Artemis II Now Closer To Moon Than Earth Authored by T.J.Muscaro via The Epoch Times, Artemis II’s four moon-bound astronauts are officially closer to the Moon than the Earth. Mission Control confirmed the milestone to the crew at 10:59 p.m. CT on April 3, three days into their historic flight around the moon. As of 11 p.m., NASA astronauts Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, and Christina Koch, and Canadian Space Agency astronaut Jeremy Hansen and their Orion spacecraft Integrity were more than 136,000 miles away from the Earth. This point was also far beyond the halfway point of the more than 252,000 miles they will ultimately reach from home. Koch noted that the whole crew looked around at each other, acknowledging the milestone. “We can see the moon out of the docking hatch right now,” she said. “It is a beautiful sight. We’re seeing more and more of the farside, and it’s just a thrill to be here.” Though now closer to the moon, they still won’t enter its gravitational influence for more than a day. According to mission leaders, everything is running smoothly, and a planned course-correction burn was canceled because the spacecraft remained on a precise heading. After two days of critical checkouts, manual test flights, and a series of engine firings from the first crewed launch of the most powerful human-rated rocket NASA’s ever assembled to the first trans-lunar injection burn in more than 50 years, the crew and Mission Control have been able to settle into a much calmer pace. The first pictures of Earth taken from Integrity were received and shared with the world on the morning of April 3. The crew spoke with members of the media and reflected on how the Earth looked from their vantage point. And upon waking on Day 3, they were able to talk to their families for the first time since the launch. They then proceeded with the day’s objectives, which focused heavily on testing medical and emergency systems, including performing a CPR demonstration, evaluating the medica...

Every market rotation has that moment where investors ask, "Did I miss it?" But these shifts rarely happen all at once. Like the late 1990s, they unfold slowly and test your patience, and the "Great Rotation" we are experiencing right now still feels like it's early. The iShares Expanded Tech-Software Sector ETF is down more than 20% in early 2026, while industrials and consumer staples are up double digits. The S&P 500 Equal Weight index is also outperforming, a sign that leadership is broadening, something you typically see in the middle of a rotation , not the end. It doesn't feel obvious yet, and that's the point. The best opportunities right now are likely in tech-adjacent and telecom infrastructure names that haven't been crowded trades. Here are two strong tickers to watch. Continue reading

Tasos Katopodis As the war in the Middle East escalates, President Donald Trump said on Saturday that “all hell” will rain down on Iran if Tehran fails to reach a deal and reopen the Strait of Hormuz within 48 hours. “Remember when I gave Iran ten days to make a deal or open up the Hormuz Strait” Trump wrote in a social media post, adding, “Time is running out—48 hours before all hell will rain down on them.” Trump’s latest threat comes as the U.S. and Israeli military campaign in the Middle East enters its fifth week and global oil prices continue to climb amid Iran’s decision to block much of maritime traffic through the Strait of Hormuz, a key trade route. Previously, on Mar. 26, following a request from the Iranian government, Trump delayed attacking Iran’s energy infrastructure by 10 days to Apr. 6, noting that the talks with the Islamic Republic were going “very well.” Dear readers, we recognize that politics often intersect with the financial news of the day, so we invite you to click here to join the separate political discussion.
