Shinzo Abe said the pressure on North Korea must be raised to the maximum level. On Tuesday Pyongyang test-fired a ballistic missile which traveled about 1000 km before landing in the Sea of Japan. Also: Mount Agung in Bali continues to spew massive plumes of ash, and scientists in the Netherlands have, for the first time, grown earthworms in simulated Martian soil.
