(210224) -- PUTRAJAYA, Feb. 24, 2021 (Xinhua) -- A medical worker shows a dose of COVID-19 vaccine in Putrajaya, Malaysia, Feb. 24, 2021. Malaysia launched its national immunization program on Wednesday, with Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin being the first to be vaccinated. This would be Malaysia's largest vaccination program ever, aiming to inoculate at least 80 percent of the country's total population to achieve protection against COVID-19, which has infected over 280,000 people and caused over 1,000 deaths in the country so far.

This NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope Picture of the Week features NGC4826 ? a spiral galaxy located 17 million light-years away in the constellation of Coma Berenices (Berenice's Hair). This galaxy is often referred to as the "Black Eye", or "Evil Eye", galaxy because of the dark band of dust that sweeps across one side of its bright nucleus. NGC4826 is known by astronomers for its strange internal motion. The gas in the outer regions of this galaxy and the gas in its inner regions are rotating in opposite directions, which might be related to a recent merger. New stars are forming in the region where the counter rotating gases collide.? This galaxy was first discovered in 1779 by the English astronomer Edward Pigott.?Credit: ESA / eyevine
Artemis I extends NASA and ESA's (European Space Agency) strong international partnership beyond low-Earth orbit to lunar exploration with Orion on Artemis missions, as the ESA logo joins the historic NASA "meatball" insignia on the Artemis I spacecraft adapter jettison fairing panels that protect the service module during launch. Orion is currently stationed at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in the Multi-Payload Processing Facility, where it will undergo fueling and servicing by NASA's Exploration Ground Systems and Jacobs Technology teams in preparation for the upcoming flight test with the Space Launch System rocket under the agency's Artemis program.Credit: ESA / eyevine
Space snapshot. Does this image make you anxious or are you already tracking where all the wires go? If the latter, you might have what it takes to be an astronaut! It is an exciting time for space. With NASA's latest rover safely on Mars and ESA's call for the next class of astronauts, the space industry is teeming with possibilities. This image taken in ESA's Columbus laboratory on the International Space Station is a snapshot of the many opportunities in space research and exploration. In the centre is the Biolab facility, a fridge-sized unit that hosts biological experiments on micro-organisms, cells, tissue cultures, small plants and small invertebrates. Performing life science experiments in space identifies the role that weightlessness plays at all levels of an organism, from the effects on a single cell up to a complex organism - including humans. The facility has enabled researchers to make some remarkable discoveries, most notable that mammalian immune cells required a mere 42 seconds to adapt to weightlessness, prompting more questions but also an overall positive outlook for long-duration human spaceflight. The pink glow in the image is from the greenhouse that has enabled many studies on plant growth in space. With plans to visit the Moon and Mars, future astronauts will need a regular, fresh source of food as they take on these missions farther away from home. In addition to providing much-needed vitamins and minerals, growing plants in space contributes to sustainability and adds a homey touch to exploration. Growing plants in the microgravity conditions of the International Space Station has allowed researchers to fine tune the approach. European research showed plants respond best to red and blue light, giving the Columbus module a disco feel. If you look closely, you can spot Astro Pi Ed to the left of Biolab.
