Dual use: If we like it or not, all civilian sats have defence-related uses.
This video shows the Russian Arctic Metagaz LNG carrier exploding after reportedly being hit by Ukranian drones. It comes from @eumetsat.int's Meteosat-12, a weather satellite. Weather is civil, but we see so much more.

Starting tomorrow, you can watch fish traffic via an underwater camera livestreaming from an Utrecht canal. If you spot waiting 🐟, you can ping an operator to open the Weerdsluis lock gate & let them through. Highly recommend this for easing elevated stress levels, or if you just like helping fish

Artemis 2 and the Helium problem
So, NASA wants to send humans back to the Moon for the first time in over 50 years. Exciting stuff, right? Well, not so fast—because the agency has run into a problem…
