Iran said Sunday it successfully launched three satellites into space with a rocket that had multiple failures in the past, the latest for a program that the West says improves Tehran's ballistic missiles. The launch comes as heightened tensions grip the wider Middle East over Israel’s continued war on Hamas in the Gaza Strip, sparking fears of a regional conflict. While Iran has not intervened militarily in the conflict, it has faced increased pressure within its theocracy for action after a deadly Islamic State suicide bombing earlier this month and as proxy groups like Yemen's Houthi rebels conduct attacks linked to the war.
Elon Musk s SpaceX set a world record when it launched Starship, the largest rocket ever built, only to see it explode four minutes after takeoff on its first test flight.
life. hi, i m levi, with the catch up. tonight, record university complaints, a rocket explosion and a rare solar eclipse. first, the number of student complaints about university courses in england and wales reached a record high for a fourth year running in 2022. the body that reviews them received 2,850 complaints. that s 3% more than in 2021. 38% of these were about academic appeals, including grades. complaints about service issues like teaching also made up 38%, although this was down from 45% in 2021 and just under a quarter of the complaints related to the pandemic. we ve been speaking to students. i submitted a complaint because i didn t receive any teaching, pretty much, for the entire year. even though i m now a year s more so in debt, i don t have anything to sort of show for that.
