Shannon Airport Was Considered a NASA Space Shuttle Emergency Landing Site, Newly Released Irish State Papers Show

If you’ve ever passed through Shannon Airport, it’s easy to think of it as a gateway for transatlantic travel—a place built for long runways, strong winds, and big aircraft. But newly released Irish State Papers suggest the Co Clare runway once sat inside a far more dramatic contingency plan: a last-resort landing option for NASA’s Space Shuttle, should a launch go catastrophically wrong. Documents reported in Irish media over the weekend indicate U.S. officials asked the Irish Government in 1995 to allow Shannon to be used as an additional emergency landing location. In a worst‑case scenario involving multiple main engine

France Pension 2026: Official Minimum Contributory Pension (MiCo) Levels and Payment Dates for CNAV, Agirc‑Arrco, SRE, CNRACL and Ircantec

As France moves into 2026, retirees and soon‑to‑retire workers are watching two practical questions more closely than any political debate: how low can your pension legally be if you retire “at full rate” (taux plein)—and on what exact dates will the money arrive? Official publications now pin down both the minimum contributory pension thresholds (the minimum contributif, or MiCo) and the 2026 payment calendars across the main schemes. Meanwhile, base pensions are also set to rise on 1 January 2026, following the legal inflation indexation rule.

NEW YORK, Dec. 28, 2025, 9:52 a.m. ET — Market closed (weekend) Oracle Corporation stock is heading into the final three U.S. trading sessions of 2025 with a familiar tug-of-war: bulls point to explosive cloud infrastructure demand and a record backlog, while skeptics focus on the financing and cash-flow strain of Oracle’s accelerated AI data-center buildout.

The benchmark S&P/BMV IPC ended the last session (Friday) at 65,636.36, marking another all-time high close and extending a multi-session advance, while the Mexican peso held below 18 per dollar—a combination that has kept investor sentiment constructive even as activity slows into the holidays.

NEW YORK, Dec. 28, 2025, 9:40 a.m. ET — Market Closed With U.S. markets shut for the weekend, investors tracking Brazil are using Sunday’s pause to game out what matters most when the São Paulo Stock Exchange (B3) reopens: a thin, year-end tape; headline risk around Petrobras; and global crosscurrents from oil, metals, and expectations for 2026 rate cuts.
