In the past six months, satellites in SpaceX’s Starlink megaconstellation performed nearly 50,000 collision-avoidance maneuvers, double the number from the previous half-year. According to SpaceX’s latest Semiannual Constellation Status Report, each Starlink satellite executed its thrusters an average of 14 times to avoid collisions with other satellites, spacecraft, and space debris. The constellation grew from about 5,100 to 6,200 satellites during this period. SpaceX also lowered its collision-avoidance threshold to one in a million, significantly more stringent than the industry standard, Space.com has reported. read more: https://www.space.com/spacex-starlink-50000-collision-avoidance-maneuvers-space-safety Links for B.C.

The Department of Homeland Security plans to deploy four-legged robots, similar to Boston Dynamics’ creations, in raids on suspects. These robots, equipped with capabilities to jam networks, disable devices, and provide video and audio feedback, will act as “walking denial of service attacks” to enhance tactical operations. The robots, such as the NEO model, can disable “Internet of Things” devices like cameras, which is particularly useful after a recent incident where a suspect used a Ring doorbell camera to evade officers and attack them. The robots can also execute commands to manipulate the environment, such as turning off lights or activating HVAC systems, which could potentially cause hazards like fires or explosions, Boing Boing has reported. read more: https://boingboing.net/2024/07/24/department-of-homeland-security-to-use-robot-dogs-in-raids.html Links for B.C.

Minnesota is set to enter a new era of transportation with the implementation of the “Jetsons law” on August 1. This legislation officially defines a “roadable aircraft” as a vehicle capable of both flying and driving on public highways. The law streamlines the registration process for these dual-purpose vehicles, allowing them to use tail numbers instead of traditional license plates. While on the road, these flying cars will be regulated like regular vehicles, but must adhere to Federal Aviation Administration rules when in flight. They are prohibited from taking off directly from roads. Minnesota is the second state to adopt such regulations, following New Hampshire, the U.S. Sun has reported. read more: https://www.the-sun.com/motors/12007579/jetsons-law-flying-cars-minnesota-roads/ Links for B.C.

On Wednesday, the U.S. Department of Justice revealed the finalized plea deal with Boeing, which involves the company pleading guilty to a felony charge of defrauding the government. Boeing will pay a $243.6 million fine and admitted to misleading the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) regarding the 737 Max plane’s passenger certification. The plea deal, pending a federal judge’s approval, also requires Boeing’s board to meet with crash victims’ families within four months and invest at least $455 million into safety and compliance programs. Critics, including victims’ families, have condemned the deal as too lenient compared to the $24.8 billion in damages they sought. Boeing had already paid part of the fine in a previous 2021 agreement, CNN has reported. read more: https://www.cnn.com/2024/07/24/business/boeing-doj-plea-deal/index.html Links for B.C.

Yellowstone National Park has closed Biscuit Basin for the rest of the 2024 season following a hydrothermal explosion on Tuesday morning. The blast, which occurred around 10 a.m., launched steam and debris into the air but did not result in any injuries. Video footage captured visitors running from the explosion, which was caused by water rapidly turning to steam in the shallow hydrothermal system beneath Black Diamond Pool. The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) indicated that further small explosions in the area are possible due to recent changes in the hydrothermal plumbing system. Although the Grand Loop Road and other thermal basins remain open, the park has taken precautionary measures by closing Biscuit Basin. The explosion sent geyser water and debris hundreds of feet into the air, with grapefruit-sized rocks found far from the site, and destroyed a boardwalk, NBC News has reported. read more: https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/yellowstone-closes-biscuit-basin-season-hydrothermal-explosion-rcna163564 Links for B.C.

FBI Director Christopher Wray questioned whether Donald Trump was hit by a bullet or shrapnel during the assassination attempt at a Pennsylvania rally. Speaking to Congress, Wray addressed security failures that allowed gunman Thomas Matthew Crooks to kill firefighter Corey Comperatore and injure two others, including Trump. Trump described the incident, recalling the sound of bullets and insisting he was grazed by one. Initial reports of shattered glass were debunked as the teleprompters were intact. Wray revealed Crooks had researched President Kennedy’s assassination a week before, indicating premeditation. The FBI is investigating the attack as domestic terrorism but has struggled to uncover Crooks’ motive, the Daily Mail has reported. read more: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13669813/FBI-director-Christopher-Wray-doubt-Trump-SHOT-assassination-attempt.html Links for B.C.

Relentless rain drenched the northern Philippines, causing flooding in Manila and landslides in mountainous areas as Typhoon Gaemi intensified the seasonal monsoon. In the densely populated capital, rescuers were deployed to evacuate residents from low-lying homes as streets turned into rivers.

New Zealand Prime Minister Christopher Luxon apologized and promised reforms after a public inquiry revealed that around 200,000 children, young people, and vulnerable adults were abused in state and religious care over the past 70 years. The report, covering 1950 to 2019, found that nearly one in three individuals in care experienced some form of abuse, potentially leading to billions in compensation claims. Luxon expressed regret, calling it a “dark and sorrowful day” and vowed to improve. An official apology is set for November 12. Survivors and supporters filled the public gallery as the report was debated in parliament, with many singing an Indigenous Maori song about love and unity after Luxon spoke. The Royal Commission of Inquiry heard from over 2,300 survivors and documented severe abuses, including rape, sterilization, and electric shocks, particularly prevalent in the 1970s, Reuters has reported. read more: https://www.reuters.com/world/asia-pacific/new-zealand-apologise-after-enquiry-finds-200000-children-vulnerable-adults-2024-07-24/ Links for B.C.
