Science and technology news today spans the experimental to the deeply immediate. NASA has named the four astronauts for Artemis III, a mission that will rehearse rendezvous and docking in low Earth orbit with commercial lunar landers from SpaceX and Blue Origin, marking another step in the long return-to-the-Moon campaign after Artemis II’s headline-grabbing lunar flyby. On Earth, the focus is far more urgent in the Philippines, where rescuers are still combing through damaged buildings after a major earthquake killed at least 37 people and displaced tens of thousands, a stark reminder of the risks along the Pacific Ring of Fire. Elsewhere, innovation moved through quieter channels: Fireaway’s Stat-X fire suppression system won key EU and UK marine certifications, and PLC Resources launched an airborne geophysical survey over its Abbotts North gold project in Western Australia as it awaits early drilling results from Rochefort.
