Chinese lunar probe finds water in moon samples
A study in Nature Astronomy reveals that China’s Chang’e-5 lunar probe detected trace amounts of water in moon soil samples.
These findings, from a higher lunar latitude, suggest water may persist on the moon as hydrated salts.
The Chang’e-5 mission, which returned to Earth in 2020, was the first lunar sample collection in 40 years, following the Chang’e-4’s 2019 landing on the far side of the moon, Phys.org has reported.

China wants 50 countries involved in its ILRS moon base
China is seeking collaboration with 50 countries for its International Lunar Research Station (ILRS) program, aiming to build a lunar base at the south pole.
Wu Weiren, chief designer of China’s lunar exploration program, announced that China is open to international partners from both emerging and established nations.
This initiative follows NASA’s recent cancellation of its VIPER lunar rover mission, which was intended to search for ice at the moon’s south pole.
China plans to establish a basic ILRS by 2035 and an extended version by 2045, Space News has reported.

Physicists Just Created an Element Using a Particle Beam
Scientists at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory have successfully created livermorium (element 116) using a titanium particle beam for the first time.
This breakthrough brings researchers closer to reaching the “island of stability,” a theoretical point where superheavy elements might be more stable and easier to study.
Reiner Kruecken, director of nuclear science at the lab, noted that while producing element 120 will be more challenging, the success with livermorium makes it seem feasible, Gizmodo has reported.

U.S. Home Prices Hit Record in June for Second Consecutive Month
In June, home prices reached a record high of $426,900, marking a 4.1% increase from the previous year. This peak occurred amid a persistent housing slump characterized by reduced buyer activity.
Sales of previously occupied U.S. homes fell for the fourth consecutive month, declining 5.4% from May to an annualized rate of 3.89 million.
This drop in sales also represented a 5.4% decrease compared to June 2023 and was below economists’ expectations of 3.99 million annualized sales.
At the end of June, there were approximately 1.32 million unsold homes, up 3.1% from May and 23% higher than the previous year.
This resulted in a 4.1-month supply of homes, indicating a slight increase from a more balanced market where a 4- to 5-month supply is typical, CBS News has reported.

Lula raises alarm over Maduro’s ‘bloodbath’ warning to Venezuela
Brazil’s President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva has urged Venezuela’s government to respect the results of the upcoming election, expressing concern over Nicolás Maduro’s warnings of a “bloodbath” if he loses.
Maduro, who is seeking a third term, is trailing in polls against opposition candidate Edmundo González.
Lula, who has historically avoided criticizing Maduro, emphasized the need for a fair electoral process and announced that former foreign minister Celso Amorim will observe the election alongside members of the Brazilian electoral court.
Lula also praised U.S. President Joe Biden’s decision to step down from the presidential race, expressing a desire to maintain strong U.S.-Brazil relations regardless of the election outcome, The Guardian has reported.

Bipartisan commission to study Trump assassination attempt teed up for House vote
The House of Representatives is set to vote this week on a bipartisan commission to investigate the attempted assassination of former President Trump at a July 13 rally in Butler, Pennsylvania.
The proposed panel, consisting of five Democrats and six Republicans, aims to examine the incident, where a 20-year-old gunman killed one person and injured two others, with Trump being shot in the ear.
The investigation will focus on the U.S. Secret Service’s handling of the situation.
House Speaker Mike Johnson supports the commission and its subpoena power, while Rep. Mike Kelly, who represents the district of the rally, is leading the bill.
The vote will bypass normal procedures, requiring a two-thirds majority for passage, Fox News has reported.

220,000 Fentanyl Pills Discovered in Colorado After High-Speed Chase
Police in western Colorado seized 48 pounds (about 220,000 pills) of fentanyl following a high-speed chase on Friday.
The incident began around 6:20 a.m. near Fruita when a Mesa County Sheriff’s deputy attempted a traffic stop, and the driver, later identified as 21-year-old Levyn Angulo-Ayala, fled.
The chase was initially halted for safety reasons but resumed when a Colorado State Patrol trooper deployed stop sticks on Interstate 70.
Despite flattened tires, the vehicle continued until stopping near West Pabor Avenue, where Angulo-Ayala fled on foot but soon surrendered, Breitbart News has reported.

