Northern Territory

$50m superyacht glaze visits top end on trip around the world.

A SUPERYACHT worth more than $50 million has anchored off Darwin to refuel and resupply before heading to the Kimberley.

Don't miss out on the headlines from Northern Territory. Followed categories will be added to My News.

Glaze is a 50m luxury vessel with a jacuzzi, bar, five cabins and jet skis.

The swanky boat motored into Top End waters last week and is due to depart on Thursday.

Andrew and Stuart French, from Palmerston Shipping and Logistics, acted as the ship’s agent while it was in Darwin.

“( Glaze ) is a foreign vessel that’s travelling the world,” Stuart said. “Generally, with a yacht like this, the captain and the crew will sail the ship from port to port and the owner will fly in for a week or two.”

Stuart said in their job as agent they helped with the logistics of customs, AQIS, refuelling and resupplying.

“We’re here to make their life easy,” he said.

“We don’t speak to the owners – we deal with the ship’s captain or manager.”

Stuart said Palmerston Shipping and Logistics had looked after about 30 luxury vessels in the past six years but only three in the past year.

“Darwin should do more to cater for these yachts,” he said. “We’d like to see more superyacht berthings to attract more to Darwin – we need a floating pontoon like Cairns and Brisbane have.”

Savvino-storozhevsky monastery and museum.

Zvenigorod's most famous sight is the Savvino-Storozhevsky Monastery, which was founded in 1398 by the monk Savva from the Troitse-Sergieva Lavra, at the invitation and with the support of Prince Yury Dmitrievich of Zvenigorod. Savva was later canonised as St Sabbas (Savva) of Storozhev. The monastery late flourished under the reign of Tsar Alexis, who chose the monastery as his family church and often went on pilgrimage there and made lots of donations to it. Most of the monastery’s buildings date from this time. The monastery is heavily fortified with thick walls and six towers, the most impressive of which is the Krasny Tower which also serves as the eastern entrance. The monastery was closed in 1918 and only reopened in 1995. In 1998 Patriarch Alexius II took part in a service to return the relics of St Sabbas to the monastery. Today the monastery has the status of a stauropegic monastery, which is second in status to a lavra. In addition to being a working monastery, it also holds the Zvenigorod Historical, Architectural and Art Museum.

Belfry and Neighbouring Churches

Located near the main entrance is the monastery's belfry which is perhaps the calling card of the monastery due to its uniqueness. It was built in the 1650s and the St Sergius of Radonezh’s Church was opened on the middle tier in the mid-17th century, although it was originally dedicated to the Trinity. The belfry's 35-tonne Great Bladgovestny Bell fell in 1941 and was only restored and returned in 2003. Attached to the belfry is a large refectory and the Transfiguration Church, both of which were built on the orders of Tsar Alexis in the 1650s.  

To the left of the belfry is another, smaller, refectory which is attached to the Trinity Gate-Church, which was also constructed in the 1650s on the orders of Tsar Alexis who made it his own family church. The church is elaborately decorated with colourful trims and underneath the archway is a beautiful 19th century fresco.

Nativity of Virgin Mary Cathedral

The Nativity of Virgin Mary Cathedral is the oldest building in the monastery and among the oldest buildings in the Moscow Region. It was built between 1404 and 1405 during the lifetime of St Sabbas and using the funds of Prince Yury of Zvenigorod. The white-stone cathedral is a standard four-pillar design with a single golden dome. After the death of St Sabbas he was interred in the cathedral and a new altar dedicated to him was added.

Under the reign of Tsar Alexis the cathedral was decorated with frescoes by Stepan Ryazanets, some of which remain today. Tsar Alexis also presented the cathedral with a five-tier iconostasis, the top row of icons have been preserved.

Tsaritsa's Chambers

The Nativity of Virgin Mary Cathedral is located between the Tsaritsa's Chambers of the left and the Palace of Tsar Alexis on the right. The Tsaritsa's Chambers were built in the mid-17th century for the wife of Tsar Alexey - Tsaritsa Maria Ilinichna Miloskavskaya. The design of the building is influenced by the ancient Russian architectural style. Is prettier than the Tsar's chambers opposite, being red in colour with elaborately decorated window frames and entrance.

At present the Tsaritsa's Chambers houses the Zvenigorod Historical, Architectural and Art Museum. Among its displays is an accurate recreation of the interior of a noble lady's chambers including furniture, decorations and a decorated tiled oven, and an exhibition on the history of Zvenigorod and the monastery.

Palace of Tsar Alexis

The Palace of Tsar Alexis was built in the 1650s and is now one of the best surviving examples of non-religious architecture of that era. It was built especially for Tsar Alexis who often visited the monastery on religious pilgrimages. Its most striking feature is its pretty row of nine chimney spouts which resemble towers.

Boeing launches first crewed Starliner spacecraft

By Jackie Wattles , Ashley Strickland and Maureen Chowdhury, CNN

We've wrapped up our live coverage for the day. You can read more about the Starliner mission here .

Here's what to expect during Thursday's docking

From CNN's Ashley Strickland

Eager to continue following Starliner's journey? NASA will resume live coverage Thursday at 9:30 a.m. ET on the agency's website .

Williams and Wilmore are expected to dock with the International Space Station at 12:15 p.m. ET tomorrow.

The hatch between Starliner and the station is expected to be opened at 2 p.m., and the astronaut duo will be welcomed by the seven crew members already aboard the station at 2:20 p.m. ET.

And NASA officials will share the latest details about Starliner's historic mission at 3:30 p.m. ET Thursday.

Will Starliner be used for tourism?

From CNN's Jackie Wattles

Boeing's Starliner spacecraft was designed under the same NASA program as SpaceX's Crew Dragon — which has already carried 13 missions to orbit for NASA astronauts as well as paying customers.

