Commercial: DRAKE Story 1: Astronauts stuck on ISS ‘confident’ Starliner will bring them home US astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams expressed confidence on Wednesday that the Boeing Starliner spacecraft, despite technical setbacks, would safely return them from the International Space Station (ISS). The astronauts, aboard the Starliner since June 5, encountered thruster malfunctions and helium leaks during their journey, delaying their scheduled return. NASA aims for a late July return, pending ground simulations to resolve technical issues. Despite uncertainties, both astronauts praised the spacecraft and crew, conducting ISS tasks and experiments. Boeing and NASA are troubleshooting thruster and helium seal issues but affirm Starliner’s capability for a safe return, dismissing alternative return options for now. Story 2: State Election Board Gives Preliminary OK to Certification Rule The Republican-led State Election Board in Georgia voted 3-1 to advance a rule granting local election boards discretion in certifying election results. Proponents, including Salleigh Grubbs of Cobb County Republican Party, argued it restores trust amid perceived election integrity concerns. Opponents, like the Brennan Center for Justice and United to Protect Democracy, asserted the rule contradicts Georgia Supreme Court precedent, which views certification as a ministerial duty. Democrat Sara Tindall Ghazal emphasized post-certification avenues for addressing fraud allegations. Despite disagreements, the board plans a final vote next month, with proposed amendments addressing document review processes. Story 3: Callahan Recognized with DAISY Award Mary Callahan, RN, at AdventHealth Gordon, has been honored with the DAISY Award for her exceptional nursing care in the ICU. Nominated by a grateful patient's family member, Mary was praised for her compassionate care, thoroughness in medication management, and constant presence during a difficult time. The family highlighted her hands-on approach and ability to provide comfort amidst challenging circumstances. The DAISY Award recognizes nurses who go above and beyond, and nominations can be made by patients or their families at AdventHealth Gordon.

We’ll be right back Break: WHEELER Story 4: Scientists Develop High-Tech ‘Air Mask’ to Ward Off Viruses Researchers at the University of Michigan have developed an experimental "air mask" designed to protect workers from airborne viruses while on the job. The mask uses an air curtain that blows down from the brim of a hard hat, effectively shielding the wearer's eyes, nose, and mouth. Lab tests have shown it can block 99.8% of viruses. This technology, developed by the startup Taza Aya, involves a backpack that sterilizes air before sending it to the hard hat. It aims to address communication issues and mask discomfort experienced by workers in noisy environments like meat processing plants during the COVID-19 pandemic. Taza Aya plans to launch this "Worker Wearable" in 2025 following successful real-world testing. Story 5: Eddie Rosario Happy to be Back With Braves The Atlanta Braves have welcomed back outfielder Eddie Rosario, signing him to a minor league contract ahead of the MLB trade deadline. Rosario made an immediate impact, starting in left field and contributing to a crucial ninth-inning rally against the Arizona Diamondbacks. His single set up a game-tying home run, ultimately leading to a 5-4 victory in 11 innings. With injuries affecting their outfield, including Ronald Acuña Jr.'s season-ending absence, Rosario's return is timely. He previously played a significant role for the Braves, notably during their 2021 postseason run. Meanwhile, pitcher AJ Smith-Shawver has returned from injury and is expected to bolster the Braves' bullpen initially before potentially returning to a starting role in the minors. We’ll be right back.
