"Denmark's Crown Prince Christian Assumes Regency as King Frederik Embarks on First Foreign Visit"

Crown Prince Christian of Denmark is acting as regent for the first time while his father, King Frederik, is away visiting Poland. This marks the first time the 18-year-old has taken on the role, following his grandmother Queen Margrethe's abdication. The Danish Royal House confirmed that Christian made a solemn declaration to abide by the Constitution prior to assuming this responsibility. While Queen Margrethe, Prince Joachim, and Princess Benedikte can also act as regents, Christian's position as the heir to the throne takes precedence. King Frederik's visit to Poland includes meetings with the President and participation in a wreath-laying ceremony at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier.

The Reign of King Charles III: Anticipation and Expectations.

In the event of King Charles's death, the Operation Menai Bridge contingency plan would kick in, with preparations for his formal state funeral starting almost immediately. The new monarch would automatically inherit the throne, with Prince William next in line. Camilla, as a spouse who married into the royal family, cannot inherit the hereditary title and would not be able to keep her title of Queen Consort. She could take the role of queen-dowager, but it's not yet known if she would use that moniker. Prince Harry would probably become Regent until Prince George is old enough to carry out the roles of a constitutional monarch.

REGENT unveils full-scale electric seaglider for passenger transport.

Sustainable maritime transportation start-up REGENT has revealed the full-scale prototype of its zero-emission 100% electric seaglider, set to take flight in 2024. The seaglider operates a few meters off the water’s surface, combining the high speeds of an aircraft with the low operating costs of a boat. With 40% of the world’s population living in coastal communities, REGENT’s electric seagliders can help provide an alternative zero-emission travel method to reduce congestion. REGENT has over $8 billion in commercial orders and plans to expand its manufacturing footprint at its Rhode Island headquarters by up to 600,000 square feet for building and testing its seagliders.
