NASA astronauts Christina H Koch and Jessica Meir will make history this morning, as they take part in the first ever spacewalk in the agency’s history featuring only women. The two astronauts will be venturing outside of the International Space Station in order to effect a repair on a failed power controller for the station, with coverage beginning at 6:30 AM ET (3:30 AM PT) via the livestream above, and Koch and Meir set to leave the station’s airlock at 7:50 AM ET (4:50 AM PT). This historic event is happening seven months after its original intended target date, after that attempt had to be scrubbed because the ISS was missing a medium-sized spacesuit that one of the two woman would need.

  • Loneliness isn't only a teen or adult problem. Little kids feel it, too.
    Mashable, Saturday - 05/04/2024 - 05:00 AM

    To be human is to be lonely at some point in life, but there's an important caveat: We typically think of isolation and loneliness as an adult or teen mental health experience, not one that happens to young children.
