SpaceX launched another Falcon 9 rocket early Sunday from Cape Canaveral, this one boosting the SiriusXM-8 radio satellite into orbit to relay entertainment programming to receivers in cars, boats, homes and offices.
The previous Maxar-built satellite in the series, SXM-7, failed a few weeks after launch atop another Falcon 9 last December. But two older relay stations remain fully operational and SiriusXM plans to build a replacement for the one that failed. The latest mission got under way at 12:26 a.m. EDT when the Falcon 9 on pad 40 at the Cape Canaveral Space Force Station fired up its nine first stage engines, pushing the 229-foot-tall rocket into a cloudy overnight sky with a roaring jet of fiery exhaust. It was the company's 18th Falcon 9 flight so far this year and its 121st overall.On May 7, health influencer Paul Saladino, M.D.. posted a video to his X account that promoted feeding "raw dairy" to infants. The post received over 90,000 views and sparked strong backlash before it was removed the following day. Saladino regularly advocates for "animal-based" diets featuring raw milk, including on his TikTok channel where he has over half a million followers.
Everywhere you look, things are getting more complicated. Our phones have over a thousand settings. Showerheads come with apps. Cars have touchscreens. Ovens have touchscreens. "There's no doubt that 'featuritis' is real," said design consultant Jakob Nielsen. "Most of these things are too complicated."
New research is adding to the evidence linking ultra-processed foods to health concerns. The study tracked people's habits over 30 years and found those who reported eating more of certain ultra-processed foods had a slightly higher risk of death — with four categories of foods found to be the biggest culprits.
