THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:
Stopping anthropogenic climate change is terraforming on "easy" mode.
Until we can sort out global warming we have no business considering terraforming Mars.

The bot is making a lot of noise about Galileo, the EU GPS. This is because Galileo is being very weird and is clearly running on outdated orbital data. It might still be accurate enough though. This was announced very cryptically last week that there would be “deviations”. Galileo […]

OK, I'm going to hammer on this one. Five days might not seem like much to get 700,000 signature, but I've seen petitions get to 1 million in a day to save baby seals, so why not this one.

I've written an unhealthy amount of words on "the cloud" and specifically Europe's woes. In the post below I tie many articles together into a hopefully useful overview.

ESA reports K482SA reentered between 0604 UITC (seen by radar on pass over Europe) and 0732 UTC (not seen by European radars on the next orbit). Roskosmos reports that reentry was at 0624 UTC over the Indian Ocean, but with no details on how they conclude that.

LEO sat disposal is a new environmental disaster brewing, mostly because of the actions of a single private company, but really, it's everyone's operating procedure in LEO. Just burn those sats up in Earth's atmosphere when they're done! They just disappear! And if they don't, they probably […]

During my time in the European Parliament, I attended a crucial final negotiation between Portuguese, Danish, German, Romanian and French MEPs, only to discover there had been a mixup and we would have no interpretation (translators) for the meeting.

"Make war not just unthinkable, but materially impossible." Today marks 75 years since the Schuman Declaration.
A bit of European history to be proud of. Let's cherish it.
