A thing of beauty—Voyager 1 is calling home right now and the Madrid station is also connected to Artemis 2. You can watch the deep space network live anytime you want.

Good morning!!! We're currently tanking the Artemis II rocket. Propellant is flowing into the core stage -- slow fill for LH2 (the finicky one) and fast fill for LOX.

Thirteen people have died in federal immigration custody in the first three months of this year, and 46 have died since President Trump took office last year and began his mass deportation campaign, according to death reports and news releases made public by ICE.

Here's a lesson in right-wing propaganda (which is what Western Journal is) when it comes to movies: • if a movie is unsuccessful, they will try to find a way to make it seem like it's "woke." • if a movie is successful they will try to find a way to make it seem like it's "anti-woke."

FWIW absolutely no one I know who has expertise in spaceflight or planetary exploration thinks this is either remotely plausible or a good idea to attempt on such a timeline. The dominant reaction is somewhere on the spectrum between mockery and dismay. Real, important science was cancelled for this

Oh, and also—for most people, seeing ICE agents at the airport is frustrating. But for others, their presence poses a significant threat to their safety and wellbeing. Airports have always been more dangerous for marginalized people, and bringing ICE agents in is even worse.

Stunned by all the “ICE isn’t gonna do anything more than what TSA already does” rhetoric. Untrained white supremacists who’ve been told by bosses they’re not subject to laws will have POC and women lined up in front of them to grope and abuse and they don’t even have to chase them.

There are at least three major news stories about sexual assault and abuse of power by men in prominent positions this week. Government, labor, academia; the culture is everywhere, and women disproportionally bear the weight of the consequences. If this week feels extra heavy, be kind to yourself.
