“The fate of two planned giant telescopes in Hawaii and Chile rests with the director of the National Science Foundation (NSF), after a review of the U.S.-led projects, each vying for $1.6 billion in NSF funding, did not pick a clear favorite.” science.org/content/article/…

NSF panel says proposed giant telescopes would swamp agency’s budget

TMT and GMT projects remain in limbo after review panel leaves final choice to NSF leadership

PACBI - BDS movement@PACBI29 Mar 2024
Palestinians respond to the nine @Eurovision contestants' statement.
PACBI, a founding member of the largest Palestinian coalition that is leading the global BDS movement, welcomes the refusal of nine Eurovision contestants to remain silent. However, by participating in Eurovision alongside apartheid Israel while it carries out its live-streamed genocide against 2.3 million Palestinians in Gaza, armed and enabled by many European governments, the contestants would be complicit in artwashing these crimes. Feigning symbolic gestures of support while dismissing the call of the oppressed reflects a patronising and colonial attitude on the part of the contestants that is familiar to Palestinians, and many oppressed communities globally. Israel is defying the World Court and the UN Security council. This means everyone has a responsibility to end complicity in supporting or covering up its crimes. We call on all Eurovision contestants to withdraw from the contest, as a meaningful gesture of solidarity and to fulfil this moral responsibility to do no harm

Cool to see our piece up on the @HSNatSci twitter - read the Essay @jordanbimm and I wrote that grapples with what looking at the capitalist impulse to buy-and-sell things that have been to space 🚀
Historical Studies in the Natural Sciences@HSNatSci11 Oct 2023
Replying to @HSNatSci
This paper links beautifully with @jordanbimm and Eleanor S. Armstrong's essay on Space Auctions. Bimm and Armstrong look at the growing trend of auctioning both memorabilia and official documentation from space programs and ask, is there a problem with this trend?

As Hawaiians wake up to the news of Palestinian anticolonial resistance in Gaza to Israeli settler colonialism, remember that—from Hawaiʻi to Palestine—occupation is a crime. A lāhui that stands for decolonization and deoccupation should also stand behind freedom for Palestine.
