Relive the SpaceX Starship flight test as it happened. CNN — A SpaceX Starship spacecraft, the upper portion of the most powerful launch system ever built, exploded during its eighth test flight Thursday, disrupting air traffic and marking the second consecutive failure for the vehicle this year. The uncrewed Starship mission lifted off at 5:30 p.m. CT (6:30 p.m. ET) from SpaceX’s Starbase facility in South Texas, with the spacecraft riding atop a 232-foot-tall (71-meter-tall) Super Heavy rocket booster. After about 2 ½ minutes of firing, the Super Heavy booster separated as planned from the Starship’s upper stage, setting itself…
Seoul, South Korea CNN — Europe is staring down the barrel of a stark new reality where the United States being the backbone of NATO – the alliance that has guaranteed the continent’s security for almost 80 years – is no longer a given. President Donald Trump’s public animosity towards Ukraine’s Volodymyr Zelensky, his willingness to embrace Russia’s Vladimir Putin and recent comments casting doubt over whether he would defend NATO allies “if they don’t pay” have all forced European leaders to start thinking the previously unthinkable – is the US a reliable security partner at a time when the…

New York CNN — Sam Bankman-Fried, the convicted crypto fraudster who is serving 25 years in prison, is breaking his silence about his life behind bars in a new interview with Tucker Carlson. One major point of interest about Bankman-Fried has been about whether he has befriended disgraced rapper Sean “Diddy” Combs, who is serving time in the same Brooklyn detention center on racketeering conspiracy and sex trafficking charges. Combs has pleaded not guilty. Bankman-Fried told Carlson that Diddy is “kind to people in the unit,” adding that he’s “been kind to me.” “It’s kind of a soul crushing place…
Los Angeles AP — Pamela Bach, an actor and the ex-wife of “Baywatch” star David Hasselhoff, has died at 62. The Los Angeles medical examiner’s office reports that she died Wednesday and determined her death was a suicide.

Kelly Stafford said Thursday that she was relieved after the Los Angeles Rams agreed to a restructured contract with Super Bowl champion Matthew Stafford last week, but for Kelly, it was not always smooth sailing in the Stafford household. During the latest episode of her podcast “The Morning After,” Kelly was joined by her husband to discuss his new contract, which did not extend his time with the Rams beyond his original extension, but it did raise his salary substantially across his final two seasons. Matthew Stafford, #9 of the Los Angeles Rams, and his wife Kelly Stafford look on prior to the…
Brisbane, Australia CNN — The outer bands of Tropical Cyclone Alfred are lashing Australia’s east coast with wind and rain as the rare southerly storm’s eye inches closer to landfall expected on Saturday morning. The storm system has been swirling ever so slowly west toward the Queensland capital of Brisbane, prompting cyclone warnings along a stretch of coast home to around 4 million people. As of Friday evening, Alfred was around 105 kilometers (65 miles) east of Brisbane, moving west with damaging winds around 95 kilometers per hour (59 miles per hour), according to Australia’s Bureau of Meteorology (BOM). The…
CNN — A day after offering Canada a one-month reprieve on punishing, virtually across-the-board 25% tariffs, President Donald Trump has threatened new tariffs as soon as Friday on Canadian lumber and dairy products. It’s yet another twist in a serpentine trade policy that seems to shift on an hourly basis. “Canada has been ripping us off for years on lumber and on dairy products,” Trump said in an Oval Office address Friday, citing Canada’s roughly 250% tariff on US dairy exports to the country. Trump said America would match those tariffs dollar-for-dollar. “We may do it as early as today,…
CNN — When King Charles gets up in the morning, what tunes does he select to start his day? It’s a mix of genres across decades, according to a new Apple Music broadcast show and playlist the monarch has curated – from reggae legend Bob Marley to the more recently Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter RAYE. “Throughout my life, music has meant a great deal to me. I know that is also the case for so many others,” the King says in the opening remarks of the broadcast, recorded at Buckingham Palace and scheduled to air March 10 to mark Commonwealth Day. GET…
Washington CNN — America is feeling uneasy about the Trump administration’s rapid-fire trade policy changes, but Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell said Friday he’s not worried. “Despite elevated levels of uncertainty, the US economy continues to be in a good place,” Powell said at an event hosted by the University of Chicago. “Sentiment readings have not been a good predictor of consumption growth in recent years.” “We do not need to be in a hurry, and are well positioned to wait for greater clarity,” he said. The Trump administration’s whipsawing on trade policy has sowed uncertainty for America’s decision makers,…
