Current highlights in science news include the potential resumption of SpaceX Falcon 9 flights while an FAA investigation continues into a recent anomaly during a Starlink mission. Approved on Friday, these flights can proceed provided all other license requirements are met, according to the FAA.

In another development, recent research presented at the European Society of Cardiology annual meeting suggests that women's cardiovascular risks should be assessed in their 30s, decades earlier than current practice. This study shows for the first time that simple blood tests can estimate cardiovascular risk for up to 30 years.
