SUMMARY: Police in Madison, Wisconsin, are investigating a tragic school shooting involving a 15-year-old girl who killed a teacher and a student before taking her own life. A second-grade teacher made the initial 911 call. Authorities are examining a potential manifesto linked to the shooter for clues about her motives, which they believe may involve multiple factors. While the school district is reopening nearby schools, concerns about student safety persist. Two injured students remain in critical condition, and the shooter’s family is reportedly cooperating with the investigation. Further updates on the manifesto are expected from the police.

Who is 15-year-old Natalie Rupnow – and how did she end up at Abundant Life Christian School in Madison?

SUMMARY: Firefly Aerospace’s Blue Ghost lunar lander, built in Cedar Park, is set for a January launch to the moon from Cape Canaveral. The mission aims to be the first American-made spacecraft to land on the moon in 50 years. Firefly’s CEO Jason Kim emphasizes the importance of affordable, high-value lunar missions for a robust lunar economy. The mission, funded by an $11 million NASA contract, will carry 10 payloads for scientific experiments. The largest number of experiments ever delivered to the moon will explore lunar geology, heat flow, dust buildup, and Earth’s magnetic field. Two additional lunar landings are planned for 2025.

The Blue Ghost Lunar Lander was built in Cedar Park by Firefly Aerospace. It’s now in Cape Canaveral, Florida, being prepared for a mid-January blast off to the moon.

SUMMARY: A Texas state audit revealed that district and county clerks failed to report over 800 cases of people found incompetent to stand trial to the Department of Public Safety (DPS), a critical step for flagging these individuals in federal firearm background checks. This breakdown, spanning from September 2018 to January 2024, raises concerns about public safety, as these individuals may attempt to purchase firearms. The audit also found significant reporting lapses in counties like Dallas, Bexar, and Smith. The issue mirrors previous failures in federal reporting, such as the Sutherland Springs shooting, prompting calls for better compliance and oversight.
