China’s new space station opens for business in an increasingly competitive era of space activity

The International Space Station is no longer the only place where humans can live in orbit. On Nov. 29, 2022, the Shenzhou 15 mission launched from China's Gobi Desert carrying three taikonauts – the Chinese word for astronauts. Six hours later, they reached their destination, China's recently completed space station, called Tiangong, which means "heavenly palace" in Mandarin. The three taikonauts replaced the existing crew that helped wrap up construction. With this successful mission, China has become just the third nation to operate a permanent space station. China's space station is an achievement that solidifies the country's position alongside the US and Russia as one of the world's top three space powers. As scholars of space law and space policy who led the Indiana University Ostrom Workshop's Space Governance Program, we have been following the development of the Chinese space station with interest.

How Iran is accessing the social media accounts of protesters to incriminate them, experts say

Image
CNN — In between being blindfolded, locked in solitary confinement, and interrogated in a wheelchair while she was on a hunger strike following her late September arrest, Negin says she had a realization: Iranian officials were using her private Telegram chats, phone logs and text messages to incriminate her. “They told me 'Do you think you can get out of here alive? We will execute you. Your sentence is death penalty. We have evidence, we are aware of everything,'” said Negin, whose name CNN changed at her request, for her safety. Negin, who says she has been accused by Iranian authorities of running an anti-regime activist group on Telegram (an allegation she denies), said she has “some friends” who were political prisoners. “They put in front of me transcribed printouts of my phone conversations with those friends,” she said, and “questioned me on what my relationship with tho
