India lands a spacecraft near the moon’s south pole, a first for the world as it joins elite club
NEW DELHI (AP) — India became the first country to land a spacecraft near the moon’s south pole on Wednesday — a historic voyage to uncharted territory that scientists believe could hold vital reserves of frozen water, and a technological triumph for the world’s most populous nation.After a failed attempt to land on the moon in 2019, India now joins the United States, the Soviet Union and China as only the fourth country to achieve this milestone. A lander with a rover inside touched down on the lunar surface at 6:04 p.m. local time, sparking celebrations across India, including in the southern Indian city of Bengaluru, where space scientists watching the landing erupted in cheers and applause.

They’re gonna do everything they can because this is all political, and they want to make the case that Democratic-led cities are not capable of living up to the values that we have," Cristina Pacione-Zayas, deputy chief of staff for Mayor Brandon Johnson, said Monday. The convention is slated for next August.Pacione-Zayas said Republicans want to "topple our operation" and prove Democrats are "incompetent."The city is already struggling to care for thousands of illegal immigrants, Fox 32 Chicago reported:Over the last week alone, the number of new arrivals sleeping on the floors of Chicago police stations has increased 6% — to 1,100 — even though Johnson has made it a priority to "decompress" police stations. Another 170 new arrivals have taken up residence at O’Hare International Airport.With 15 shelters housing 6,360 new arrivals, Chicago already spends upward of $20 million per month to house, feed, clothe and care for migrants. The $51 million in emergency funding approved by a divided City Council on May 31 carried the city only through June 30.
