Title 42:

Title 42 will expire on Thursday, May 11th. The termination of Title 42 is expected to result in a significant influx of migrants at the southern border. Since its enactment in 2020, over 3 million individuals have been turned away using this policy.
In response, the Pentagon will deploy 1,500 active-duty troops to assist Customs and Border Patrol for 90 days. El Paso, a border city, has declared a state of emergency in anticipation of the migrant surge, allowing the city to open temporary shelters and use federal funds to address the issue.

TROPICS Satellite Launch:

The TROPICS (Time-Resolved Observations of Precipitation Structure and Storm Intensity with a Constellation of Smallsats) are shoebox-sized satellites joining NASA's Earth observation missions. These satellites focus on studying the formation and development of tropical cyclones.
The primary benefit of TROPICS satellites is their ability to gather near-hourly data on tropical cyclones, which are powerful and potentially destructive weather systems.
By collecting data at such high frequency, these satellites can provide scientists and meteorologists with crucial information about the cyclones' structure, intensity, and changes over time.
