Artemis II Security Breach: Astronaut Enters Tablet PIN On Livestream

NASA's monumental Artemis II mission successfully launched from Florida's Kennedy Space Center on Wednesday (Apr 1), carried by the Space Launch System (SLS) rocket and Orion spacecraft. While millions watched the historic liftoff, a brief security lapse caught the attention of eagle-eyed space enthusiasts, who spotted mission commander Reid Wiseman inadvertently broadcast his tablet PIN to the global audience while preparing for launch. The incident took place 19 minutes before Wednesday's launch as Wiseman, 50, grabbed his stylus and entered the four-digit code, with the camera focused on him. As the incident went viral, social media users joked that Wiseman should have been informed by the NASA team to practice extra caution while entering the password. "My guy just typed his iPad PIN directly into a 4K overhead shot, unlocking it for the entire planet. Command module getting opensourced but it's ok because it's for the gram," said one user while ano...

Total Lunar Eclipse On March 3: Check Timings And Where It Can Be Seen In India

A total lunar eclipse, one of the most striking astronomical events, will be visible in India on Tuesday, March 3, 2026. During a total lunar eclipse, the Moon passes into the Earth's umbral shadow, giving it a darker appearance. In contrast, a partial lunar eclipse occurs when only a portion of the Moon moves into the Earth's shadow.

According to the India Meteorological Department, the upcoming lunar eclipse will have a magnitude of 1.155, making it a profound total lunar eclipse. This celestial spectacle will be visible in India, as well as in various parts of East Asia, Australia, and the Americas.

Visibility Conditions In India

According to the department, people in most parts of the country will be able to see the final stages of the eclipse at moonrise. However, some areas in Northeast India and the Andaman and Nicobar Islands will be able to see the end of the total eclipse before its end.

Key Timings 

The India Meteorological Department has provided the following timings according to Indian Standard Time:

  • Eclipse Begins at 3:20 pm.
  • Total Phase Begins at 4:34 pm.
  • Total Phase Ends at 5:33 pm.
  • Eclipse Ends at 6:48 pm.

On the evening of March 3, 2026, astronomy enthusiasts across the country will have the opportunity to witness the final moments of this profound total lunar eclipse.

A total lunar eclipse will occur globally, most parts of India will only see the final phase of the eclipse around moonrise at sunset. In cities such as Nagpur and Chennai, for example, observers will be able to watch a portion of the Moon partially covered by Earth's shadow as it climbs above the eastern horizon.

US Reopens Lake Michigan Airspace After Closure Over "National Defense"

US officials restricted the airspace over Lake Michigan on Sunday citing a potential new threat to national security but soon reopened the skies, as the United States and Canada respond to multiple air intrusions. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) announced "temporary flight restrictions" over one of the Great Lakes along the US-Canada border, designating it as "national defense airspace," one day after a similar closure over Montana led to the scrambling of US fighter jets. The Montana closure was ordered over a "radar anomaly," but no object was discovered. Similarly, the Lake Michigan restrictions were lifted shortly after they were announced, apparently with no threat detected. "The FAA briefly closed some airspace over Lake Michigan to support Department of Defense activities. The airspace has been reopened," the agency said in a statement to AFP. Sunday's action over Lake Michigan marked the latest move to address a series ...
