The Space Agency will be taking a woman and a black man on the lunar mission – a first for NASA

After a 50-year hiatus, NASA is going back to the moon.

U.S. Space Agency NASA has named the four astronauts who will take humanity back to the lunar surface.

Christina Koch will become the first woman astronaut ever assigned to a lunar mission.

She holds the record for longest continuous time in space by a woman, of 328 days.

Victor Glover will be the first black astronaut to take part in a moon mission.

All the previous crewed missions to the Moon were made by white men.

They will join Reid Wiseman and Jeremy Hansen to fly a capsule around the Moon late next year or early in 2025.

The astronauts won’t land on the Moon, but their mission will pave the way for a touchdown by a subsequent crew.

They will now begin a period of intense training to get themselves ready.

The newly-named astronauts will climb into Orion for Artemis II and a journey to and from the Moon that’s likely to take about 10 days.

NASA doesn’t yet have a system capable of taking astronauts down to the lunar surface.

This is being developed by Elon Musk’s SpaceX company. Called Starship, the vehicle is due to start flight testing in the next few weeks.

Mark Carney’s Liberals projected to win Canadian election, promising economic reform and a robust stance against Trump.

In Short

Canadians are likely to re-elect Prime Minister Mark Carney and the Liberal Party, aiming to tackle economic challenges and U.S. relations.

Carney’s leadership has gained voter support, positioning him against Conservative rhetoric and focusing on strengthening Canada’s economy and trade ties.

Canadians are projected to retain the Liberal Party under Prime Minister Mark Carney in the recent national elections.

Carney, a former central banker, is expected to address economic challenges and respond to U.S. President Donald Trump’s claims about Canada’s economy.

The Liberals aim for a fourth term, although it is uncertain if they will secure a majority. Carney took over as Prime Minister following Justin Trudeau’s resignation earlier this year.

The Conservatives were leading by over 20 points in January but the political landscape shifted after Trump’s return. Carney positioned himself as the candidate capable of managing relationships with the U.S. and rebuilding Canada’s economy, which heavily depends on American demand.

Leadership skills

Polling data indicated a turning tide for the Liberals, as voters appreciated Carney’s leadership skills. After a conversation with Trump, Carney mentioned plans to discuss a new economic and security agreement post-election.

He plans to increase military investment while maintaining Canadian sovereignty on key issues like resources and language laws.

Carney has emphasised the need to enhance trade ties with Europe and Asia, aiming to reduce barriers within Canada. With his background in finance during critical periods, he aims to bring confidence back to the economy through tax reforms and targeted spending.

Pierre Poilievre’s Conservative rhetoric reportedly alienated some voters, amplifying support for Carney as the viable choice against Trump’s influence.
