Sandy Paws Rescue Inc., a foster-based rescue in Massachusetts, recently introduced a six-year-old French bulldog named Joannie who is looking for her forever home. The local animal rescue explains: “Joannie was found as a stray extremely emaciated and less than half her current weight now. She was missing fur on her body, face and ears. She has been nursed back to health and is doing wonderfully. While her age and exact history is unknown, it is clear she has mothered more than enough litters in her short lifetime.”

NASA's DART mission—Double Asteroid Redirection Test—was humanity's first real-world planetary defense mission. In September 2022, the DART spacecraft smashed into the companion "moon" of a small asteroid 11 million kilometers from Earth. One goal was to find out if we can give such things a shove if one were headed our way.
