Commonwealth leaders, including UK Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer, have agreed it's time to discuss reparations for the transatlantic slave trade, despite the UK's reluctance to address the issue at a recent summit in Samoa. A joint statement from 56 heads of government calls for a "meaningful, truthful and respectful conversation" on reparatory justice. While the UK maintains it will not pay reparations, the dialogue continues, with hopes for further discussions at the upcoming UK-Caribbean forum in March. The topic is expected to gain prominence at future Commonwealth meetings.

A federal judge has halted Virginia's voter roll purge program, which aimed to remove suspected noncitizens, ruling it violated federal law by not allowing individual assessments 90 days before an election. Judge Patricia Tolliver Giles ordered the restoration of about 1,600 voter registrations, emphasizing evidence over assumptions. Virginia officials plan to appeal the decision, while Governor Glenn Youngkin criticized the ruling, arguing it undermines efforts to maintain election integrity. This ruling follows a similar Justice Department victory in Alabama and reignites the debate over noncitizen voting, which remains extremely rare.

Astronomers have made groundbreaking discoveries about the supernova observed in 1181, now mapped in 3D using the Keck Cosmic Web Imager. This rare Type Iax supernova, caused by a thermonuclear explosion on a white dwarf, left behind a nebula called Pa 30. Recent findings include peculiar filaments, resembling dandelion tendrils, expanding at about 1,000 km/s.
