That’s NASA’s estimate of how much additional funding it would take to get back to the moon by 2024 (doing it The NASA Way, of course). Eric Berger has the story.

A new type has been discovered, which was previously mistaken with Alzheimer’s. Hope this can help lead to a breakthrough.
Commemorating the tens of millions killed, and the many more lives blighted, should be the only way to observe May Day. As Glenn says, communists should get just as much societal opprobrium as Nazis.
...the size of the submarine from Fantastic Voyage. Racquel Welch presumably not included.
We’ve never watched it, but I’ll take her word for it that it’s porn.
Thoughts on ending the matriarchy.
This just has me shaking my head:
The Don Pedro hydropower project, just west of Yosemite National Park, has been churning out carbon-free electricity for nearly a century. As the Tuolumne River flows from the Sierra Nevada to the Central Valley, it passes through Don Pedro Dam, spinning four turbine generators.
None of the electricity is counted toward California’s push for more renewable energy on its power grid. A new bill advanced by state lawmakers last week would change that — and it’s being opposed by environmental groups, who say it would undermine the state’s landmark clean energy law by limiting the need to build solar farms and wind turbines.
That law itself is nuts.
Can/will Joe Biden separate himself from these five? And no mention of giving root to China for federal-employee data.

He’s been accused of sexual assault.
I’m no fan, but (unlike the Left) I’ll wait to see how credible the accusation is before I render judgment. For instance, did he tell anyone else at the time?
