1A - The News Roundup For September 13, 2024

Some 67 million people tuned in to watch Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump face off in their first and maybe only debate of this election season on Tuesday.

On Wednesday, state and local officials across the country warned that issues with the U.S. postal service could result in disenfranchised voters this election.

Meanwhile, an Israeli airstrike on a U.N. school complex sheltering 1,200 displaced Palestinians killed six U.N. staffers at a refugee camp in Central Gaza. At least 18 Palestinians were killed in the attack.

The Department of Justice exposed Russian ties to right wing social media influencers. U.S. prosecutors say the Kremlin media company RT funneled nearly $10 million to a platform for content creators.

We cover all these stories and more during this week's News Roundup.

Consider This from NPR - NASA prepares to head back to the moon.

This time next year, if everything stays on schedule, NASA will send its first crewed mission to the moon, since the end of the Apollo program. Artemis II will be the first flight around the moon in more than 50 years.

Its goal will be to test out the Orion capsule and all the other equipment, so that by 2026, Artemis III can put astronauts back ON the moon.

The Artemis program is aimed to kickstart a new, more enduring era of space travel that leads to Mars.It's also intentionally more representative than Apollo was. The Artemis program will eventually put the first woman on the moon, as well as the first person of color.

It's all as historic and high stakes as it gets, and also pretty daunting.

NPR's Scott Detrow goes behind the scenes at the Johnson Space Center in Houston to see how the team is preparing.
