Annual Eid celebrations

Clearly, the main activity of the annual Eid celebration remains attending a relative's residence. On this particular occasion, relatives make sure to see each other at home.  They are amused by a wide variety of dishes. The sweet flavour of the most significant meal, sewai , seems to be blending with joy and celebration. Even so, traditional recipes are significantly altered for the celebration.  During a visit to a relative's home, it became more apparent that not only did the dishes on the table resemble those of a five-star hotel, but also...  The golden-coloured cutlery placed on the table created the illusion of an upscale hotel. Each item placed on the table served as a reminder of the refined and opulent way of life.

NASA stranded astronauts' fate hangs in balance


Uncertainty hangs over NASA's two stuck astronauts in space has caused concern for America. Though it attempts to send a special mission to bring back Sunita Williams and Butch Wilmore as early as possible. 

American astronaut Sunita Williams went to space to return in one week but she got stuck owing to her faulty spacecraft. It has now been more than two months. 

There is a unanimous feeling among space scientists that only Russia and the US can help her in a safe return to Earth. 

NASA astronaut Sunita Williams along with Butch Wilmore has been stranded in space. The situation is extremely critical right now. 

Anomalies in the Boeing Starliner compel us to be cautious. Wary of the risks involved in the return journey can be more dangerous than the launch itself. 

Boeing has been conducting ground tests to prove the spacecraft’s safety, but there are certain drawbacks still. Its faulty propulsion system raises safety concerns for a crewed return flight. 

NASA plans to bring back the astronauts in Elon Musk’s SpaceX Crew-9 mission, to be scheduled for late September, but then they will return aboard Crew-9 early next year.

Crew Dragon might be used to bring them back, but human spaceflight is complex and requires careful planning and scheduling. 

In the meantime, NASA Administrator Bill Nelson and top officials are set to decide on the return schedule for the two astronauts.