That's allowed under NASA's Commercial Crew Program, which from the outset intended for SpaceX and Boeing to own and operate their spacecraft. The space agency buys flights for its astronauts, and the companies are allowed to sell seats if they want.

SpaceX has taken full advantage of that: It has flown tourists and foreign astronauts to the space station in a partnership with Houston-based company Axiom . SpaceX has also flown a mission for finance billionaire Jared Isaacman called Inspiration 4 — and more are on the schedule.

But Boeing, which has suffered lengthy delays and costly setbacks during Starliner's development, has been less certain of whether Starliner will be used for joy rides.

"Right now we're focused on the six missions that we have on contract with NASA," said Mark Nappi, vice president and Starliner program manager at Boeing, during a news briefing prior to the May 6 launch attempt. "The private astronaut missions are of interest later in the decade — but right now, the focus is on getting certified."

A snippet from a Starliner overview packet posted to Boeing's website, however, is a bit more assertive:

"We are selling the extra fifth seat on NASA missions," the document reads. "Potential customers include commercial and government-sponsored astronauts and even private citizens flying as tourists. Starliner is also planned to be used for crew transportation to Blue Origin’s upcoming Orbital Reef commercial space station."

NASA officials know a thing or two about scrubbed missions

Both NASA Administrator Bill Nelson and Ken Bowersox, associate administrator for NASA’s Space Operations Mission Directorate, are former astronauts, so they know what it's like to make the thrilling journey to space and back — and the long wait to lift off when things don't go as planned, like the two scrubs Williams and Wilmore faced ahead of today's successful launch.

Nelson and Bowersox sat next to each other during the news conference.

"The administrator actually has the record because he did it first," Bowersox said, gesturing to Nelson. "They scrubbed six times on his launch. And on one of my launches, we scrubbed six times."

Selected as an astronaut in 1987, Bowersox flew five times on the space shuttle and once on a Roscosmos Soyuz, logging more than 211 days in space.

Bowersox said Williams and Wilmore probably spent longer than he did in crew quarantine because of the distance between their scrubbed launches.

Nelson trained and flew with the crew of the Space Shuttle Columbia in 1986.

"At least the weather was not a concern for the three times on Starliner," Nelson said. "The weather certainly played a big part with regard to some of our scrubs. So, yeah, it gets old hat when you strap in, and it's just another day at the ranch."

Starliner crew will land on dry land rather than splash down. Here's why

From CNN's Jackie Wattles & Ashley Strickland

Today's launch was a monumental moment for the two astronauts heading for space.

But what goes up must come down.

After Suni Williams and Butch Wilmore spend eight days aboard the International Space Station, they'll come home in their Starliner capsule.

The earliest possible landing date is June 14, but the astronauts may stay longer on the station because there is nothing "magical" about that return date, NASA officials said Wednesday.

"We've got a prescribed landing date that goes along with this launch date, but I just want to emphasize that nobody should get too excited about that date," said Ken Bowersox, associate administrator for NASA’s Space Operations Mission Directorate. "We have to have a lot of conditions that are just right before we bring the Starliner home and we're going to wait till the conditions are right and we've accomplished the test objectives before we do that."

And the vehicle will make its return to Earth unlike any US spacecraft before it.

Rather than splashing down in the ocean, as SpaceX's Crew Dragon and other capsules dating back to NASA's Mercury Program have done, Starliner is going to hit terra firma.

There are five possible landing sites, generally across the southwestern US: Two in New Mexico, one in Utah, another in Arizona and, finally, one in California.

Why land on land rather than splash down?

Seawater is rough on spacecraft. The salt can corrode components. And then, there's the sheer hassle of getting ships out to sea to rescue the crew.

NASA official: The space station's urine pump change will happen soon

Starliner is carrying a crucial replacement pump that helps convert urine on the space station into drinkable water.

The pump failed last week, and since then, urine has been stored in bags on the space station while the crew awaits the replacement pump.

"On the pump change, we're gonna get to that as soon as we can," said Joel Montalbano, deputy associate administrator for NASA’s Space Operations Mission Directorate. "My hope is we get to it this week. If not, it'll be early next week."

Today's launch means a lot to Boeing, official with commercial crew program says

From CNN's Maureen Chowdhury

The launch means a lot to Boeing, said Mark Nappi, vice president and program manager, for Boeing's Commercial Crew Program.

He said that the launch was the first step in the program's mission, and there are many more phases.

Nappi added that for the rest of the year, Boeing is focused on getting certified for the Starliner 1 mission.

Boeing official: "We don't see it as a competition" with SpaceX

When asked about the relationship between Boeing and SpaceX, long viewed as a rivalry, Mark Nappi, the vice president and program manager of the Commercial Crew Program for Boeing, said he believes others see it as a competition.

"We don't see it as a competition," Nappi said. "We've got two providers that are going up to the International Space Station and SpaceX is up there, and we're up there now as well. So, this is something that NASA has planned and we've accomplished it."

Nappi saw Musk's congratulatory post on X about the flight.

Here's what happens next for the Starliner crew

NASA officials shared that astronauts Williams and Wilmore may enjoy a slightly extended stay aboard the International Space Station once they arrive. The earliest possible landing date is June 14.

Steve Stich, manager of NASA’s Commercial Crew Program, added that the only issue mission teams are assessing is a system called a sublimator on Starliner, which provides cooling during the launch and landing phase.

"What that does is it creates a block of ice essentially," he said. "And then as heat is passed into that icebox, a little thin layer of that ice turns into a vapor and that rejects heat away. We used a little bit more water than we expected."

The team will assess data of the sublimator to learn more about how the system is functioning for future purposes.
