It may seem counterintuitive, but bringing down the venerable International Space Station is a bold step toward the future of space exploration. NASA has selected SpaceX to develop the U.S. Deorbit Vehicle for the International Space Station (ISS), making way for future missions. This vehicle will ensure a safe and controlled deorbit of the ISS at the end of its operational life in 2030, protecting populated areas from potential debris.

Results are based on an NIH study that analyzed over two decades of dietary information from 390,124 U.S. adults. A large analysis of data from nearly 400,000 healthy U.S. adults followed for more than 20 years has found no association between regular multivitamin use and lower risk of death. The study, led by researchers at the National Institutes of Health’s National Cancer Institute, was published June 26, 2024, in JAMA Network Open.
