De Artemis II Aftermovie: bemanning veilig thuis, en NEDERLANDJE kreeg ondanks Jorn Luka vlak voor landing een shout-out

Nederlandje!!!

Social

Ja als NASA er zelf nog geen megamontage van maakt dan zetten we het zelf maar even onder elkaar. Onze sterrenzeilers zijn terug en dat enkel en alleen DANKZIJ NEDERLAND, want het European Space Agency te Nederland kreeg — ondanks Jorn Luka met 66.000 volgers — vlak voor de landing een shout-out: "We just wanted to give a huge shout-out to that ESA/Airbus team, to our friends in The Netherlands and Germany and the Glenn Research Center. This vehicle powered us and propelled us from the earth to the moon and back, with extreme precision. And we're excited to be a part of your team." ESA en Airbus bouwden namelijk Orions zogeheten Service Module (die onderstaand achtergelaten wordt), en die "provides electricity, water, oxygen and nitrogen as well as keeping the spacecraft at the right temperature and on course."

Trump ook blij trouwens, en sorteert alvast voor op mars: "Congratulations to the Great and Very Talented Crew of Artemis II. The entire trip was spectacular, the landing was perfect and, as President of the United States, I could not be more proud! I look forward to seeing you all at the White House soon. We’ll be doing it again and then, next step, Mars!" Alle landingsbeelden in volgorde onderstaand, alle vele tientallen door NASA gepubliceerde foto's van de landing en het welkom HIER.

Hoe vaders de gezondheid van hun kinderen beïnvloeden

In onderzoek naar de gezondheid van kinderen gaat de aandacht nog altijd vooral uit naar moeders. Ten onrechte, blijkt uit nieuw onderzoek. Daarin wordt juist de rol van vaders als doorslaggevend gezien voor de fysieke gezondheid van kinderen op latere leeftijd.

Onderzoekers volgden bijna 300 gezinnen met hun eerste kind gedurende de eerste zeven levensjaren. Ze keken niet alleen naar hoe ouders individueel met hun kind omgaan, maar ook naar de manier waarop zij samen opvoeden. Die bredere blik op het gezin levert opvallende inzichten op.

Wat blijkt? Vaders die in de babytijd sensitief, betrokken en liefdevol met hun kind spelen, bouwen vaker een coöperatieve opvoedrelatie op met de moeder. In zulke gezinnen werken ouders goed samen, ondersteunen ze elkaar en ontstaat er een stabiele basis voor het kind.

Het tegenovergestelde patroon is ook zichtbaar. Vaders die minder betrokken en minder gevoelig zijn in het contact met hun baby, belanden vaker in een zogenoemde competitieve of teruggetrokken opvoedstijl. Dat uit zich bijvoorbeeld in strijd om aandacht van het kind of juist afstand nemen van de opvoeding.

Vaker gezondheidsproblemen

Die vroege dynamiek heeft gevolgen die verder reiken dan de gezinsverhoudingen alleen. Kinderen uit gezinnen met een minder betrokken vader vertonen op zevenjarige leeftijd vaker gezondheidsproblemen, zoals verhoogde ontstekingswaarden en een slechtere regulatie van de bloedsuikerspiegel.

Opvallend is dat deze verbanden niet in dezelfde mate werden gevonden bij het gedrag van moeders. Dat betekent niet dat moeders minder belangrijk zijn, maar wel dat vaders een unieke en vaak onderschatte invloed hebben op de gezondheid van hun kind.

De implicaties zijn duidelijk. Wie inzet op gezonde ontwikkeling van kinderen, moet verder kijken dan alleen de moeder. Programma’s en interventies zouden zich moeten richten op het hele gezinssysteem met expliciete aandacht voor de rol van vaders en de samenwerking tussen ouders.

Steun van Tsjechische premier voor Orbán dag voor verkiezingen

PRAAG (ANP/RTR) - De Tsjechische premier Andrej Babiš heeft zijn steun uitgesproken voor zijn Hongaarse ambtgenoot Viktor Orbán. In een bericht op X schrijft de rechtse regeringsleider dat "in turbulente tijden kiezen voor stabiliteit en bewezen leiderschap er meer dan ooit toe doet".

Hongarije gaat zondag naar de stembus voor parlementsverkiezingen. Die worden ook in het buitenland nauwgezet gevolgd, omdat ze een einde kunnen betekenen aan het zestienjarige premierschap van Orbán. Afgaande op peilingen stevent de meer Europagezinde Péter Magyar af op verkiezingswinst.

Babiš werd in december premier en staat ook kritisch tegenover Europa. Hij ziet niets in de klimaatplannen uit Brussel en heeft flink gesneden in de Tsjechische bijdrage aan Oekraïne. Orbán is ook tegen steun aan Oekraïne en houdt binnen de EU een miljardenlening aan Oekraïne tegen, omdat Kyiv volgens hem de voor Hongarije belangrijke Droezjba-oliepijpleiding weigert te repareren.

