China's rocket scientists and engineers have been working on creating reusable rockets for several years and have recently made substantial progress. The latest advance was the successful re-ignition test of the 130-metric-ton heavy-thrust liquid-propellant engine that will be tasked with lifting the reusable carrier rockets currently under development.

Today's spaceflights typically last a few days to a few months, so onboard medical treatment is mostly limited to first aid. But researchers are increasingly exploring new terrain-known as in-flight space medicine-that will be critical for maintaining astronauts' health during longer missions, such as the 21-month roundtrip to Mars.

It’s no surprise that when a massive lump of ice drops off the edge of a glacier into the sea, the surface waters of the ocean get pretty churned up. However, in addition to causing tsunamis at the surface of the ocean, recent research has led to the discovery that glacier calving can excite vigorous internal tsunami waves – a process that has been neglected in driving ocean mixing in computer models.
