He included a link to his plan, which is not dissimilar from the “Apollo on Steroids” architecture he championed two decades ago, but was later found to be unaffordable within NASA’s existing budget. “There need to be consequences” Other panel members offered more general advice. Clayton Swope, deputy director of the Aerospace Security Project for the Center for Strategic and International Studies, said…

In fact, a 120-million-year-old bird specimen housed at China’s Shandong Tianyu Museum of Nature may be the only fossilized remains of its kind. “There are thousands of bird fossils at the Shandong Tianyu Museum, but on my last trip to visit their collections, this one really jumped out at me,” Chicago’s Field Museum…

In parts of Morocco, reservoirs have fallen to record low levels. The government has enacted water restrictions in major cities, including limits on household use, and curtailed irrigation for farmers. Water systems in Lebanon…