CPUID Site Hijacked To Serve Malware Instead of HWMonitor Downloads

Attackers briefly hijacked part of CPUID's backend and swapped legitimate download links on its site with malware-laced ones. "The issue hit tools like HWMonitor and CPU-Z, with users on Reddit and elsewhere starting to notice something wasn't right when installers tripped antivirus alerts or showed up under odd names," reports The Register. From the report: CPUID has since confirmed the breach, pinning it on a compromised backend component rather than tampering with its software builds. "Investigations are still ongoing, but it appears that a secondary feature (basically a side API) was compromised for approximately six hours between April 9 and April 10, causing the main website to randomly display malicious links (our signed original files were not compromised)," one of the site's owners said in a post on X. "The breach was found and has since been fixed."

The files themselves appear to have been left alone and remain properly signed, so it doesn't seem like anyone got into the build process. Instead, the problem sat in front of that, in how downloads were being served. For anyone who hit the site during that stretch, though, that distinction offers little comfort. If the link you clicked had been swapped out, you were pulling whatever it pointed to, whether you realized it or not.

Congratulations to the Artemis II crew – but the case for sending astronauts into space is rapidly shrinking | Martin Rees and Donald Goldsmith

Soon, thanks to the advance of robots, the only reason left to send humans to the moon will be as an ultra-expensive sport

  • Martin Rees is the astronomer royal and a former president of the Royal Society; Donald Goldsmith is an astrophysicist and science communicator

The 2020s has seen a revival of the “Apollo spirit”. The US and China are seemingly in a race to send humans to the moon by the end of the decade – and thereafter, perhaps, even to Mars. Nasa astronauts have just returned from a 10-day journey looping around the moon. Although they arrived back safely, Nasa accepts that the lack of data makes it impossible to quantify the risks involved – this represents only the second launch for the Artemis system and the first to carry astronauts.

To date, estimated expenditures on the Artemis programme are close to $100bn (£75bn). The “one big beautiful bill” that the US Congress passed in July 2025 allocates $9.9bn for the Artemis IV and V missions. Still greater expenditures are envisioned for a well-developed lunar base.

Celebrity on celebrity: are we losing the art of the big star interview?

The biggest names in and out of Hollywood are choosing to be interviewed by their peers rather than journalists, leaving many more revealing questions on the table

We live in a time where ultra-rich businesspeople have accrued more wealth and power than ever, creating a growing sentiment that they ought to be held to account, no doubt exacerbated by the fact that a wealthy businessman is in his second self-enriching term in the US presidency. So naturally, CNN, Donald Trump’s supposed nemesis, has figured out the best way to use their resources to better interrogate this elevated class: by letting them interview each other about their businesses. The 1 on 1 is named not for an actual journalist going up against a major business leader; they would probably never agree to that. So instead, CEOs can “grill” each other about whatever they mutually agree are the correct things to ask fellow elites. A spokesperson says these conversations will be “refreshingly direct”. Refreshing to who, exactly, is not specified, but you can take a guess.

This is disappointing but also inevitable. Interviews, especially on-camera interviews with people not directly involved with politics, have increasingly become all-subject, no-perspective affairs, starting from the ground zero of the entertainment industry – a leader in content-light mutual admiration. For a splashy new Vogue piece, for example, the journalist whose byline is affixed to a conversation featuring Meryl Streep and Anna Wintour, tied to the release of The Devil Wears Prada 2, takes the fly-on-the-wall version of journalism to an extreme: the “moderator” of this conversation is Greta Gerwig, Streep and Wintour’s fellow celeb. Chloe Malle, the writer and Wintour’s successor as Vogue editor, meanwhile, compares herself to a “court stenographer” without mentioning that in courts, typically the lawyers and judge aren’t all on the same team. There’s no byline at all on the introduction to another recent piece where Marc Jacobs – finally, a leg up for this underappreciated figure! – interviews Sabrina Carpenter. Presumably someone else was actually in the room with them – unless Jacobs brought his own recorder, did his own transcriptions and anonymously wrote that intro. Journalists, apparently, should be neither particularly seen nor heard.

McDonald’s CEO blames mother’s etiquette training for awkward burger bite in video

Chris Kempczinski’s taste test was mocked online, to which he said his mother had taught him: ‘Don’t talk with your mouth full’

The chief executive officer of McDonald’s recently blamed etiquette guidance from his mother for a February on-camera taste test that made him a target for ridicule – and summarily recorded another video of him eating one of the fast-food giant’s offerings in a manner potential consumers found awkward.

Chris Kempczinski suggested to the Wall Street Journal (WSJ) earlier in April that he was simply heeding maternal advice to never talk with his mouth full when he took the humorously small bite at the center of a viral video which depicted him discussing and sampling the new Big Arch burger from McDonald’s.
