A private lunar lander from Japan is closing in on the moon, aiming for a touchdown in the unexplored far north with a mini rover.

The moon landing attempt by Tokyo-based company ispace on Friday Japan time is the latest entry in the rapidly expanding commercial lunar rush.

The encore comes two years after the company’s first moonshot ended in a crash landing, giving rise to the name Resilience for its successor lander. Resilience holds a rover with a shovel to gather lunar dirt as well as a Swedish artist’s toy-size red housethat will be lowered onto the moon’s dusty surface.

Long the province of governments, the moon became a target of private outfits in 2019, with more flops than wins along the way.

The US president has ordered an investigation to examine whether unelected aides effectively governed during his predecessor’s term

US President Donald Trump has ordered a sweeping investigation into his predecessor’s administration, directing the Department of Justice to examine whether unelected aides effectively governed the country during Joe Biden’s presidency.

The probe into Biden’s final acts in office will scrutinize the use of autopen signatures on official documents, including the commutation of 37 death sentences and pardons granted to family members and political allies, according to an executive directive published by the White House on Wednesday.

“Given clear indications that President Biden lacked the capacity to exercise his Presidential authority, if his advisors secretly used the mechanical signature pen to conceal this incapacity, while taking radical executive actions all in his name, that would constitute an unconstitutional wielding of the power of the Presidency,” Trump’s order stated.

The number of newborns in Japan is decreasing faster than projected, with the number of annual births falling to another record low last year, according to government data released Wednesday.

The health ministry said 686,061 babies were born in Japan in 2024, a drop of 5.7% on the previous year and the first time the number of newborns fell below 700,000 since records began in 1899. It’s the 16th straight year of decline.

It’s about one-quarter of the peak of 2.7 million births in 1949 during the postwar baby boom.

The data in a country of rapidly aging and shrinking population adds to concern about the sustainability of the economy and national security at a time it seeks to increase defense spending.

President Vladimir Putin informed his US counterpart that Moscow will respond to Ukrainian attacks on Russian strategic airbases

The US embassy in Kiev has advised Americans to heed air-raid sirens and shelter appropriately, warning of “a continued risk of significant air attacks,” in a new security alert issued on Wednesday.

Russian President Vladimir Putin “did say, and very strongly, that he will have to respond” to recent Ukrainian attacks on airfields hosting Russian strategic bombers, US President Donald Trump wrote on Truth Social on Wednesday evening, revealing details of their unannounced conversation that day.

The US State Department issued the security alert just hours earlier, advising Americans currently in Ukraine to “identify shelter locations in advance” and to “keep reserves of water, food, and medication.”
