China says its uncrewed craft has successfully landed on the far side of the Moon - an unexplored place almost no-one tries to go. The Chang'e 6 touched down in the South Pole-Aitken Basin at 06:23 Beijing time on Sunday morning (22:23 GMT Saturday), the China National Space Administration (CNSA) said. Launched on 3 May, the mission aims to collect precious rock and soil from this region for the first time in history.

Representative Adam Schiff (D-CA) said Sunday on CNN’s “State of the Union” that New York Judge Juan Merchan should consider former President Donald Trump’s comments about being jailed while sentencing. Sunday on Fox News Channel’s “Fox & Friends Weekend,” Trump said, “I think it would be tough for the public to take, you know at a certain point, there’s a breaking point.” Guest host Kasie Hunt said, “Considering that the sentencing is likely to occur, just days before the start of the convention and months before he’s to be the Republican nominee in November do you think it would be...

Human activities affect the Earth’s climate through modifying the composition of the atmosphere, which then creates radiative forcing that drives climate change. The warming effect of anthropogenic greenhouse gases has been partially balanced by the cooling effect of anthropogenic aerosols. In 2020, fuel regulations abruptly reduced the emission of sulfur dioxide from international shipping by about 80% and created an inadvertent geoengineering termination shock with global impact. Here we estimate the regulation leads to a radiative forcing of Wm−2 averaged over the global ocean. The amount of radiative forcing could lead to a doubling (or more) of the warming rate...

One of the best-known grocery chains in the Northeast announced it's closing an unspecified amount of stores. Yet another business with ties to New York is closing multiple locations.

Not only that, Freihofer's bakery shut its doors for good after 140 years, including its Verona location. And, just yesterday, BNY Mellon announced it's shuttering its Oriskany Business Park location. These local closures come as...

Ex-Trump attorney Michael Cohen admitted during a fiery cross-examination in Donald Trump’s criminal trial he “stole” $30,000 from the Trump Organization after he was given funds to pay a tech firm—but although Trump’s lawyers are touting the admission, Cohen likely will not face charges, multiple New York criminal defense attorneys told Forbes. Cohen admitted he held on to $30,000 from $50,000 he was supposed to use to pay a tech company called Red Finch on behalf of Trump—an admission Trump’s defense attorneys are hoping will harm his credibility before the jury, as Cohen is a key witness in the trial...

President Donald Trump is set to be sentenced on July 11, four days before the GOP convention, and there's every indication that crooked Judge Merchan will impose jail time, as much as one year. Why not declare Trump the official nominee now? Hold a virtual nominating process with the chairman of each state delegation, then follow up in Milwaukee on July 15th for a ceremonial celebration. Why wait?
