Captain America's Team in AVENGERS: DOOMSDAY Reportedly Revealed; Plus Doctor Doom's Crew — GeekTyrant

The Russo Brothers are returning to direct the final two films in the Multiverse Saga, and just like they did with Avengers: Infinity War and Endgame , the final two movies in the Infinity Saga, they are making these flicks super high-stakes and major events in the MCU.
As we head into the year long wait to see Avengers: Doomsday , bits of info, both verified and rumored, will really start to ramp up.
In the upcoming film, we know that Earth's Mightiest Heroes will assemble to battle RDJ's Doctor Doom, and aside from the X-Men, Fantastic Four, and New Avengers, we know Captain America will lead his own team of Avengers.
A new rumor from The Cosmic Circus (via CBM) claims that the team led by Sam Wilson (Anthony Mackie) will be comprised of Joaquin Torres/The Falcon, Carol Danvers/Captain Marvel, Bruce Banner/The Hulk, Wong, and Shang-Chi. They're officially on his team, with She-Hulk likely to join them.
The site notes that Latveria, the fictional country from the Marvel Comics universe ruled by the supervillain Doctor Doom will also be featured in Avengers: Doomsday . The small, isolated European nation is located in the Banat region, and is often portrayed as having a distinct culture and history.
The country is known for its advanced technology and the strong grip Doctor Doom maintains on its people. Regarding Doom's team, it's said, "we've already met them." That either means they're Multiversal Variants of familiar characters or villains from previous MCU movies.
So far, Avengers: Doomsday stars Chris Hemsworth, Anthony Mackie, Winston Duke, Tom Hiddleston, Sebastian Stan, Letitia Wright, Paul Rudd, Robert Downey Jr., Wyatt Russell, Simu Liu, Tenoch Huerta Mejia, Florence Pugh, Danny Ramirez, David Harbour, Hannah John-Kamen, and Lewis Pullman, as well as The Fantastic Four: First Steps leads Pedro Pascal, Vanessa Kirby, Ebon Moss-Bachrach, and Joseph Quinn, with X-Men franchise stars Kelsey Grammer, Patrick Stewart, Ian McKellen, Alan Cumming, Rebecca Romijn, James Marsden, and Channing Tatum set to join them.
Avengers: Doomsday is set to be released on May 1, 2026, with Avengers: Secret Wars scheduled to arrive on May 7, 2027.

SES's O3b mPOWER System Receives Platinum Space Sustainability Rating

Assessment based on an in-depth analysis of more than 65 parameters across deployment, operations, and end-of-life disposal of the O3b mPOWER mission LUXEMBOURG, June 02, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--O3b mPOWER, SES's second-generation medium earth orbit (MEO) system, has been awarded the Platinum badge by the Space Sustainability Rating (SSR) Association. This is the highest possible SSR rating tier, and has been awarded to the O3b mPOWER constellation of 13 high-throughput and low-latency satellites, eight of which are already in orbit. The O3b mPOWER mission was assessed across all phases: deployment, operations, and end-of-life disposal. The Platinum rating for O3b mPOWER was based on an in-depth analysis of more than 65 parameters, including: satellite count, orbital region, collision avoidance strategies, adherence to recognised design and operational standards, and SES's overall approach to data sharing and transparency. SES is the second operator to receive a Platinum rating from the SSR, and the sixth to be officially rated. Rather than evaluating individual satellites in isolation, the SSR assesses the aggregate sustainability impact of the entire constellation and considers how satellites interact, operate collectively, and contribute to the broader space environment. This recognition indicates that the O3b mPOWER constellation demonstrates minimal impact on the orbital environment beyond what is necessary for mission success and reflects SES's strong commitment to sustainable space operations and adherence to internationally accepted best practices in space sustainability. Prof. Jean-Paul Kneib, President of the SSR Association, Academic Director of EPFL Space Center and Head of the Laboratory of Astrophysics (LASTRO), said, "The Space Sustainability Rating provides an independent benchmark to encourage transparency among space actors, promote best practices in space missions, and support the long-term preservation of the orbital environment. The Platinum rating awarded to the O3b mPOWER constellation reflects SES's strong alignment with the SSR's criteria across the full mission lifecycle. We celebrate this recognition for the O3b mPOWER constellation and SES's contribution to a safer, more responsible, and resilient satellite ecosystem. As the SSR continues to evolve, it aims to drive positive change across the space sector by highlighting leadership in space sustainability—such as that demonstrated by SES—and to encourage the global space community to make informed, sustainability-focused decisions." Milton Torres, Chief Technology Officer of SES, said, "For 40 years, SES has been driving responsible best practices and developing new technologies, partnerships and solutions contributing to sustainable space. This Platinum badge not only highlights our leadership in sustainable space operations but also reinforces our commitment to responsible and innovative practices in the space industry, while supporting long-term space sustainability for all spacecraft operators."

