Behind both, Qatar.

It is seeking to transform itself to a cultural and sporting hotspot in line with the Qatar National Vision 2030 - by which time the ruling Al-Thani family expect to have a sustainable and balanced economy....

The Real Time with Bill Maher host and Pelosi discussed Congress’ latest coronavirus pandemic stimulus legislation aimed at giving small businesses incentive to keep employees on their payroll until social distancing measures are pulled back.

The Mars Oxygen In-Situ Resource Utilization Experiment—also known as MOXIE—won’t make Mars habitable, but it will aim to prove how future Mars explorers might produce oxygen for breathing. Oxygen can also be used for rocket propellant, so making it on Mars would save astronauts the trouble of having to bring extra fuel with them for the return trip.
