Agency materials now describe Artemis III as a crewed low Earth orbit mission in mid-2027 that will launch four astronauts on SLS and Orion, use a non-propulsive upper-stage spacer instead of the interim cryogenic propulsion stage, and rehearse rendezvous and docking with commercial lunar lander pathfinders before the first South Pole landing moves to Artemis IV in early 2028.

On May 15, 2026, NASA’s Psyche probe is set to pass roughly 2,800 miles above Mars at about 12,300 mph, using the planet’s gravity to bend and accelerate its trajectory toward metal-rich asteroid Psyche while teams calibrate cameras and other instruments ahead of a late-2029 arrival.

Africa CDC said on 15 May 2026 it is monitoring a confirmed Ebola virus disease outbreak in Ituri, with INRB finding virus in 13 of 20 samples—preliminarily suggesting a non-Zaire ebolavirus while sequencing continues—and tallies of about 246 suspected cases and 65 deaths, mainly around Mongwalu and Rwampara.

A systematic review and meta-analysis in The Lancet Psychiatry synthesising 37 studies and tens of millions of pregnancies concludes that, after accounting for parental mental health, genetics, and family history, in utero antidepressant exposure shows little to no causal signal for autism or ADHD—while flagging residual questions about older tricyclics.

Palaeontologists have named Nagatitan chaiyaphumensis—a euhelopodid titanosauriform from the Lower Cretaceous Khok Kruat Formation of Chaiyaphum—based on a partial skeleton accessioned at Sirindhorn Museum; body-mass equations yield roughly 27 tonnes and ~27 m of length, making it the largest dinosaur documented from Southeast Asia.

A loose surface block lifted off the ground with the drill sleeve in late April 2026, leaving the Mars Science Laboratory team running new arm maneuvers for several sols. Official mission blogs describe percussion, reorientation, and the science done while the bit was captive.

At a May 2026 press conference, WHO officials said they could not rule out human-to-human transmission in a cruise-linked Andes-virus cluster, while stressing public risk remains low and spread is not like flu or COVID-19.

Andes virus is a rodent-borne hantavirus that can cause severe hantavirus pulmonary syndrome. It is best known for its South American footprint—and for being the hantavirus with the clearest evidence of limited person-to-person spread under close-contact conditions.

Cancer is not one disease. Some forms can be eliminated for good in many patients; others are driven into long remission; still others remain difficult to control once advanced. This report uses WHO and U.S. National Cancer Institute framing on prognosis, separates hype from evidence, and explains when early treatment, screening, and specialist care matter most.
