EMBARGOED 00.01 FRIDAY 7 MARCH: Is this the face of Lady Jane Grey? English Heritage Conservator Rachel Turnbull gives this mysterious portrait a final examination before it goes on display from today (7 March) at Wrest Park in Bedfordshire. New research by English Heritage, including dendrochronology (tree ring dating), XRF and infra-red reflectography, has provided compelling evidence in favour of confirming the mysterious portrait as depicting the infamous ‘Nine Days Queen’ - it would be the only known depiction painted during her lifetime. From the newly discovered evidence of a once more elaborate costume and the dating of the wooden panel from within her lifetime, to the deliberate scratching of her eyes, ears and mouth, it is possible that we are looking at the shadows of a once more royal portrait of Lady Jane Grey, toned down into subdued, Protestant martyrdom after her death. The portrait, on loan from a private collection, is on display from today at Wrest Park in Bedfordshire, alongside six other paintings including one of Wrest’s most prominent owners, Jemima Marchioness Grey.

Firefly Aerospace

Two moon missions touched down on the lunar surface. How they unfolded was a stark contrast

IM-2 mission lunar lander, Athena, landed 250 meters from its intended landing site in the Mons Mouton region of the lunar south pole, inside of a crater. This was the southernmost lunar landing and surface operations ever achieved.

Images downlinked from Athena on the lunar surface confirmed that Athena was on her side. After landing, mission controllers were able to accelerate several program and payload milestones, including NASA’s PRIME-1 suite, before the lander’s batteries depleted.

With the direction of the sun, the orientation of the solar panels, and extreme cold temperatures in the crater, Intuitive Machines does not expect Athena to recharge. The mission has concluded and teams are continuing to assess the data collected throughout the mission.

KYIV, UKRAINE - SEPTEMBER 2: Ukrainian historian and activist Leonid Marushchak holds picture depicting the Ukrainian poet Taras Shevchenko writing the poem "My thoughts, my thoughts" and a Ukrainian woman in an embroidered shirt on September 2, 2024, in Kyiv, Ukraine. Since the start of the full-scale Russian invasion in Ukraine, Marushchak often visited museums in frontline cities evacuating local works of art and items of historic value. Several times he was under shelling, the front glass of his van was shattered due to the Russian drone strike. Still, he even managed to rescue stone statues from the Museum of Local Lore in then-encircled Bakhmut. In all, Marushchak managed to take away from the war zone to safer places more than 2 million works of art and historical value.
