America is back in space. After being scrubbed last Wednesday, Space X and NASA successfully launched the crew Dragon on Saturday, making it the first time since 2011, when NASA retired their space shuttles, that astronauts have entered orbit from American soil. It also marks the first time that astronauts have been launched into orbit in a commercially-built rocket, this time built by Space-X. The two crew members, Bob Behnken and Doug Hurley, have both previously been to space. The capsule docked at the International Space Station Sunday morning just after 10 AM.
Farmers and producers who have been affected financially by COVID-19 can now apply for assistance. The Coronavirus Food Assistance Program, which was part of the CARES Act, helps to make funds available to farmers and producers who saw their crops, livestock, and other products take a hit financially as COVID-19 began to spread within the U.S. Applications can be made by contacting local farm service agencies. The program is open for applications until August 28th.
