The state of this reentry and descent of the Long March 12A is something to behold. But despite this failed attempt, the key point is that Chinese reusable launchers are coming.

“The Penrose tiling somehow knew about quantum error correction before the invention of the quantum computer.” —Latham Boyle
Never-Repeating Tiles Can Safeguard Quantum Information | Quanta Magazine
Two researchers have proved that Penrose tilings, famous patterns that never repeat, are mathematically equivalent to a kind of quantum error correction.

Europa Clipper has imaged interstellar comet 3I/Atlas with its ultraviolet spectrometer!
This is only the 3rd interstellar object discovered so far: an icy wanderer from a distant planetary system, and now we’ll learn more about what it’s made of!!

A crazy event in the report: “Following the retreat of South Sawyer Glacier, a landslide in southeast Alaska’s Tracy Arm in August 2025 generated a tsunami that swept across the narrow fjord and ran nearly 1,600 feet up the other side. Fortunately, the fjord was empty of cruise ships.”

This -- a model bill to effectively decimate non-STEM research by requiring 3-3 teaching loads outside of "STEM or Americanism and western civilization" -- seems...extremely bad but also quite plausible.
Proposed Model Bill Would Change College Tenure, Teaching, & Research
Three conservative groups have proposed model legislation that would dramatically change faculty tenure paths, teaching loads, research activities and hiring authority
