SpaceX chief Elon Musk hailed a "revolution in spaceflight" after blasting off a recycled rocket for the first time Thursday, using a booster that had previously flown cargo to the International Space Station. Experts cheered the launch as a "historic" moment for spaceflight, particularly private industry, as companies like SpaceX and its competitors scramble to lower the cost of space travel. The slightly scuffed Falcon 9 rocket soared into the sky over Cape Canaveral, Florida at 6:27 pm (2227 GMT), on a mission to send a communications satellite for Luxembourg-based company SES into a distant orbit.
McDonald's announced Thursday it will shift to fresh beef in its new made-to-order Quarter Pounder hamburgers in most US restaurants as it seeks to beef up sales in its home market. The fast-food chain by mid-2018 will move away from frozen beef on the popular hamburger, which will be cooked at the time of order, the company said in a news release. The change, which does not affect the Big Mac and other beef products, follows a trial run in about 400 restaurants in Texas and Oklahoma that was well received.
