00:03:02Tuesday to Friday 8
00:03:08What's happening in the world?
00:03:11The mega rocket Starship, developed by SpaceX to travel
00:03:15to the moon and Mars, made a successful test flight on Friday, the first
00:03:19since the company's IPO in June. This metallic
00:03:22colossus, 124 m tall, took off into the Texas sky
00:03:26shortly before 6 p.m. local time.
00:03:30of the 13th test of this rocket, the largest and most powerful ever
00:03:33developed, and of the second flight of its latest version, called
00:03:37B3. After the two stages of the rocket separated in the air,
00:03:41animals we normally see here will several tests and maneuvers were successfully carried out with the booster before it
00:03:45ended its journey in the water, as planned.
00:03:48The ship landed quietly in the Indian Ocean amidst the thunderous cheers of the
00:03:52SpaceX employees who were following the images live from the company's
00:03:56base. Although SpaceX had already demonstrated that it could recover the
00:04:00gigantic booster thanks to a complex technique in which the artifact returns
00:04:04Bao'an International Airport in to the launch tower to be captured by mechanical arms, the
00:04:08unique, really, I've participated in goal on Friday was to test the limits of the apparatus, for which several
00:04:11engines were deliberately shut down. SpaceX
00:04:15states that it wants to use this rocket in the coming years for rapid trips
00:04:18between large metropolises on Earth, but also to reach Mars and the Moon,
00:04:22as Starship is expected to play an important role in NASA's
00:04:26Artemis lunar program.
00:04:32For nearly three decades,
00:04:34represents a deeply rooted heritage in El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras have sustained a joint
00:04:37effort to protect 7,500
00:04:39km2 declared an ecologically
00:04:43indivisible zone, the Trifinio Plan, a mechanism that
00:04:46combines environmental conservation, water security and productive
00:04:50development. The Trinational Executive Secretary of the project,
00:04:54Jorge Urbina, recently explained to Xinhua that more than
00:04:59cultures, although over half of that territory, 4,150 km2, is
00:05:02part of the upper basin of the Lempa River, the backbone
00:05:06of the regional effort. There, work is being done in 16
00:05:10natural reserves and two aquifers.
00:05:12cross-border ones, those of Metapán and Ocotepeque
00:05:15Citalá. For Urbina, the concept that summarizes the strategy
00:05:19is "water without borders".
00:05:23In these 7,500 km2, three
00:05:26basins are juxtaposed: the Ulúa
00:05:29River basin, which is a basin of the Ulua, a river in Honduras, the
00:05:33Motagua River basin, which Honduras shares with Guatemala, and the
00:05:36Lempa River basin. This entire zone has a high water capacity and,
00:05:40therefore, when we say "water without borders," it is because the
00:05:44basins have no territorial or municipal or
00:05:47national limits, and therefore the approach to the
00:05:51transboundary basin is strategic for
00:05:54this. The official detailed that climate
00:05:57change and pollution from agrochemicals are among the
00:06:01main threats, so the plan promotes the transition
00:06:05to resilient and agroecological agriculture.
