Did you miss the news from the start of the morning? We have concocted a recap to help you see more clearly.
This Sunday and after two months in space, the two American astronauts returned safe and sound to Earth aboard a SpaceX capsule.
Bob Behnken et Doug Hurley landed off Pensacola in the Gulf of Mexico, a site chosen to avoid a tropical storm in the area. This successful end of mission paves the way for regular manned flights with this new space vehicle for NASA. The businessman Elon Musk, at the origin of the project, can rub his hands: his bet is successful.
Today, history was made.@AstroBehnken & @Astro_Doug returned to Earth aboard @SpaceX‘s Crew Dragon Endeavour, completing their #LaunchAmerica @Commercial_Crew mission and ushering in a new era of human spaceflight: https://t.co/uPa3srrXp4 pic.twitter.com/sP7sxPQXbf

The poster for the next Coupe de France final, which will take place on August 9 in Auxerre, is far from unprecedented. The two flagship clubs of French women’s football, PSG and OL have indeed already faced each other four times at this stage of the competition with three victories for the Lyonnaises. To get his ticket, Paris had to overcome Sunday night from Bordeaux, 2-1. A little earlier in the day, OL won 1-0 against Guingamp.
While Donald Trump wanted to ban this weekend TikTok from the United States, the takeover of the company could eventually become an option. Microsoft thus confirmed on Sunday that negotiations were underway to buy the American branch of the social network from its Chinese parent company, ByteDance. The computer giant even spoke with the tenant of the White House about it. The goal is to close the deal before September 15.
