Another cool thing about Artemis II: the potential knock-on effect of increased awareness about the effects of (peri)menopause, through the social media feed of the impressive Dr. Catherine Hansen, married to Canadian astronaut Jeremy Hansen. #womenshealth #srhr www.instagram.com/drcatherineh...

It's really worth watching the moment when Jeremy Hansen suggests that a crater on the moon - a "bright spot" we'll be able to see from earth - be named Carroll for Carroll Taylor Wiseman, the late wife of commander Reid Wiseman. www.youtube.com/watch?v=b1Cw...

Canada hasn't taken delivery of one F-35 fighter yet, but several of our F-35-using allies are already working on a generation of planes to come after. We might well join them ... and that could make it a lot harder to ditch F-35s for Swedish Gripens right now. thelogic.co/news/exclusi...

Does anyone here know about how long it takes for a BlueSky account reported for impersonation to be stopped? I do not love that he is using my name, photo and biographical details to begin with, but love even less that he has blocked me from seeing whatever he is doing with it. #journalismsky

There is an account on here that has ripped off my photo, name and bio. Please report it for impersonation if you come across it (as I did) and if you want to follow me, follow the real me @joannasmith.bsky.social (I know that seems obvious but 15 people are following a fake me named Wesley, so.)
