U.S. and Iran Agree to Ceasefire; Astronauts Chat from Deep Space

The United States and Iran have agreed to a last-minute ceasefire, easing fears of a broader regional conflict. The deal, confirmed by officials, follows a period of heightened military tensions. In a starkly different setting, the four astronauts of NASA's Artemis II mission held a live call with the International Space Station. The crews discussed the upcoming lunar flyby mission, which will carry humans farther from Earth than any mission in over 50 years. The two events, one resolving earthly conflict and another advancing space exploration, occurred simultaneously, highlighting a day of dramatic global developments.
