National Trust membership figures drop amid furious backlash over 'woke' policies
The National Trust experienced a decline in membership by 89,000 to 2.62 million in 2023-24 amid criticism over its perceived "woke agenda," despite a 5% increase in overall visitor numbers. Controversial changes, such as terminology adjustments and the exclusion of Christmas from a volunteers calendar, fueled member dissatisfaction.

Despite membership losses, the Trust reported increased income, record fundraising, and significant spending on conservation efforts, including accessibility improvements. There are early signs of recovery, as membership numbers slightly rose to 2.63 million by June 2023.

NASA provides explanation for 'strange noises' coming from Starliner spacecraft
NASA has resolved the mystery of a "strange noise" heard by astronaut Butch Wilmore aboard the Boeing Starliner. The sound was identified as speaker feedback from the complex audio system linking the spacecraft to the International Space Station, and it poses no safety risks.

Wilmore and fellow astronaut Suni Williams are stranded on the ISS due to delays in the Starliner program, now expected to remain there until February. A return is planned using a SpaceX capsule instead.
