If you are involved in defining an energy strategy for CO2 free sources and you are not taking into consideration either nuclear power or applications in space, then don't bother.

NASA’s Orion Space Capsule Is Flaming Garbage
For many years, readers have asked me a simple question: “Casey, why do you hate the SLS so much? Don’t you also hate Orion?” Yes, yes I do. But life is finite and my heart is mostly filled with lo…

@voltnederland.org ben meestal fan van wat Volt doet, maar hoe is het onmogelijke plan van Tata stad in de plannen gekomen? Dit is een idioot plan, bedacht door een paar architecten met geen benul wat de impact van een dergelijk plan is. Graag wat meer onderzoek en bezoek Tata Steel eens.

Je hebt altijd wel iemand die begint te piepen dat het wel meevalt, met de opwarming van de aarde, want de zomer van 1976 was veel erger. Altijd komen ze weer op de proppen met de zomer van 1976.

So they’re basically laundering our federal science budget over to the for-profit prison and concentration camp industry?
NSF’s 2024 budget was $9.06 billion.
NASA: $24.875.
NIH: $47.7 billion.
Fund science, not cruelty.

If the GOP reconciliation bill passes, ICE gets through FY2029:
- $45 billion for detention, on top of the current annual budget of $3.4 billion
- $14.4 billion for transportation and removal, on top of the current annual budget of $750 million
- $8 billion for hiring/retention
- Billions more.

Absolutely critical to make Europe's access to space more easy!
A German company is about to attempt the first successful commercial vertical orbital launch from continental Europe.
The attempt heralds a new dawn as Europe seeks to end reliance on the US/SpaceX/Musk.

Europe is finally getting serious about commercial rockets
The continent’s first attempt at a commercial orbital launch could be the start of a bold new era that ends Europe’s reliance on SpaceX, Elon Musk, and the US.

The possibility of bypassing Paris when you want to go from one suburb to another, at last.
I'd like the same for TGV. I'm in the east, and if I want to go north, south or west, I have to go to Paris, take the metro or the RER, then catch another TGV at another station. It's so impractical lol.

Congrats to the Blue Origin team for reaching orbit in the first attempt with New Glenn. Landing the booster didn't work. Seems they lost control after successfully igniting for reentry towards the landing ship in the Atlantic. Next up Starship FT7 tonight at 23:00 CET.

So, Blue Origon ready to launch New Glen and SpaceX ready to launch Starship v2! If there was not so much shit in the world, this would have been a proper start of 2025!
