Repurposing Rocket Stages
An interesting article on Nanoracks’ plans for the conversion of spent stages into space facilities.
If Trump Is Going Down
…he should take the swamp monsters down with him.
Yes. And it wouldn’t preclude him from another run in 2024.
Youtube Reaction Videos
Are they a rejection of identity politics?
I hope so.
The Office Apocalypse
Covid didn’t cause this so much as accelerate it. These trends were inevitable. And when it comes to education, this is good news. Start funding students, and not “school systems.”
Yes, He Does
Fox News
What to do about it?
I hate to boycott Tucker, but as Ace says, that may be the only way to hit these morons between the eyes with a two by four. And yeah, maybe Newsmax and OAN could merge, or maybe if he doesn’t pull it out, Trump could start a new network.
The Pennsylvania Lawsuit
Andy McCarthy describes it. Also, ten reasons PA’s election result may be irredeemably compromised.
The Election And Space
Briefly, I don’t think a Biden win is great news, particularly given that Bridenstine has stated that he won’t serve in a Biden administration even if asked. But someone asked me on Twitter what it means for the Artemis Accords, and that will at least partially depend on who the new Secretary of State will be. I’ve heard rumors that Romney might be up for the job, as someone who would be easy to get confirmed, but that would be bad news indeed, given his opinions about space. I wrote about it during the 2012 campaign, and thought that my readers might find it of interest.
As far as a new administrator, an obvious choice would be Lori Garver, but I don’t think she’s confirmable, regardless of how the Senate ends up, just because of enmity from the space porkers like Shelby. Whether she becomes administrator or not, we can be sure that there will be a much bigger emphasis on climate for NASA.
[Afternoon update]
The transition team has been announced. Pam Melroy is the point person for NASA. If she ends up being administrator, we could do a lot worse, and have.
The Election
Well, as we feared, it’s looking like another 2000. But despite Fox’s calling it for Biden, Arizona appears to be still in play. It’s unclear what this means for the Senate race there with the gun-grabbing astronaut. And with the Republicans keeping the Senate, Biden is screwed, regardless, and Schumer’s dreams (and our nightmares) of court and Senate packing are dead.

Massive voter fraud in Wisconsin?
[Update a few minutes later]
Yes, the Democrats are trying to steal the election in Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania.
[Update Friday morning]
Milwaukee officials have some explaining to do.
The likely large-scale fraud of 2020 calls way too much attention to itself. If the data I am looking at are correct, there are people on the hard left who may want to get caught. For them, a Biden win overturned by the Supreme Court would offer a whole lot more opportunity for mayhem than they could hope to find with a faltering old liberal as president.
Sadly, he may be right.

Larry Correia is…upset. To say the least.

Some good news may be coming.
