I was at the Space Settlement Summit over the weekend, and didn’t have a computer with me. Sorry for not warning on Friday.
The Danchenko Indictment
…shows that the Democrat Party manipulated the FBI.
I don’t think they minded being manipulated. I doubt that the Republican Party could have pulled that off.
The Future Of Space
Tart commentary from Jim Bennett (who I’ll probably see this evening at the Space Settlement Summit in Beverly Hills).
It’s A Bad Day For Democrats
…which means it’s a great day for America.

De Santis appears to me to be trying to capture the best features of Trump, while avoiding the terrible ones.
NASA Safety
An article about Homer Hickam and Yours Truly. They get this wrong, though: “…while Hickam and Simberg may disagree on the value of safety, they may agree that NASA could not afford to suffer such losses, especially considering pressures from Congress and the general public.”
Homer and I do not in fact disagree on the value of safety. Here is his review of the book.

[Update Saturday afternoon]
Problem solved. This is kind of amazing. Petersen is a leader, and a hero.
[Bumped]
Covid And Climate
So much for the cirrus-clouds-from-airplanes theory.
Starship
…is still not understood.
[Update Friday afternoon]
The latest SLS follies: This isn’t insane at all.
