Hawaii defeats Curacao to win Little League World Series

The Little League World Series crown is heading back to Hawaii as the team from Honolulu defeated international champion Curacao, 13-3, in four innings on Sunday afternoon in South Williamsport, Pennsylvania.

It was a mercy rule walk-off for Kama Angell, who collected his sixth RBI of the day to win it for his team.

Hawaii has been dominant since arriving in Williamsport, clearly looking like the favorite to take the title at the end of the tournament. They lived up to that by hitting back-to-back home runs in the bottom of the first inning after the team from Willemstad, Curacao, went up 1-0 on a wild pitch.

Artemis II vs Apollo: Why this mission loops the moon but doesn't land

More than half a century after NASA’s final Apollo mission, astronauts prepared Wednesday to return to the moon, but this time, they will not land. Instead, four crew members aboard Artemis II will fly past the moon on a 10-day mission, traveling farther into space than any humans since the Apollo era. The mission is designed as a crewed lunar flyby, a critical test of NASA’s deep-space systems before attempting future landings, according to NASA. Launched aboard the Space Launch System rocket, the Orion spacecraft will first enter Earth's orbit before following a precise path known as a "free-return" trajectory.
