BREAKING
Russian Ministry of Defense: 37 Ukrainian drones destroyed in 4 hours over regions of Russia and the Black Sea.
Sheikh Qassem: Our supporters make up more than half of Lebanon's population, and all of these people are united under the banner of protecting Lebanon, its Resistance, its people, and its integrity.
Sheikh Qassem: There will be no phased handing in of our arms. [The Israelis] must first enact the agreement before we start talking about a defensive strategy.
Sheikh Qassem: Be brave in the face of foreign pressures, and we will be by your side in this stance.
Sheikh Qassem: Stripping us of our arms is like stripping us of our very soul, and this will prompt us to show them our might.
Sheikh Qassem: We will not abandon our arms, for they gave us dignity; we will not abandon our arms, for they protect us against our enemy.
Sheikh Qassem: The US efforts we are seeing are aimed at sabotaging Lebanon and constitute a call for sedition.
Sheikh Qassem: If you truly want to establish sovereignty and work for Lebanon’s interests, then stop the aggression.
Sheikh Qassem: The United States, which is meddling in Lebanon, is not trustworthy but rather poses a danger to it.
Sheikh Qassem: The United States is preventing the weapons that protect the homeland.

Relativity Space, a private space technology company developed by former SpaceX and Blue Origin employees, is set to launch the first-ever 3D-printed rocket into space.

Relativity Space, a private space technology company, is set to become the first to ever launch a 3D-printed rocket.

The rocket, Terran 1, the largest-ever 3D-printed object, is allegedly reusable and will launch at 1:00 pm (US Eastern Time) today from the spaceport at Cape Canaveral.

The launch will be live-streamed via Youtube, thus making it accessible to anyone with an internet connection.

Terran 1 was made with only 85% printed material, but in the future, the company will be made up of 95% 3D printed material.

It is a tiny cargo rocket designed to reduce the cost of small space deliveries while leveraging 3D printing and reusability.

The rocket will use a liquid oxygen propellant as its fuel, making it the first rocket to ever leave the atmosphere powered by natural gas. This rocket will be a crucial component of the company's next expeditions to Mars, which aims to be methane-powered.

The Terran R, a future project, will be far larger than the Terran 1, which currently stands at 110 feet and is capable of lifting 1,250 kilograms into space.

Significantly, Relativity Space was created by former SpaceX and Blue Origin employees.
