The world’s largest and most powerful particle accelerator is up and running again in Switzerland after a three-year refurbishment. And it is off to a record-breaking start as scientists try to unlock the secrets surrounding the building blocks of the universe. Physicists hope it will reveal the secrets of “dark matter” that makes up 85 percent of our universe, but does not absorb, reflect or emit light.

0 US company SpaceX has carried out a second test flight of its prototype rocket, being developed to take humans to Mars. Things were going well until it tried to land. The Starship SN9 exploded in a roaring ball of flames as it tried to land upright after a test flight in Texas. The company said the test was an overall success because of the data it was able to collect. Starship is designed to transport people deeper into space than ever before and possibly take 100 people at a time to Mars.
