Trump has lifted sanctions on Iranian oil, so he is literally paying Iran not to surrender. This on top of also doing the same with Iran's ally, Russia.

The USA is now directly funding two of the three nations Trump claims to most oppose, right after Trump lifted import restrictions on China.

All of the senior military brass warned not to attack Iran, which is why Trump turned to the Fox TV cabinet instead.

And of course, Rupert Murdoch never met a war he didn't like.

I presented at the local planetary journal club this morning about the 3 articles I co-authored for The Conversation in the past weeks about the effects that one million satellites would have on the night sky, the atmosphere, and the orbital environment (spoiler alert: all very very bad)

And one on light pollution that I thought would get published today but might not be out until after the weekend.
