This has been my message for years. Marijuana can SAVE lives not take lives.
It has been so upsetting to watch. Opioids kill. One of my closest friends died one week ago from it. 51 years old. Tragic. forbes.com/sites/tomangell/2…

As of today, human spaceflight is half as old as human air flight.
Wright brother’s first flight was Dec 17, 1903.
Yuri Gagarin’s launch was April 12, 1961.
12/17/1903 to 4/12/1961 = 20,936 days
4/12/1961 to 8/7/2018 = 20,936 days

It's very rare to have aviation accident investigation agencies criticize each other. Today, France's BEA did just that, saying Egypt hasn't adequately investigated a 2016 crash in the Mediterranean. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

Oh, these are #organics in my neighborhood... Methane swells each summer and ancient carbon-compounds locked in rocks. I haven't found life on Mars, but signs say…we’re on the right track. go.nasa.gov/2HwATPi

For those interested in deciphering an early crash probe, these show what a high-angle crash looks like: tight debris field, little far-flung wreckage/burning. Even w/o security video, investigators would consider steep dive a possibility. Prayers for the dead and their kin. 1/2 xitter.cf/jaclynFOX5ATL/status/9…
AERIAL IMAGES OF CRASH:
Heartbreaking images of the Hercules C-130 cargo Puerto Rico Intl Guard aircraft that crashed at 11:28 a.m. after leaving the Savannah Intl Airport. Military will not confirm number on board or deceased, though @AP reports at least 5 dead. @FOX5Atlanta