00:06:07We believe
00:06:11that... bringing down the
00:06:14issue of environmental preservation with a basin approach
00:06:17means addressing the issue of
00:06:21preserving areas with the highest level of water recharge, ensuring
00:06:25the management of sanitation in these sub-basins, and
00:06:29principally, using as the pivotal entity of all our
00:06:33activity the human being who is the one who is living, let's say, in these
00:06:37spaces, this together with the governments of the three countries under the
00:06:40leadership of the vice presidents of Guatemala, Honduras and El
00:06:44Salvador. In technical terms, soil specialist
00:06:47Ignacio Rivera, described the central role of forests in the
00:06:51availability of water for communities. The
00:06:55source of origin, the water factory, is in the forests, the
00:06:58mountain areas. They are where the most water is collected,
00:07:02the water is filtered and then
00:07:05stored in underground reservoirs and released constantly
00:07:09during the dry season, which is what supplies the birth of
00:07:13rivers and streams from which communities
00:07:16get their main water sources called potable water,
00:07:20according to Urbina, the trinational water security program
00:07:23implemented with the support of the Organization of American States
00:07:26and funds from the Global Environment Facility aimed to
00:07:30benefit about 25 thousand people through
00:07:33drilling wells, water distribution systems
00:07:37and strengthening local administrative
00:07:39boards. one of the main destinations for
00:07:43escaping the heat in China this summer is the city of Dalian,
00:07:47located in Liaoning province, in the northeast of the
00:07:50country. Since July, the port has recorded a
00:07:53year-on-year increase of 60% in the arrival of foreign
00:07:57tourists. Surrounded by the sea, Dalian enjoys
00:08:00an average summer temperature of
00:08:04has consolidated it as one of the most popular places in the Asian
00:08:07Nation for this season. In order to
00:08:10provide better service to international representatives, the city's airport
00:08:14has reinforced its multilingual services, offering
00:08:17assistance from the check-in process to the arrival of
00:08:21passengers. For its part, the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region has also
00:08:25experienced an increase in the number of international tourists,
00:08:29attracted by its climate and the natural landscapes of the area.
00:08:32To stimulate consumption, local authorities have allocated
00:08:3516 million Yuan to initiatives aimed at improving the
00:08:39stay of visitors, including evening
00:08:42shows, local gastronomy and immersive cultural
00:08:45activities. According to data from border control
00:08:49authorities, between January and July 20, nearly 1.5
00:08:53million foreigners entered, which represents a year-on-year
00:08:56increase of 23%.
00:08:59The main source markets for visitors to this autonomous
00:09:03region of China were Mongolia, Russia, Malaysia, Republic of Korea, Singapore and
00:09:06Thailand. In southern China, the arrival of international tourists
00:09:10also maintains an upward trend.
00:09:13By July 24, Shenzhen's
00:09:16Guangdong province had exceeded one million cross-border
00:09:20passenger trips, setting a new
00:09:22record for this period of the year. One of the points that
00:09:26most attracts visitors is the Huaqiang Electronics World,
00:09:29one of the largest centers for marketing electronic
00:09:32products in the world. In recent weeks, the complex
00:09:36has received numerous foreign tourists interested in
00:09:39acquiring items to cope with the summer heat.
00:18:39tourist boats off the coast of California, but
00:18:43beneath these seemingly calm waters, scientists
00:18:46detect an alarm signal that could profoundly alter one of
00:18:50North America's most iconic marine ecosystems. A persistent
00:18:54marine heatwave has affected the eastern Pacific for
00:18:57months. The phenomenon
00:19:00also coincides with the return of El Niño, which this year could
00:19:03become one of the most intense ever recorded.
00:19:10What we have observed is that we are experiencing what we call a marine
00:19:13heatwave, the sea surface temperature is increasing and the
00:19:19react to that warming of the water, so we are looking for
00:19:22whales and dolphins and those animals can adapt to the change
00:19:26in water temperature, but their food source is what has
00:19:29difficulty adjusting, their food which are bait fish,
00:19:33things like sardines and anchovies prefer colder water, so
00:19:37they are moving deeper into the water column
00:19:40or moving further north. For
00:19:44tour operators, the consequences are already
00:19:47visible: whale and dolphin sightings are less
00:19:50frequent than in a normal year, while researchers
00:19:54are monitoring the evolution of the
00:19:56phenomenon with concern.
00:20:00Temperatures are now between 3 and 4°C above
00:20:04normal, perhaps even a little higher in some places. The heatwave has
00:20:08been like this since about December of last year off southern
00:20:11California, so it has been going on for about six
00:20:13months.
00:20:16Authorities have already temporarily restricted water access in
00:20:19some southern California beaches due to these
00:20:22sightings. If we have these marine heatwaves again
00:20:26and again and lose the ability to maintain the ecosystem as we have
00:20:29in the past, we are going to lose some of the fish species that
00:20:33we depend on as a food source and that is the great concern.
00:20:37California has recorded marine heatwaves every year since
00:20:402019, a trend that experts
00:20:43link to climate change and that threatens
00:20:47to durably transform life in the Pacific.
