      NASA has a design for a new rocket that will have to ability to take humans to asteroids and Mars. Currently, it is planned to be the most powerful launcher ever built. The estimate cost of the project will be around $18 billion. The project is due to have its fist launch by the end of 2017.

      I see this story as being newsworthy because for a bit it seemed as space exploration for the United States had come to a halt after the last shuttle, Atlantis, took off in early July 2011.

      As I see it, this article has a certain importance and impact to the U.S. Although it will take some time for this new rocket to be released, it still gives us a horizon to look towards in the topic of space exploration.

      I thought this news was important because it's world news and NASA affects many people. It has Human/Interest Emotion, Timeliness, and Conflict. The reason being why it is Human/Interest Emotion is because it affects a certain group of people (people who are interested in science and space). It is Timeless because it happened recently. It is a Conflict because they are delaying something because something went wrong.

    The announcement on Tuesday by the Russian space agency that it will delay the launching of the next crew to the International Space Station is a concern for NASA, which is relying solely on the Russians for astronaut transportation.

      This article is newsworthy because I think that a lot of people, whether they like science or not, are interested in NASA. It's an interesting topic especially since there is a new rocket design. Timeliness: Design was released within a week. Meaning: The article explains to the readers the design and what the new rocket will be useful for.

      This story is interesting to me because it is about science and our space program which interests me.  The story is also important because it is dealing with the large impact of unveiling an entirely new rocket design, and not just a new rocket.

    It is the first planet, astronomers say, that has been definitely shown to be orbiting two stars at once, circling the pair - which themselves orbit each other tightly - at a distance of some 65 million miles.

    From double sunrise to double sunset the show goes on, always changing. Sometimes the orange sun rises first. Sometimes it is the red one, although they are never far apart in the sky and you can see them moving around each other, casting double shadows across the firmament and periodically crossing right in front of each other.
