Worth a read. The intro about 1920s Soviet agriculture head dismissing the science of genetics is a parable for our times re: climate change.

Trump administration has asked NASA employees to draw up plans to end at least two major satellite missions.

Hey folks, don’t feed your cats any kind of raw poultry, whether bits from some you’re preparing for yourself or commercially produced raw cat food. And don’t let your cats out. Bird flu kills cats, even if your cats don’t hunt birds, they could be exposed through feces or shared water or dead birds
SCOOP: Cats that became infected with bird flu might have spread the virus to humans in the same household and vice versa, according to data that briefly appeared online in a report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention but then abruptly vanished.

Deep Space Network operations have moved to backup control center at Goldstone. This is first and only time in the history of the DSN that has occurred. It has been in 24/7/365 operation at JPL since 1964. DSN talks to spacecraft beyond Earth orbit, including the Voyagers and Mars rovers. #eatonfire
