The Artemis II astronauts are on course to set a new distance record on Monday when they fly by the moon without stopping, then swing around for planet Earth. The crew consists of Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, and Christina Koch of NASA, and Canadian Space Agency astronaut Jeremy Hansen.During the flyby, the astronauts will travel 5,000 miles (8,047km) beyond the moon, exceeding the distance record set by the ill-fated Apollo 13 mission in 1970. The Apollo 13 astronauts reached a maximum of 248,655 miles (400,171km) from Earth before making their turn, while the Artemis II crew is expected to exceed that by about 4,000 miles (6,437km).The Orion capsule's roughly six-hour flyby on Monday promises views of the moon's far side that were too dark or too difficult to see by the Apollo program astronauts who preceded them more than half a century ago. A total solar eclipse also awaits them as the moon blocks the sun, exposing snippets of shimmering corona.“We'll get eyes on the moon, kind of map it out and then continue to go back in force,” flight director Judd Frieling said. The astronauts will take turns capturing the lunar views out their windows and will be able to make out “definite chunks of the far side that have never been seen” by humans.Once the capsule rounds the moon, it will take four days to return to Earth. NASA is aiming for a splashdown in the Pacific Ocean near San Diego on 10 April, nine days after its Florida launch.

The inaugural match at Inter Miami’s brand‑new Nu Stadium ended in a 2‑2 stalemate with Austin FC, but the event was a triumph for co‑owner Sir David Beckham, whose 13‑year odyssey to secure a flagship MLS venue finally reached its destination.Speaking before kickoff, Beckham reflected on his arrival in the United States two decades ago, recalling a promise to build a club that could win championships and grow the sport. “We had no name, no fans, no stadium – today we stand in our new home,” he declared to a sold‑out crowd.The stadium, a sleek bowl with a 26,700‑seat capacity and an overhanging oval canopy, blends Miami’s vibrant aesthetic – pink, white and black seats, neon lighting – with a design that keeps the atmosphere intimate despite its size. Fans were treated to a clear view of the action, and a standing section behind one goal preserved the club’s traditional, vocal support.On the pitch, Argentine legend Lionel Messi and Uruguay’s Luis Suárez each netted equalising goals, while Austin’s Guilherme Biro etched his name in MLS history as the first scorer at the venue with a sixth‑minute header. Messi’s 90th‑minute free‑kick rattled the crossbar, and Suárez’s late volley secured a point for the home side.Beyond the match, the night highlighted the stadium’s broader significance. The $1 billion development, approved in 2022, will eventually encompass a 58‑acre public park, retail, office space and a 750‑room hotel complex. Though much of the surrounding site remains under construction, the opening demonstrated that the project met its tight deadline, even as officials chased a final occupancy certificate hours before kickoff.MLS Commissioner Don Garber praised Beckham’s perseverance, noting that the journey “didn’t end when Messi arrived; it concluded with the opening of this building.” He added that the rapid progress in the final month exceeded expectations and underscored the importance of trust in ambitious projects.The event also featured a performance of the national anthem by Marc Anthony and a rally‑towel message reading “We’re home,” encapsulating the relief and pride of supporters who have long awaited a true Miami‑based home after years of travelling to Fort Lauderdale.While the match did not deliver a win, the successful launch of Nu Stadium represents a pivotal moment for Inter Miami, its ownership group, and the broader growth of soccer in South Florida.

Tiger Woods, the renowned golfer, was arrested on March 27 for driving under the influence (DUI) in Florida after his car crashed on a residential road. According to body camera footage, Woods told a Sheriff's deputy that he was 'talking to the president' during the incident.The footage shows Woods appearing astonished as he was handcuffed after failing a sobriety test. He was found to have hydrocodone in his possession, a painkiller that contains an opioid. Woods claimed he had taken 'a few' medications earlier in the day but denied drinking any alcohol.Woods, 50, pleaded not guilty to the charges and later announced that he would be stepping away indefinitely 'to seek treatment and focus on my health'. The incident has raised concerns about Woods' health and well-being, particularly given his history of surgeries, including seven back surgeries and over 20 surgeries on his right leg.

President Donald Trump announced on Truth Social that Pam Bondi is being removed as Attorney General, ending a contentious 14‑month stint at the Justice Department. Bondi, who described her upcoming shift to the private sector as a "transition," will leave the post within the next month. In a rapid reshuffle, Trump elevated Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche—who previously served as the former president’s criminal‑defense lawyer—to acting attorney general. The president also hinted that EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin could become the permanent replacement, signaling a continued preference for close allies in key legal roles. Bondi’s ouster follows a series of high‑profile controversies. Most notably, her management of the Jeffrey Epstein files drew intense scrutiny. After promising full transparency, the Justice Department released heavily redacted documents that failed to satisfy public and congressional demands for a "client list" and other evidence. Critics, including victims’ attorney Gloria Allred, called her departure "long overdue" for mishandling the files. Beyond the Epstein saga, Bondi struggled to deliver the political prosecutions Trump expected. Efforts to pursue former FBI Director James Comey and other officials linked to investigations of the president stalled or collapsed, fueling Trump’s frustration that she was not "weaponising" the department aggressively enough against his perceived enemies. Bondi, a former Florida attorney general and the state’s first female AG, built a reputation on tough‑on‑crime initiatives such as combating human trafficking and cracking down on "pill mills." However, her limited involvement in the original Epstein non‑prosecution deal and her heated exchange with a Democratic lawmaker—where she called him a "washed‑up loser"—further eroded confidence in her leadership. The White House confirmed that Bondi’s private‑sector role will be announced "in the near future," while Blanche issued a statement on X thanking Trump for the trust placed in him and pledging to "continue backing the blue, enforcing the law, and keeping America safe." Congressional oversight intensifies as the House Oversight Committee had scheduled Bondi to appear before it on April 14 to answer questions about the Epstein documents. With her exit, committee chair James Comer said Republicans would deliberate whether to pursue the subpoena, while Democrats, led by Robert Garcia, insist she "will not escape accountability." Reactions span the political spectrum: Democrats such as Senator Elizabeth Warren denounced the DOJ under Bondi as a "cesspool of corruption," whereas Republican Senator Chuck Grassley praised her responsiveness to oversight and noted a decline in violent crime during her tenure. Republican Thomas Massie urged the next AG to release all Epstein files and pursue arrests. As the administration searches for a permanent attorney general, the choice between Blanche and Zeldin will signal how closely Trump intends to align the Justice Department with his political agenda moving forward.

