Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta said he has a clear conscience about his three and a half seasons as Pep Guardiola’s assistant at Manchester City. Two seasons overlapped the period covered by an independent commission’s findings that City artificially inflated revenue by £830 million between 2009/10 and 2017/18. City deny wrongdoing and have appealed. Arteta declined further comment until the appeal is resolved.

NASA has awarded Blue Origin a firm-fixed-price contract worth up to $700 million to develop the Mars Telecommunications Network. The project requires the creation of a high-performance orbiter by 31 December 2028 to provide high-bandwidth communications, navigation, and data transmission for spacecraft operating on and around Mars. This initiative supports NASA’s Artemis program and its long-term objective of sending astronauts to the Red Planet. Blue Origin previously secured a contract to build lunar landers for NASA earlier this year, although the company’s New Glenn rocket program faced a launchpad explosion in May, with conflicting timelines regarding repairs.

On 12 August 2026, a total solar eclipse traversed the Arctic Ocean, Greenland, Iceland, the Atlantic Ocean, Portugal, and northern Spain. A photograph capturing the diamond ring effect and emerging solar corona at Rype Fjord, Greenland, was taken by Aditya Madhavan at 17:33:26 UTC. NASA’s Astronomy Picture of the Day (APOD) service published this image on 14 August 2026. The APOD service is a daily feature provided by NASA, resulting from a collaboration between the Astrophysics Science Division at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center, NASA Science Activation, and Michigan Technological University. A separate APOD feature on 13 August 2026 highlighted images of the same eclipse taken over Spain by Ruiyu Zhang.
