SpaceX shifts focus from something that it will never do on Mars to something it will never do on the Moon.
Elon Musk Y @elonmusk X.com For those unaware, SpaceX has already shifted focus to building a self-growing city on the Moon, as we can potentially achieve that in less than 10 years, whereas Mars would take 20+ years.

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition.

Which just makes me want to share it again: www.nature.com/articles/d41...
Gladys Mae West obituary: mathematician who pioneered GPS technology
She made key contributions to US cold-war science despite facing huge barriers as a Black woman.

I spoke with Drs. Azoury & Davis (two plastic surgeons) about my book THE FACEMAKER - about the pioneering surgeon Sir Harold Gillies, who rebuilt soldiers' faces during WWI. His work was utterly transformative. You can listen here: www.buzzsprout.com/2411976/epis...
A series of black and white photos showing a soldier's face that has been damaged during the war, along with the reconstructive work and final result.