Former Philadelphia police officer sentenced in shooting death of a 12-year-old boy
Former Philadelphia police officer Edsaul Mendoza, who pleaded guilty to third-degree murder for the fatal shooting of 12-year-old Thomas “T.J.” Siderio, was sentenced to 8 to 20 years in prison.
Mendoza, who was fired shortly after the 2022 incident, expressed sorrow and regret before sentencing.
Initially charged with first- and third-degree murder and voluntary manslaughter, he accepted a plea deal in April.
Prosecutors revealed that Siderio was unarmed and on the ground when Mendoza shot him in the back, despite the boy having previously fired at an unmarked police car, injuring an officer.
Surveillance footage contradicted Mendoza’s account of the events, CNN has reported.

Secret Service Director resigns
U.S. Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle resigned on Tuesday following intense criticism over the agency’s failure to prevent an assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump at a Pennsylvania rally.
Despite defending her qualifications at a House committee hearing, Cheatle faced backlash for refusing to address security lapses that allowed a gunman to target Trump.
Cheatle’s resignation letter acknowledged the agency’s failure on July 13 and her responsibility.
Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas appointed Deputy Director Ronald Rowe as acting director.
President Biden praised Cheatle’s service and promised to appoint a new director soon, CNBC has reported.

Major airport forced to close after Mount Etna volcanic eruption
Flights to and from Catania, a city in eastern Sicily, were halted on Tuesday due to an eruption from Mount Etna, one of the world’s most active volcanoes.
The eruption, which spewed hot ash and lava, led to the airport’s closure earlier this month as well.
As a major hub in eastern Sicily, Catania’s airport typically handles more arrivals than Palermo, the island’s capital.
Authorities announced the suspension of all flights, causing cancellations and rerouting to other airports, primarily Palermo, the Independent has reported.

“Cocaine sharks”: Predators off coast of Brazil test positive for drug, scientists say
Marine biologists have discovered cocaine in sharpnose sharks off the coast of Rio de Janeiro, marking the first instance of the drug being found in free-ranging predators.
Thirteen sharks were tested, revealing high levels of cocaine and benzoylecgonine, with female sharks showing higher concentrations in their muscles than males.
The study, dubbed “Cocaine Shark,” suggests a potential link between a shark’s size and its ability to metabolize cocaine, though further research is needed.
Experts propose several theories on how cocaine enters the water, including illegal drug labs, excrement from drug users, or cocaine lost at sea.
The presence of these substances in aquatic environments has been previously documented in drainage systems and rivers, CBS News has reported.

The day before, UAE proposals were outlined by envoy Lana Nusseibeh, suggesting a temporary international mission in Gaza to address humanitarian needs, establish law and order, and prepare for governance.
The UAE expressed readiness to participate, provided the mission is invited by the Palestinian Authority, which must undergo reforms and appoint an empowered prime minister.
The Israeli government would need to involve the Palestinian Authority and agree to a two-state solution-based political process, Axios has reported.

China plans 30-satellite information superhighway to connect Earth, moon
China is planning to dominate cislunar space with a new satellite network designed to enhance communication, navigation, and monitoring between Earth and the moon.
Developed by researchers at the China Academy of Space Technology (CAST) and the Beijing Institute of Spacecraft System Engineering, the network aims to provide real-time services for global users, enabling simultaneous communication for up to 20 travelers through images, audio, or video.
It will also offer precise positioning, navigation, and timing (PNT) for lunar missions and track targets as small as one meter in cislunar space, Interesting Engineering has reported.

Mercury has an 11-mile thick diamond layer between its core and mantle
A recent study published in Nature Communications suggests that Mercury, the smallest planet in the solar system, has a thick diamond layer at its core-mantle boundary, up to 18 kilometers (11 miles) thick.
This finding, from scientists in China and Belgium, challenges previous assumptions that graphite was the only stable form of carbon on Mercury.
The diamond layer likely formed from the crystallization of Mercury’s carbon-rich magma ocean, contributing to our understanding of planetary differentiation and internal layering processes, Tech Spot has reported.
