Russia confirmed it successfully took down one of its own Soviet-era satellites in its first demonstration of military capability to strike space targets with a missile from Earth, and it hit back at U.S. officials who said the test posed a threat to the International Space Station crew.On Monday, U.S. Secretary of State Anthony Blinken said Russia had recklessly conducted a destructive test of a direct-ascent anti-satellite missile against one of its own satellite air force one s.

The debris from the Russian test forced the current ISS crew to seek shelter in their return spacecraft as the station was passing through the cloud of debris.

Richard Branson s Virgin Orbit is letting go of almost its entire work force with the satellite launch company finding it difficult to secure funding three months after a failed mission.The company, headquartered in Long Beach, California, will cut 675 jobs, about 85% of its workforce, according to a Friday filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.Earlier this month, Virgin Orbit said that it waspausing all operations amid reports that the company would furlough most of its staff. At the time the company confirmed that it was putting all work on hold, but didn t say for how long.In January, a mission by Virgin Orbit to launch the first satellites into orbit from Europe failed after a rocket s upper stage prematurely shut down.

CBS/AP BEIRUT - Syria s president promised to do all he can to ensure U.N. envoy Kofi Annan s peace plan for his country succeeds but demanded that Annan secure a commitment from his opponents to halt violence even as rebels carried out a string of bold attacks, killing two army colonels and kidnapping a high-ranking pilot.Bashar Assad s condition of an express promise from the opposition to stop attacks could complicate Annan s attempts to bring an end to more than a year of violence that the U.N. says has killed more than 9,000 people.The opposition has cautiously welcomed Annan s six-poin stanley becher t plan, which calls for Assad s regime to implement a cease-fire.

The United Nations and other coalition countries are being invited to attend as observers, Wolfowitz said.

Delivering a painful defeat to the Trump administration s most sweeping effort to single-handedly overhaul the asylum system without Congress, a federal judge on Wednesday blocked a rule that made most migrants from Central America and other countries ineligible for asylum at the U.S.-Mexico border.Judge Jon Tigar of the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California agreed to issue a temporary injunction halting the policy while he reviews the merits of a legal challenge spearheaded by the American Civil Liberties Union ACLU .In his order, Tigar seemed to agree with the concerns raised by the plaintiffs that po air max 98 licy could result in the U.S. government sending asylum seekers back to dangerous circumstances just because they did not seek protection in countries like Mexico.

The Bush administration is weighing responses to a possible North Korean missile test that include attempting to shoot it down in flight over the Pacific, defense officials told The Associated Press on Tuesday.Because North Korea is secretive about its missile operations, U.S. officials say they must consider the possibility that an anticipated test would turn out to be something else, such as a space launch or even an attack. Thus, the Pentagon is considering the possibility of attempting an interception, two defense officials said, even though it would be unprecedented and is not considered the likeliest scenario.The officials agreed to discuss the matter only on condition of anonymity because of its political sensitivity.The first sign of a North Korean launch would come from an infrared satellite that would detect the heat of the missile s rocket plume as it lifted off the pad, CBS News national security correspondent David Martin reports.

Circumstances have changed, he said, apparently referring to this week s announcement of Princess Kiko s pregnancy, which raised the possibility of a new male heir to the Chrysanthemum Throne.The news has taken the steam out of Koizumi s drive to let empresses reign to avert a succession crisis in the royal family. No male heir to the throne has been born since 1965.Koizumi, who had earlier called for quick approval of the law change, has been rapidly backing away from that position since the pregnancy announcement.
