A two-stage rocket designed and manufactured by SpaceX for the reliable and safe transport of people and payloads into Earth orbit and beyond is set to liftoff with four astronauts onboard.

Falcon 9 is the world’s first orbital class reusable rocket. Reusability allows SpaceX to refly the most expensive parts of the rocket, which in turn drives down the cost of space access.

You can watch the live telecast of the liftoff below.

Chennai (PTI): About 1.4 lakh students appeared for the NEET 2026 exam for admission to medical degree courses across 31 centres in Tamil Nadu on Sunday.

Students claimed that the exam paper was easier than the previous year.

Organised by the National Testing Agency (NTA), 22.80 lakh students had registered for the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET) undergraduate exam nationwide.

NTA sources said that CCTV surveillance was installed at all examination centres, with feeds linked to centralised control rooms.

In view of the large candidate volume and prevailing summer conditions, the NTA ensured reliable power back-up, including generators at all centres, to ensure candidate comfort during the exam. Also, drinking water and on-site medical support were provided to students.

The sources further said that no malpractices were reported, especially in Chennai. The results of NEET are expected to be declared in June, 2026.
