❗️ Nord Stream 2 AG informed Sputnik that it will start surveying the pipeline after the completion of the police investigation on the spot and the removal of the cordon

💬 "The Russians realize that this is an existential war for them. Now they must win. And the Ukrainian side, which is still being propped up by the Western powers, is not ready to settle. I think that's one reason that the Russians have had switched their strategy as they move forward, because at each point where they think it would be reasonable for Kiev to sue for peace, Kiev has been unwilling to do that. And I think that's going to continue until, frankly, there may not be any Ukraine left", Jim Jatras, former US diplomat and senior foreign policy advisor to the Senate Republican leadership, said on Ukraine’s conflict.

🛰The U.S. Federal Communications Commission voted 4-0 to enforce new rules to address the issue of orbital debris, which poses a risk to space exploration.

After earlier recommending that operators of satellites in low-Earth orbit must ensure spacecraft re-enter Earth's atmosphere within 25 years, the FCC has now voted to require them to dispose of low-Earth orbit satellites within five years.

"It will mean more accountability and less risk of collisions that increase orbital debris and the likelihood of space communication failures," said FCC Chair Jessica Rosenworcel, as quoted by Reuters. Of the 10,000 satellites deployed since 1957, more than half are no longer working, the U.S. telecommunications regulator noted.

📲The wild saga of Elon Musk's on-again-off-again purchase of Twitter took a turn toward a conclusion Tuesday after the mercurial Tesla CEO proposed to buy the company at the originally agreed-on price of $44 billion.

Musk proposed in a letter to Twitter that the company disclosed in a filing Tuesday with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Less than two weeks before, a trial between the two parties is scheduled to start in Delaware.

In a statement, Twitter said it intends to close the transaction at $54.20 per share after receiving the letter from Musk.

Trading in Twitter's stock, which had been halted for much of the day pending the release of the news, resumed trading late Tuesday and soared 22% to close at $52.