00:20:55Scientists from Ecuador announced on Thursday that they genetically identified 8,000
00:20:59new insect species in a protected forest of the Ecuadorian
00:21:02Andean Chocó, declared a World Biosphere Reserve. The
00:21:06researchers used genetic material from specimens
00:21:09collected in the private reserve Mashpi Taira,
00:21:13located northwest of Quito, and compared it with that of other
00:21:17insects that are recorded in scientific databases around
00:21:20the world, with this they determined that these specimens correspond to
00:21:23new species, in the laboratory where
00:21:27we separate by different shapes and colors, anatomical
00:21:31structures of the bugs and then proceed to do
00:21:35DNA sequencing, which is what has
00:21:38allowed us to reach such a high number of species. Of the 800
00:21:41varieties that should then be deciphered in detail and
00:21:45named traditionally, 97% are unique,
00:21:48as Ecuador is a small but megadiverse country. After
00:21:52six years of research, one of which was exclusively
00:21:55dedicated to collecting specimens, scientists found
00:21:58mostly unrecorded species of flies,
00:22:02wasps and butterflies. The research is part of an
00:22:06initiative by the Centre for Genomics of Biodiversity at the University of
00:22:10Guelph in Canada. The program includes 50 countries
00:22:13and studies how arthropod communities change over
00:22:17time and in response to environmental changes. In
00:22:21a region that stretches from Costa Rica to
00:22:23Ecuador, we have recorded almost 50,000
00:22:27species in this region, and
00:22:30especially for Ecuador because Mashpi broke the record,
00:22:33we have 8000 species in Mashpi.
00:22:36Mashpitaira, which occupies some 3200 hectares,
00:22:39is within the Ecuadorian Andean Chocó, an area declared
00:22:43a biosphere reserve 8 years ago, this region has also
00:22:47been the focus of environmental campaigns against mining
00:22:50activities, it is not easy to access sites, especially
00:22:54where there is illegal mining,
00:22:57so scientists in that case,
00:23:00let's say, we are always in the context of a threat
00:23:03and there are already sites that are increasingly
00:23:07inaccessible, the authors of the study, which was
00:23:10published in the specialized journal Scientific data
00:23:13of the United Kingdom, believe that as genetic studies
00:23:17of the rest of the samples collected in Mashpi advance, the number of
00:23:20insects reported could double.
00:23:51Every Saturday at 10 AM and 2:30 PM, we
00:23:55invite you to watch and enjoy Ecoprácticas,
00:23:58the program that brings you everything related to your right to a
00:24:01healthy environment, its sustainable use, its
00:24:04protection, the relationship it has with your quality of life and especially
00:24:08with your health and the people, institutions and
00:24:12organizations that are involved in the exercise of environmental
00:24:16protection. Ecoprácticas.
00:24:20Saturdays 10 AM on
00:24:23Globovisión.
00:24:26This Saturday in another vision, we took a 2-year
00:24:30break and as a result of what
00:24:34this tragedy was, which really
00:24:37not only struck Guaira but an entire nation,
00:24:40we had to come back, our program is for 24 months in which
00:24:44we can attend to at least 500 children, I say
00:24:48at least because I mean, 5 years is a very
00:24:52low number for what we are facing, but you also
00:24:55have to know how much you can cover. Another vision,
00:24:59Saturday, 1 PM on Globovisión.
00:25:50in order to encourage a greater reading habit in more Peruvians,
00:25:53the traditional Lima International Book Fair
00:25:57(FIL Lima 2026) is being held until
00:26:00August 6 in the capital of Peru, which, as usual, offers
00:26:04a wide literary selection. From the
00:26:07Jockey Exhibition Center and under the premise "More FIL Lima for more Peruvians,"
00:26:10attendees can enjoy more than 500 cultural
00:26:14activities, including book presentations,
00:26:17concerts, exhibitions, workshops and discussion
00:26:20panels for all ages.
00:26:23edades.
