    Pakistan: 98 killed, 185 injured as monsoon rains wreak havoc Torrential monsoon rains and flash floods have claimed at least 98 lives and left 185 others injured across Pakistan since June 26, the National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA) said on Friday. The NDMA said that eight people were killed and 27 others injured in rain-related accidents in the past 24 hours. Punjab province recorded the highest number of fatalities, with 37 deaths, including 20 children, followed by Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, where 30 people lost their lives. Authorities have issued warnings for further rainfall in the coming days and urged residents, particularly those in low-lying and vulnerable areas, to take precautionary measures. Rescue and relief operations remained underway in the worst-affected regions, Xinhua news agency reported. Earlier on July 10, the Pakistan Meteorological Department (PMD) had placed multiple regions under high alert, including Islamabad, Rawalpindi, Lahore, Sialkot, Gujranwala, and several districts in Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa and Balochistan, as the rain continues to batter the nation. Additionally, several roads had been blocked due to flooding, which has impacted the traffic in these cities, according to a report by the leading Pakistani newspaper, The Express Tribune. Urban flooding has severely impacted major cities such as Lahore, Faisalabad, and Gujranwala, where rainwater has submerged low-lying areas and paralysed traffic. Roads in several key localities remain inundated, causing widespread disruption. The forecast reports suggested that heavy rainfall is likely to persist until Friday, raising the risk of flash floods. In Punjab province, cities like Sialkot, Gujrat, Chiniot, Kasur, Ferozewala, Sargodha, etc, had reported intense rainfall accompanied by thunder and lightning. According to the Water and Sanitation Agency's (Wasa) Monsoon Control Room, Lahore recorded an average of 58.8mm of rain, while some areas of the city, like Nishtar Town, received the highest 84mm, followed by Lakshmi Chowk (78mm) and Paniwala Talab (74mm). As the heavy downpours lashed Lahore, shortcomings in the drainage system's management were exposed when the key areas of the city, like Jail Road, Qurtaba Chowk, and Wasa Head Office in Gulberg, were waterlogged. Despite claims by the Lahore Waste Management Company (LWMC) of clearing over 6,000 waste containers and deploying cleaning crews, residents had expressed frustration at the lack of visible progress. The rainwater mixed with overflowing sewage has raised growing public health concerns, according to the residents, who are also finding it dreadful to navigate clogged roads. Furthermore, the situation has worsened in the hilly regions, particularly in Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa and Murree, due to the risk of landslides. In Balochistan, areas like Zhob and Sibi are among the worst affected.

NASA picks Catherine Koerner as Manager of Orion programme

In a development that may inspire new generation women engineers, NASA has selected Catherine Koerner to lead the development and operations of the agency’s newest spacecraft that will carry astronauts on Artemis missions to the Moon and return them safely to Earth.

Koerner began her new position as Orion Programme Manager effective from Tuesday, NASA said.

“Orion is a key element of the agency’s Artemis infrastructure, and I look forward to leading the team responsible for developing and building America’s deep space human spacecraft,” Koerner said on her appointment.

“Next year, we’ll be launching the Artemis I test flight — a major milestone — and the first of the Artemis mission series on our way to putting the first woman and the next man on the Moon.”

Koerner will be based at NASA’s Johnson Space Center (JSC) in Houston. Most recently, she led the Human Health and Performance Directorate team at Johnson, which works to optimise astronaut performance and reduce health risks associated with human spaceflight.

“Cathy brings to Orion a diverse background in engineering and human health, two key components for the Artemis programme that will see the spacecraft send our astronauts to the Moon, ushering in a sustainable presence on the lunar surface,” said Kathy Lueders, NASA’s Associate Administrator for Human Exploration and Operations.

“Working with our partners, her leadership will guide the programme to achievements that will inspire and benefit humanity,” she said.

A native of Schaumburg, Illinois, Koerner earned bachelor’s and master’s degrees in aeronautical and astronautical engineering from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.

As the Orion programme manager, Koerner will be responsible for oversight of design, development and testing of the Orion spacecraft, as well as spacecraft manufacturing already under way at locations across the country and in Europe for ESA (European Space Agency).

Koerner succeeds Mark Kirasich, who is currently leading NASA’s Advanced Exploration Systems Division in the Human Exploration and Operations Mission Directorate at NASA Headquarters.

Howard Hu, who was acting Orion program manager, will serve as Orion deputy program manager, NASA said.

Orion, the Space Launch System (SLS), and Exploration Ground Systems programs are foundational elements of NASA’s Artemis program.

Artemis I will be the first integrated flight test of Orion and the SLS next year.

Artemis II will follow as the first human mission, taking astronauts farther into space than ever before.
