Yesterday, Mexico and different places in America were in awe as they experienced a total solar eclipse.
The moon completely covered the sun, creating a moment of darkness in the middle of the day. Many people gathered to witness this rare event, which occurs when the moon passes directly between the sun and Earth.
It was a magical and unforgettable sight for all who were lucky enough to witness it.
But what if there were more to this celestial event than meets the eye?🤔

🚑 Scientists from USA have developed an inexpensive electric bandage that speeds up wound healing by 30%.
To activate the bandage, you just need to moisten it, and it starts delivering a weak current that stimulates cells and suppresses bacterial growth.
It's a single-use product, but it’s expected to cost just $1. However, there’s no production timeline yet as clinical trials are still ahead.

Daniel Cabrera, a third-grader in the Philippines, was photographed doing his homework on a street corner because he had nowhere else to go. The image was captured by Joyce Torrefranca, a student in Mandaue City, who posted it to Facebook in 2015.
After the image gained attention, a local news station identified Daniel and his family situation. His mother, Christina, a widow, worked at a nearby restaurant, earning about $1.77 per day. The family had lost their home in a fire and were temporarily living at the restaurant where Christina worked.
Inspired by Daniel's determination to learn, a local politician offered him a scholarship, and his mother received grants to start her own business.

The launch of the Axiom 04 (Ax-4) mission, which includes Indian astronaut Shubhanshu Shukla, has been postponed once again. The mission, initially slated for June 10, and then rescheduled for June 11, at 5:30 PM IST, now awaits a new launch date following the detection of a technical issue during pre-flight preparations.
Both the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) and SpaceX confirmed the reason for the delay. ISRO stated via a post on X that during a seven-second hot test conducted on the launch pad—a procedure to validate the performance of the Falcon 9 booster stage — a liquid oxygen (LOx) leakage was identified in the propulsion bay.

Ever wanted to take a space selfie? Now you can
Imagine a selfie with Earth as the backdrop—not a digitally generated image, but a photograph taken in orbit. This is the concept behind the Space Selfie project, launched by CrunchLabs, an initiative founded by Mark Rober, a former NASA engineer and YouTube content creator.
What is the Space Selfie project?
The project aims to send participants' selfies to space, display them on a satellite-mounted phone, and capture a photo with Earth in the background before sending it back to the participant.
The satellite, named SAT GUS after CrunchLabs' squirrel mascot Phat Gus, is equipped with two Google Pixel phones and an array of cameras, explained Rober in a YouTube video. The satellite is designed to orbit Earth at an altitude of 60 kilometresrs, capturing photos with its expansive solar-powered system.
