Tennessee Governor Denies Clemency for Death Row Inmate Christa Pike Ahead of Scheduled Execution

SpaceX’s newest orbital workhorse, Starship, launched from Boca Chica, spent about three hours in low Earth orbit, and after dropping 26 new Starlink V3 satellites, ended the mission early. The planned 10‑hour test was truncated by the team, likely to address technical concerns or conserve fuel. The rocket executed a controlled re‑entry and landed in the Pacific Ocean in a dramatic, high‑temperature splashdown. SpaceX continues to develop Starship to ferry up to 100 astronauts or cargo to the Moon, Mars and beyond, marking a pivotal step toward a reusable interplanetary launch system.

Mexico’s northern Pacific coast is preparing for Hurricane Polo, a category‑three storm with winds up to 115 mph that is forecast to make landfall on Monday or Tuesday. The National Hurricane Center warns of heavy rainfall that could trigger dangerous flooding and mudslides in steep terrain. Authorities in Baja California Sur have closed schools, opened shelters and deployed naval and army forces. Residents are stocking supplies as the eye of Polo drifts closer, while the El Niño‑driven warm waters fuel the system.

A week‑long meeting between Donald Trump and Xi Jinping granted only modest outcomes. Both sides announced a new AI dialogue and a brief trade truce, yet neither tackled Taiwan, semiconductor restrictions, or rare‑earth exports. The absence of joint statements and divergent after‑talks suggest persistent wary diplomacy between the United States and China.