Cameron Boozer earned the Associated Press men’s college basketball Player of the Year honor, marking the fifth time a freshman has captured the award and the second consecutive year a Duke freshman has done so. The 6‑foot‑9 forward was a cornerstone of a Duke squad that posted 35 victories, topped the AP Top 25 poll, secured the No. 1 overall seed for March Madness and advanced to the Elite Eight. Boozer’s versatility—scoring against physical defenses, stretching the floor with perimeter shooting, and facilitating the offense—proved decisive throughout the campaign. Joining the ranks of Cooper Flagg (2025), Zion Williamson (2019), Anthony Davis (2012) and Kevin Durant (2007), Boozer joins a short list of freshmen who later became top‑two NBA draft picks. He noted, “It’s not just about me; the team’s success amplifies these recognitions.” In the AP voting, Boozer secured 59 of 61 votes, with the remaining two cast for BYU freshman AJ Dybantsa, who averaged a national‑best 25.5 points per game. Statistically, Boozer averaged 22.5 points (ninth in Division I) and 10.2 rebounds (twelfth), while dishing out 4.1 assists. His shooting efficiency stood at 55.6% from the field and 39.1% from three‑point range**, and he tied for the national lead with 22 double‑doubles. These numbers underscore his readiness for the professional level. Highlights of his season include a career‑high 35 points against Arkansas, a 29‑point effort versus defending champion Florida, and a dominant 18‑point, 15‑rebound performance against Michigan State. Even in Duke’s season‑ending loss to UConn, Boozer contributed 27 points despite a swollen right eye from an early‑game blow. Duke associate head coach Chris Carrawell praised Boozer, saying the program has been “fortunate to have two of the best freshmen ever play back‑to‑back,” and placed him “right up there” with the sport’s recent legends. In related honors, Fred Hoiberg was named AP Coach of the Year after guiding Nebraska to a breakthrough 28‑win season.

NASA's Artemis II space mission has successfully launched from Florida, embarking on a historic journey around the moon with four astronauts on board. This mission marks a significant milestone in the United States space agency's plan to return humans to the moon and eventually send astronauts to Mars.The 32-storey rocket rose from NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Cape Canaveral, where tens of thousands gathered to witness the liftoff. The Artemis II crew, consisting of NASA astronauts Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, and Christina Koch, and Canadian Space Agency astronaut Jeremy Hansen, are set for a nearly 10-day journey around the moon and back.“On this historic mission, you take with you the heart of this Artemis team, the daring spirit of the American people and our partners across the globe, and the hopes and dreams of a new generation,” said Charlie Blackwell-Thompson, the launch director. “Good luck, Godspeed Artemis II. Let’s go.”During the mission, the astronauts will spend the first one to two days in high Earth orbit carrying out extensive systems checks. They will then perform a critical engine burn known as translunar injection, which will send the spacecraft out of Earth's orbit and onto a trajectory towards the moon.The journey will take several days, during which the crew will continue monitoring spacecraft systems as they travel farther from Earth. Orion will then fly behind the moon on a free-return trajectory, a path that naturally swings the spacecraft back towards Earth using the gravity of both the moon and Earth, with minimal fuel required.After the lunar flyby, the crew will spend several days traveling back to Earth while carrying out additional deep-space tests on power systems, thermal controls, and crew operations. As Orion approaches Earth, the capsule will re-enter the atmosphere at speeds of about 40,233km per hour (25,000 miles per hour), before splashing down in the Pacific Ocean, where recovery teams will retrieve the crew.

A team of FBI agents has arrived in Cuba to launch an independent investigation into a deadly shootout between local border patrol officers and a Florida-tagged speedboat. The incident occurred on February 25, when 10 Cuban nationals attempted to enter Cuba by speedboat, armed with nearly 13,000 rounds of ammunition, 13 rifles, and 11 pistols.The shootout resulted in the deaths of five people, with the others being wounded and taken into custody. The Cuban government has stated that the assailants were Cuban exiles who came from the US with the intent to sow chaos and attack military units.The US embassy in Havana announced the FBI agents' arrival, stating that the trip was part of a "thorough and independent investigation" into the incident. An embassy official said the US would verify Havana's version of events, adding that the US would make decisions based solely on US interest, US law, and the protection of US citizens.Tensions have been high between the two nations since January, when US President Donald Trump imposed a virtual oil blockade on the island. The incident has sparked concerns about the escalating tensions between the US and Cuba, with the FBI's investigation expected to shed more light on the circumstances surrounding the deadly shootout.
