Apollo astronaut's granddaughter opens immersive moonwalk experience in Dallas
For the folks at Intutive Machines, from one of my favorite poems:

T is not too late to seek a newer world.

Push off, and sitting well in order smite

The sounding furrows; for my purpose holds

To sail beyond the sunset, and the baths

Of all the western stars, until I die.

It may be that the gulfs will wash us down:

It may be we shall touch the Happy Isles,

And see the great Achilles, whom we knew.

Tho' much is taken, much abides; and tho'

We are not now that strength which in old days

Moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are;

One equal temper of heroic hearts,

Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will

To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.

From Ulysses by Alfred Lord Tennyson

Odysseus still lives and will for another 10 to 20 hours.

I got a chance to see the movie Oppenheimer, based on the book American Prometheus, and I have to say that I was less than impressed. The time jumping was confusing, to say the least. Too little about building the bomb and too much on the main character’s “persecution” for flirting with communism. His constant terror of a global thermonuclear war would have had more resonance in the 1980s than the present day. The movie was about an hour too long too.
The first US moon landing in decades validates NASA’s commercial goals

Shortly after 1 a.m. EST on Feb. 15, the second attempt of a commercial lunar landing mission lifted off on board a SpaceX Falcon 9. The Nova-C lander, also dubbed the Odysseus, successfully landed near the lunar south pole on Thursday.

(This article was turned in before the news that the Nova-C had actually landed on its side. So far, the Hill has not updated the piece to reflect this fact. I hope that this will happen in due course. In the meantime, my apologies. )

(The update has been made thanks to my esteemed editor.)

I just turned in my piece to @thehill that will cover the @Int_Machines moon landing. But a couple of observations in advance The last minute scramble to upload a software patch to bring the NASA lidar hardware on line was a moment of high drama. It also proves that CLPS is a partnership between the space agency and the new space commercial companies. The biggest loser of the @Int_Machines moon landing has to be Russia's Vladimir Putin. Russia's failed moon landing contrasts with the American success. Putin needs to learn that national greatness resides in space and not ill-advised military adventures.

Comedian Shane Gillis Set For ‘SNL’ Hosting Debut
Trump’s revival of a US missile defense plan is a job for the Space Force

Recently, while campaigning in New Hampshire, former President Donald Trump proposed reviving an oldie but goodie from the Reagan era. He said, “I will build an Iron Dome over our country, a state-of-the-art missile defense shield made in the USA. We do it for other countries. We help other countries, we build, we don’t do it for ourselves.”

Trump invoked the spirit of Reagan when he went on to say, “You know, Reagan proposed that many years ago, Star Wars. He proposed it many, many years ago. But at that time, there was no technology. It was just, like, it looked good. But we have unbelievable technology. We should have then.”

It's Black History Month, but what about Black Alternate History Month?

On a December day in 1967, a pilot whose jet fighter is in the process of cracking up ejects a moment sooner and therefore lives when he otherwise might have died. A life that would have ended on the tarmac at Edwards Air Force Base continues on. Six years later, Major Robert Lawrence, United States Air Force, becomes the first black American to walk on the Moon.
