Local enterprises lack materials due to China’s ‘Zero Covid’ policy

(Photo courtesy of the firm) The worst sufferers were the electronics, wood, textiles, and footwear industries.

MoIT said from 50 to 55 percent of raw materials and accessories for the textile, garment, and footwear industries originated from China.

NASA launches mini satellite in bid to return to the Moon

"This incredible team has just sent CAPSTONE on a ballistic trajectory to the lunar orbit," he said. All being well, in four months CAPSTONE will be in a position to begin innovative surfboard-shaped "near rectilinear halo orbits" around the Moon. Weighing about as much as a suitcase, the satellite is trial-running an orbit for NASA's "Gateway" space station -- which will travel around the Moon and serve as a jumping off point for lunar exploration. The orbit passes within 1,000 miles (1,600 kilometres) … [Read more...] about NASA launches mini satellite in bid to return to the Moon
