Why earthquake-prone Japan wants to set up a second capital (opens the original)
Read excerpt
An earthquake with a magnitude initially recorded at 7.1 struck the southern Kumamoto prefecture (similar to a state) in Japan on July 28.

The race for low Earth orbit: What the launch of Vikram-1 means for India (opens the original)
Read excerpt
India’s first privately developed launch vehicle, Vikram-1, placed several technology demonstration satellites in Low Earth orbit (LEO) on Saturday (July 18) morning.
