Greenland leader says everyone should respect island's wish for independence
Greenland's leader said on Friday he had not been in contact with incoming U.S. president Donald Trump, who has said he wants control over the Arctic island, and urged everyone to respect Greenland's wish for independence. Trump, who takes office on Jan. 20, said this week that U.S. control of Greenland, a semi-autonomous Danish territory, was an "absolute necessity" and did not rule out using military or economic action such as tariffs against Denmark to make it happen. "We have a desire for independence, a desire to be the master of our own house ... This is something everyone should respect," Greenland Prime Minister Mute Egede said at a joint press conference with Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen in Copenhagen.

Bezos' Blue Origin's New Glenn debut to pose long-awaited challenge to SpaceX
Jeff Bezos' Blue Origin is set for an inaugural launch of its giant New Glenn rocket on Sunday, a long-awaited first leap to Earth orbit that sets up one of the biggest challenges yet to industry dominance enjoyed by Elon Musk's SpaceX. Standing 30 stories tall, New Glenn has been a core focus for Blue Origin since the beginning of its decade-long development, representing a multibillion-dollar effort to sate demand for satellite constellation launches and snatch market share from SpaceX's workhorse Falcon 9. If successful in its debut, New Glenn can later start launching Amazon's broadband internet satellite constellation, Kuiper, that will rival SpaceX's Starlink network, accelerating competition on another front.
