CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP) — A private **** ecraft that was supposed to provide a lifeline to NASA's Swift Observatory managed to get close to the sinking telescope and even snap photos two weeks after the rescue was abandoned.
But the three-armed robotic salvager had to turn away because it was low on fuel, according to Katalyst **** e Technologies, which attempted the daring operation.
"We got so close, but so far," Katalyst CEO Ghonhee Lee told The **** ociated Press this week.
Katalyst's Link **** ecraft got within 15 kilometers (9 miles) of Swift on Tuesday, using its sensors to gather data on the doomed telescope for NASA. The rescue effort had already been called off in August because of Link's own troubles in orbit, but the company wanted the practice for future satellite-servicing missions.
Link went into an uncontrollable spin soon after rocketing to Swift's rescue in July. Flight controllers managed to slow the tumble and stabilize the **** ecraft, using up precious fuel. In the end, there was not enough fuel remaining to boost the aging Swift into a higher, longer-lasting orbit so it could continue observing the cosmos.

A massive observatory that scientists have called a "discovery machine" is set to launch toward the cosmos, beginning a journey that could mark a significant shift in our understanding of the universe.
Designed to seek out otherwise invisible and faint ***** e objects, NASA's Nancy Grace Roman ***** e Telescope is expected to lift off aboard a ***** eX Falcon Heavy rocket as soon as 7:26 a.m. ET Sunday from Kennedy ***** e Center in Florida.
Over the next five years, the bus-size telescope's observations could reveal answers to enduring mysteries such as dark energy, which fuels the inexplicable accelerating expansion of the universe, and dark matter, which provides the cosmos with structure but remains unseen. It could allow astronomers to spot previously unseen galaxies and exoplanets, worlds around stars beyond our solar system, as well rogue planets that don't orbit stars at all.

Lucid Group (NASDAQ: LCID) has had a rough year or two and could use some positive news. The electric vehicle (EV) company announced it would delay its Cosmos crossover until at least next year (it was previously scheduled for launch in late 2026). It's still bleeding cash and posted a net loss of $1 billion during the second quarter.
Management is now working on a plan to save cash, including two rounds of layoffs this year alone. The young EV maker went as far as to hire consulting firm AlixPartners to help with a turnaround plan. In a rare moment of good news from the company, it announced the 2027 Gravity GT-S. But is this a development that can move the needle?

Lucid is reviving the 1,070-horsepower drivetrain from its discontinued Dream Edition for the GT-S, which it claims to be America's most powerful three-row crossover, barely surpassing the nearest competitor, Rivian's R1S three-row crossover, which has 1,025 horsepower. It's a lot of power, but Lucid's flaw has never been its ability to create excellent EVs.
The problems with Lucid have been production hiccups, supplier bottlenecks, product delays, and the inability to lower costs to consistently improve its gross margins -- a feat rival Rivian continues to excel at.

By Will Dunham
Aug 25 (Reuters) - NASA is preparing to launch its next flagship ****** e observatory, one that scientists plan to use to investigate some of the universe's biggest mysteries including dark energy and dark matter, while also testing gravity at vast scales and hunting for planets beyond our solar system.
The launch of the Nancy ‌Grace Roman ****** e Telescope, a roughly $4 billion project, is planned for Sunday at NASA's Kennedy ****** e Center in Florida, with the observatory to be lofted into orbit aboard a ‌SpaceX Falcon Heavy rocket. The launch comes nine months ahead of schedule, according to U.S. ****** e agency officials.
Roman is a follow-on to the Hubble ****** e Telescope, launched in 1990, and the James Webb ****** e Telescope, launched in 2021, and has capabilities that can expand on the knowledge gained by those pioneering observatories, both of which continue to operate.
The new telescope's panoramic view of ****** e and its rapid survey speeds offer the opportunity for scientists to study the cosmos as never before, with wide-field surveys examining its structure, composition and evolution.

Lucid Group (NASDAQ: LCID) has always been an intriguing investment opportunity, but it has consistently disappointed investors in several ways.

Aug. 8—PATERSON, N.J. — The Spokane Velocity's USL League One match against the New York Cosmos, which was scheduled for 4 p.m. on Saturday at Hinchliffe Stadium, has been postponed due to travel delays for Spokane, according to USL LeagueOne.com, and will be rescheduled to a date that will be announced at a later time.
This marks the second straight game in which the Velocity's contest has been postponed or delayed. Last week, in Chattanooga, Tennessee, Spokane allowed a goal early in the period against the Chattanooga Red Wolves but the game was delayed later in the half and was postponed due to lightning strikes.
League rules dictate that Spokane's rescheduled match against Chattanooga — which has yet to be announced — will be replayed from the opening kickoff.
Led by Shavon John-Brown's five goals, two ******* ists and 19 chances created, fifth-ranked Spokane (10-2-6) boasts a four-game winning streak across all competition including League One and the USL Cup.
The Velocity will now prepare for their first-ever USL Cup knockout stage match at ONE Spokane Stadium at 6 p.m. Wednesday. Spokane hosts sixth-ranked USL Championship club Colorado Springs Switchbacks FC.

Meghan Markle's latest Instagram post has sparked fresh online debate over copying influencer Nara Smith's content. Some social media users claimed the ****** ss of Sussex's flower-picking video looked very similar to a floral-themed post Smith shared just a few days earlier. This led to widespread comparisons across social media.
The discussion started after Meghan Markle posted a short Instagram story on August 2 of herself picking flowers in a garden and arranging them into a bouquet.
Nara Smith, who has built a massive following with her lifestyle and cooking content, had shared a similar video, days earlier. It was a video documenting her process of picking wildflowers from a hillside she had planted herself.
Wearing one of her signature dresses with red gardening clogs, Smith carried a basket while gathering cosmos, bachelor ****** ons and other blooms before arranging them into a bouquet in her kitchen.
In the video, which has received more than 130,000 views, Smith reflected on watching the flowers grow after planting wildflower seeds. The influencer captioned the Instagram post, "Anytime there's an inconvenience, you'll find me making flower arrangements."

Few things in the universe are as perplexing as dark matter — the invisible and exotic “stuff” that is thought to make up most of the matter in galaxies.
The theory goes like this: To reconcile our current understanding of physics with what we observe in the cosmos, there must be massive amounts of matter that we can’t see. Scientists are sure that this “missing matter” exists because of the gravitational effects it exerts, but detecting it firsthand has eluded scientists, who have had to indirectly infer how dark matter occupies the universe.
