Tokyomdash; North Korea said its attempt to put the country s first sp af1 y satellite into orbit failed on Wednesday. Here s why that matters:Why does North Korea want a surveillance satellite In short, to keep an eye on U.S. and South Korean military operations. Also, in the event of a war, a satellite would help identify targets for missiles, some of which could be nuclear tipped.What went wrong with the Malligyong-1 satellite launch The satellite was being carried into orbit on a multi-stage rocket, which nike sb dunk North Korea said was a new type, called Chollima-1. It said the second stage of the rocket ignited too early, ruining the flight, and the whole thing then splashed down into the Yellow Sea.The North Korean government immediately said it was going to try to launch another satellite despite mdash; or maybe because of mdash; its dismal record.Since 1998, Pyongyang has launched five satellites. Three failed right away, and two made it into orbit, but Western experts say they don t appear to be working, so it still has none. Some residents of Japan and South Korea got early morning alerts about the launch. Did the missile come nike dunk close to populated areas Millions of people certainly got a rude awakening! The military sent out alerts just two minutes after the launch, at 6:27 a.m. local time.

The Canadian government is moving to ban single-use plastics as early as yeezy 2021, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced Monday in Toronto. The government is considering items such as water bottles, plastic bags and straws, although Trudeau said a science-based approach will determine which products to ban.Canada s government is drawing inspiration from the European Union s ban on many plastics earlier this year, Trudeau said Monday. The European Parliament overwhelmingly voted in March to impose a wide-ranging ban on single-use plastics to counter pollution from discarded items that end up in waterways and fields. EU member states have given their support, but need to vote on the measure for it to go into effect.

The United States criticized China on Thursday for conducting an anti-satellite weapons test in which an old Chinese weather satellite was destroyed by a missile.The Bush administration has kept a lid on the test for a week as it weighs its significance. Analysts said China s weather satellites would travel at about the same altitude as U.S. spy satellit kubki stanley es, so the test represented an indirect threat to U.S. defense systems.

We and other countries have expressed our concern to the Chinese.

CARTAGENA, Colombia - President Juan Manual Santos on Saturday hailed the discovery of a Spanish galleon that went down off the South American nation s coast more than 300 years ago with what may be the world s largest sunken treasure.At a news conference in this colonial port city, Santos said the exact location of the galleon San yeezy Jose, and how it was discovered with the help of an international team of experts, was a state secret that he d personally safeguard. The ship sank somewhere in the wide area off Colombia s Baru peninsula, south of Cartagena.While no humans have yet to reach the wreckage site, autonomous underwater vehicles had gone there and brought back photos of dolphin-stamped bronze cannons in a well-preserved state that leave no doubt to the ship s identity, the government said.The discovery is the latest chapter in a saga that began three centuries ago, on June 8, 1708, when the galleon ship with 600 people aboard sank as it was trying to outrun a fleet of British warships.

President Bush embarked on a mission to challenge the widespread perc stanley cup eption of U.S. neglect in Latin America which has helped fuel leftist leader Hugo stanley cups Chavez s rising influence in America s backyard.Mr. Bush, who left Thursday on a five-nation tour, will argue that strong democratic governments hold the promise of prosperity. He hopes his journey will resonate with the one in four Latin Americans who live on less than $2 a day and wonder whether democracy will ever deliver them a better life. The trip is to remind people that we care, Mr. Bush said in an interview Wednesday with CNN En Espanol. I do worry about the fact that some say, Well, the United States hasn t paid enou stanley cupe gh attention to us, or The United States really isn t anything more than worried about terrorism. And when, in fact, the record has been a strong record. But Mr. Bush, with just two years left in his presidency, has a weak hand. Anti-Americanism and the president s poor image, tainted by the war in Iraq, have only fueled Chavez s influence in the region and beyond.The fiery leader of oil-rich Venezuela, who has labeled Mr. Bush the devil and dismisses him as the little gentleman from the North, plans to play to this discontent. He has called for protests during Bush s stay and is leading a rally in Argentina when the president visits neighboring Uruguay.