Further information is available at: About the SSR The Space Sustainability Rating is a voluntary initiative launched by the World Economic Forum in 2016 and developed since 2018 by a consortium of academic and institutional partners including the European Space Agency (ESA), Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), BryceTech, and the University of Texas at Austin. Created in consultation with industry, policy, and academic stakeholders, the SSR encourages responsible behavior in space by evaluating missions against a set of transparent sustainability criteria. The SSR provides a comprehensive framework for assessing the sustainability of space missions, identifying areas for improvement, and offering operators a chance to communicate their sustainability practices through independent, badge-based ratings: Bronze, Silver, Gold, or Platinum. Each SSR rating also includes actionable recommendations to guide operators in enhancing sustainability practices over time. This approach empowers responsible space actors to continuously evolve their mission strategies and set new benchmarks for space stewardship.

Remission, Attaining CV Risk Targets Drops CVD Risk in Lupus

Patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) had more than double the risk for atherosclerosis progression over 10 years than healthy control individuals, but maintaining cardiovascular risk factor (CVRF) targets and achieving sustained disease remission significantly reduced this risk. METHODOLOGY: Researchers collected carotid ultrasound measurements from 111 patients with SLE and 94 age- and sex-matched controls, including baseline measurements from 2012 to 2013 with follow-up assessments at 3, 7, and 10 years. They tracked carotid plaque progression, CVRF target attainment on the basis of the 2016 European Society of Cardiology Guidelines on cardiovascular disease (CVD) prevention and additional CVD risk modifiers, and incident CVD events over 10 years and looked for predictors of plaque progression. TAKEAWAY: Patients with SLE demonstrated a 2.3-fold higher risk for carotid plaque progression than healthy control individuals (incidence rate ratio [IRR], 2.26; 95% CI, 1.34-3.81; P = .002). = .002). Each CVRF maintained at target during the 10-year follow-up reduced plaque progression risk by 32% (IRR, 0.68; 95% CI, 0.53-0.89; P = .004). = .004). Achievement of definition of remission in SLE for ≥ 75% of follow-up decreased risk for plaque progression by 43% (IRR, 0.57; 95% CI, 0.34-0.95; P = .033). = .033). Persistent triple antiphospholipid antibody positivity increased 10-year risk for incident cardiovascular events in SLE more than sevenfold (hazard ratio, 7.52; P = .014). IN PRACTICE: 'Patients with SLE experience a 2.3-fold higher 10-year atherosclerosis progression risk than [healthy controls], which is significantly mitigated by sustained [cardiovascular risk factor] control and prolonged clinical remission,' the study authors wrote in the abstract. 'Carotid ultrasound may have an additive role in enhancing CVD risk assessment in patients with SLE.' SOURCE: Maria G. Tektonidou, MD, PhD, of the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, Athens, Greece, presented the study at the 16th International Congress on Systemic Lupus Erythematosus in Toronto. LIMITATIONS: The study sample was relatively small. Carotid ultrasound is dependent on operator skill and experience, which can lead to interobserver and intraobserver variability. DISCLOSURES: Funding information for this research was not provided. Disclosure information for the authors was not available.
