He was only to stay two years. Finally, the NASA Curiosity robot has been exploring Mars for ten years. On August 6, 2012, it landed on the red planet. Since then, he has traveled just over 28 kilometers. An accomplishment made possible thanks to the work of many scientists on the design and realization of this NASA mission. Curiosity notably made it possible to discover that the explored region was habitable 3.6 billion years ago. Environmental conditions then changed to a drier climate as water moved underground. Scientists are now studying this transition to an arid passage. The activity of the Martian explorer robot has just been extended by NASA until September 2025. It will have to head to a new area in order to continue its explorations. Through these few kilometres, researchers hope to pierce millions of years.

Helena Wittmann impresses with her film in Locarno – culture
written by Alexandra Hartman Editor-in-Chief
In the competition for the main prize of the 75th Locarno International Film Festival, the Golden Leopard, director Helena Wittmann has set one of the few highlights so far with her feature film “Human Flowers of Flesh”.
The German author, director, camerawoman and cutter accompanies an independent young woman in her film, which is impressive with its artistically sophisticated images. This Ida, played by Greek actress Angeliki Papoulia, sails from Marseille to Algeria on her yacht with an otherwise all-male crew to find out what role the Foreign Legion plays today. The work is a German-French co-production.
Helena Wittmann sees her film, as she said in Locarno, as “an examination of life itself, of becoming and passing away”. As if on the side, she also reflects on questions of gender equality: “Of course gender issues play a role. But I don’t deal with them superficially.” The artistic originality makes her film one of the top candidates for a Golden Leopard award.
17 films from all over the world face the jury’s verdict in the international competition in Locarno. Among them is the feature film “Piaffe” by director Ann Oren, who was born in Tel Aviv and lives in Berlin. Her work, to be seen at the festival on Thursday (11 August), is regarding a young woman in the world of equestrian sport.
The Golden Leopard and the festival’s other prizes are to be awarded at a gala on the evening of August 13th.
Every day the nation surprises us with its wise news and decisions, including the decision issued by the Minister of Health regarding the formation of a committee to follow up on allegations and allegations related to mental health and its professional aspects in social media and media programs. Finally), it is the return of the compass pointer towards its correct direction by giving precedence to the scientific aspect at this stage. The future will not compliment neither the allegations nor the allegations that spread ignorance and superstitions, especially since we are in a sensitive stage and an era characterized by scientific speed that does not take into account and is merciless for those who are left behind.
This step also came to enhance more confidence in the specialists and educate the citizen to warn the climbers of their concerns and pain as a gain, especially since many of these plaintiffs have turned to warning and questioning everything that is medical and health to spread the message of ignorance that they claim in different forms, once in the form of life advisors or Spiritual guides or pilgrims, and once more in the form of health practitioner impersonators.
The presence of an official body concerned with this aspect indicates that awareness has become the title of the next stage in promoting the mental health of members of the community, improving the quality of life and upgrading the community intellectually from belief in the idea: (Imagine that you are a lion.. Well, now you have become a lion)!.
And regarding wishing and making intentions, or removing glass from the eyes of patients, talking to the jinn following reciting Qur’anic verses, and offending the true religion with these practices that were attributed to him through trade and profiteering.
What I really hope is that this committee will also monitor allegations and allegations and direct them towards the right path. Some of the recommendations that those who seek treatment practice are life practices that have nothing to do with the patient’s health condition, such as reading certain parts of the Qur’an at a specific number and at a specific hour, or such as practicing yoga or meditation that does not harm the patient. Directly, but relying on it without medical treatment harms the patient and does not benefit him.
And that the slogans and stories launched by the pioneers of ignorance to numb the awareness of society following attempts to bring it into conflict with everything that supports science and scientific research and drags it into the path of ignorance and backwardness should be demolished.

Less than a week before the start of the Spanish League, the newcomers to Barcelona presented a remarkable performance on Sunday, led by Polish striker Robert Lewandowski, who opened the scoring since the third minute with a shot from a narrow angle.
Barcelona waited only a few seconds to add the second through Badri (4), before scoring the third following five minutes by Frenchman Ousmane Dembele following a pass from the other newcomer, Brazilian Rafinha.
And then Lewandowski played the role of the passer in the fourth goal, which Badri also scored (19), then the result remained unchanged until the beginning of the second half, when it was the turn of Gabonese striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang to score the fifth (49) before the Dutchman Francke de Jong added the sixth before the end of the meeting (83).
The match witnessed the participation of French Jules Conde for the first time in the Catalan club’s colors following entering in the 61st minute, while the other Danish newcomer, Andreas Christensen, was absent due to neck aches.
