@robert_zubrin thanks for the follow Robert.
I have a question. (Actually many)
With SpaceX being the only lunar HLS system, & no other viable, affordable options, even on the horizon, is there any current Need or justification for lunar gateway ?
Surely LEO Gateway is next.

Not one of the 16 graphs showing Earth's planetary vital signs is moving in the right direction. Instead, they all point to an acceleration of global climate breakdown: Greenhouse gases, ocean heat, and sea levels are surging, while glaciers, ice sheets, and reflectivity plunge. 7 vital signs are at record extremes.
This is not a warning for the future, it is a diagnosis of the present
Phase out fossil fuels now

Hard to think of a wilder product unveiling. Not sure how quickly drivers are going to be leaping over each other in traffic, but damn, this was a cool way to introduce Roadster to the world.

Can hover 6x as long on the Moon as on Earth. Recharging the COPVs a minor inconvenience (/s).

"Musk cut off Ukraine!" 🙄
Except he didn't. Starshield is not Starlink. It's the military network, and Musk says the US government controls it and sets the limits.
Funny how this drops three weeks before the midterms. Feels like another October hit piece to me. 🤔

To fund the Burnham Government’s priorities, abandon Hinkley Point C, Sizewell C and Wylfa new #nuclear
Britain’s three new nuclear projects – Hinkley Point C, Sizewell C and Wylfa – now depend on public money, above all from the National Wealth Fund, which has committed up to £36.6bn to Sizewell C alone: about twice what it can lend to all its other projects. Abandoning all three would save consumers £93–133bn and free the NWF to back renewables, energy storage and the government’s regional and industrial priorities.

We don’t ask pilots to pay for airplane fuel. We don’t ask cops to pay for guns, bullets or handcuffs. And we don’t ask doctors or nurses to pay for medicine or surgical equipment. So then why is it ok to ask teachers to supply their own classrooms?

JAXA is preparing to launch one of its most ambitious missions yet, and no one is talking about it! Meet MMX, or the Martian Moons eXploration mission.
MMX will launch in eleven days to study the Martian moons, land on Phobos, collect samples, and deploy a rover named Idefix! After spending three years in Martian orbit, MMX will return to Earth with the samples!
This is all being done in collaboration with NASA, ESA, DLR, and CNES.
Godspeed, JAXA and its partners! I hope this mission exceeds expectations!
