A UN resolution tabled by Russia against an arms race in space failed in the UN Security Council on Monday. The draft resolution received seven votes in favour while seven countries, including the US, voted against it. Switzerland abstained. The measure failed as it did not obtain the nine votes necessary to pass it in the powerful 15-nation council. In view of a US resolution against nuclear weapons in space that failed last month due to Russia's veto, US representative Robert Wood accused Moscow of manipulative tactics. The debate at the United Nations follows US reports in February about Ru...

Washington (AFP) - After a nearly two-year hiatus, Blue Origin flew adventurers to space on Sunday, including a former Air Force pilot who was denied the chance to be the United States' first Black astronaut decades ago. It was the first crewed launch for the enterprise owned and founded by Amazon billionaire Jeff Bezos since a rocket mishap in 2022 left rival Virgin Galactic as the sole operator in the fledgling suborbital tourism market. Six people including the sculptor Ed Dwight, who was on track to become NASA's first astronaut of color in the 1960s before being controversially spurned, l...

By Daniel LAWLER Paris (AFP) - Normalement limitées aux latitudes élevées, des aurores boréales et australes ont récemment ébloui un grand nombre de Terriens avec un festival de couleurs dans le ciel nocturne jusqu'au Mexique ou encore le sud de l'Europe et de l'Afrique.

Rasmus Munk has teamed up with Florida-based startup Space Perspective to launch six diners at a time up to the outer atmospheric layer where they will be served a freshly made dinner by the 33-year-old Michelin-starred chef. The missions will take place on Spaceship Neptune and are anticipated to start in late 2025. Munk’s menus will be based on the theme of space exploration, he says. “We want to tell stories through the food,” the chef explains. “We … want to talk and highlight some of the research that’s been done through the last 60 years.” Breaking bread: French bakers take back their ti...

Washington (AFP) - Anyone who missed the dazzling auroras dancing across night skies earlier this weekend will get another chance Sunday evening, as the powerful geomagnetic storm hitting the Earth is expected to intensify yet again. "Several intense Coronal Mass Ejections are still anticipated to reach the Earth's outer atmosphere by later today," the US National Weather Service said. Those ejections -- expulsions of plasma and magnetic fields from the Sun, known as CMEs -- have since Friday produced spectacular celestial shows across swaths of the Earth, far from the extreme latitudes where...
