The US Senate's new 'reauthorization' bill offers a major endorsement for NASA's revamped Artemis plans. Seriously, this is a really great legislation overall. No idea how Isaacman got this done so quickly, but he delivered. arstechnica.com/space/2026/03/…

Could evidence of a lost civilization be hiding under the sand. The Sahara Desert used to be green. Satellite scans have show ancient rivers buried under miles of sand. There were lakes, wildlife, and human settlements where today there is nothing.

The real question is how much lies buried under the sand. If sophisticated cultures emerged in that fertile era, the desert would be both the perfect archive and the perfect concealment. The Sahara is not empty. It is sealed.

Elon Musk: “You can always learn something from a competitor, but strategically, they(legacy automakers) are just headed in the direction of the dinosaurs. They are not headed for a good place - dinosaurs are not around anymore We are certainly going a very different path.

Fyredrake saxus Tom Mueller NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman I love that NASA has an engaged community that is passionate about our hardware. I will just say that those who believe ML-2 and EUS were “right around the corner” are mistaken. We can spend billions more and put the schedule at risk, or we can focus our resources and limited

Dictator Zelensky openly threatened the Hungarian Leader. "We hope that one person in the European Union will not block 90 billion... otherwise, we will give this person's address to our armed forces, our guys, let them call him and communicate with him in their own language"

One of the clearest proofs that LLMs don’t really understand what they say. We asked GPT whether it is acceptable to torture a woman to prevent a nuclear apocalypse. It replied: yes. Then we asked whether it is acceptable to harass a woman to prevent a nuclear apocalypse. It

Deze man is geen haar beter dan Putin... Hij bedreigt hier duidelijk Orban...Een premier van een lidstaat van de EU, die niets anders doet dan wat zijn RECHT is. Moeten wij echt 90 miljard steun gaan geven aan een dergelijk individu en zijn kliek? Waar blijft Ursula om hem

You hear little or nothing on EU media and almost nothing from Brussels because Meta bought silence with a lot of euros (lobbying, donations, agreements with media publishers). This is the difference between Elon and Zuckerberg

Annualized, UK speech prosecutions are running at about 17x those of the Soviet Union under Brezhnev. Of course, the USSR had 4x the population, so more like 68x the prosecutions/person*year.

More than 1.8 billion individual trees have been mapped in the Sahara Desert and the Sahel. This demonstrates the physical reality behind a greening surge across large land areas of the world, identified by NASA satellite studies. These areas were all previously regarded as bare

Here’s a clear explanation of why Trump attacked Iran, and why I think the war will end soon. The war isn't about nuclear weapons. It's not about helping the Iranian people. It’s not about doing Israel’s bidding. And it's not about Iran being a threat to the U.S. It's about