00:26:26the Peruvian Book Chamber, stated in an interview with Xinhua
00:26:30that this space is fundamental because it allows readers to
00:26:34approach quality editorial production and promotes
00:26:37the habit of reading,
00:26:40it is important and fundamental to believe that in this space books come
00:26:44to life, for us a fair is the moment when books
00:26:48are represented through their authors, we give ourselves the opportunity to
00:26:51see books not only even written in Spanish, we also have stands where
00:26:55books written in indigenous languages are sold. For his part,
00:27:01the multilibro bookstore. Nedo highlighted that this traditional
00:27:04fair allows them to offer the public varied
00:27:07alternatives that cover titles on literature,
00:27:10history, cooking and general
00:27:12works.
00:27:15The National Art Museum Munal of Mexico houses one of the most
00:27:18important specialized art libraries in the country with
00:27:22a collection of close to 26 volumes that cover from the 16th century to the
00:27:26present and that support research on Mexican arts, in addition to preserving
00:27:29documents of high historical value.
00:27:33Located within the old palace of communications and public works in Mexico City,
00:27:37this library enriches the work of the museum, offering free and
00:27:41open access to students, researchers and the general
00:27:44public. The Munal Library is a specialized venue with a
00:27:47main focus on Mexican art, which also houses valuable volumes on
00:27:51universal, national and international history, as well as art history
00:27:54in its various disciplines, from painting and theater to music,
00:27:58dance and cinema. It is a very important collection because
00:28:02we also have what is the reserved fund that
00:28:05precisely has publications that go from 1546 to
00:28:091900, that is our reserved fund that is also divided into two
00:28:12parts, the bibliographic and the serial, it is a
00:28:15collection that was acquired at some point and was part
00:28:18of the collector Ricardo Pérez
00:28:21Escamilla. Although it is a specialized library, its collection is
00:28:25open to the public. Visitors can consult the different
00:28:28collections while access to the reserved fund requires the use of gloves and
00:28:31face masks. As part of the measures aimed at protecting the
00:28:35materials and ensuring their preservation, the characteristics
00:28:38of these collections are very important because they also tell us about their history
00:28:42and tell us how they arrived here now,
00:28:46even here in Mexico, right? Because we know that
00:28:49many even arrived smuggled
00:28:52maybe on ships because before it was not so common for someone to
00:28:56access this type of materials. The Munal library
00:29:00is a fundamental pillar for the study of visual arts in Mexico and
00:29:04ensures that nearly five centuries of cultural memory remain
00:29:07within reach of future
00:29:16intelligent technology, contribute to boosting agricultural activity,
00:29:20one of Argentina's main productive engines, by reducing operating
00:29:24costs and increasing efficiency, a sector source told Xinhua.
00:29:27a Xinhua una fuente del
00:29:29sector.
00:29:32go hand in hand with changes in technology, since the arrival of these
00:29:36equipment and obviously from the point of view of training, each Argentine
00:29:39producer saw an increase in these
00:29:42technologies year after year, approximately double the
00:29:45volume, yes, obviously it is reflected in sales, but also in
00:29:49results. Viscondi participated in the
00:29:52138th exhibition of livestock, agriculture,
00:29:55international industry expo rural, the traditional exhibition that
00:29:59is held annually in Buenos Aires, the company. that
00:30:02operates with about 40 distributors throughout the national territory,
00:30:06currently markets five models of DJI agricultural
00:30:09drones, the Agras T25P,
00:30:12T55, T70, T100 and T100 double
00:30:16battery designed to respond to different productive
00:30:19needs according to their load capacity, hourly work
00:30:23performance and operational features. This type
00:30:26of Chinese technology gives us the possibility of
00:30:29working eh from a complementary point of view.
00:30:32different traditional machinery, but also today
00:30:36it is already being seen as the development of unique machinery in terms
00:30:40of results. The Tecron representative detailed
00:30:44that from the application point of view, this technology
00:30:47differs from traditional machinery due to the possibility
00:30:50of parametrizing variables such as flight height,
00:30:54speed, flow rate, which allows for much more sectorized
00:30:57and focused applications.
