise risks to people and property on Earth” when it comes to the re-entry of space objects.

The rocket was launched on April 29, carrying a piece of a new Chinese space station.

After running out of fuel, the spacecraft was left to hurtle through the atmosphere before coming crashing back down to earth and landing in the ocean.

NASA went onto say that “China is failing to meet responsible standards regarding their space debris.”

Analysts forecast $500 billion AI investment by 2026, transforming corporate spending priorities and enhancing economic productivity.

Analysts predict that artificial intelligence companies could invest over $500 billion in 2026, signaling a major shift in corporate spending priorities. This surge in capital allocation comes as businesses look to harness AI to drive growth and efficiency across multiple sectors.

Following strong third-quarter earnings, overall capital spending estimates for 2026 have been revised upward. However, investors are becoming more selective, focusing on companies that can clearly demonstrate revenue benefits from their AI investments, separating hype from tangible results.

AI adoption is expected to boost economic productivity, with significant investment already flowing into AI infrastructure such as semiconductors and data centres. The coming year could redefine how companies leverage technology to gain a competitive edge.
