"The timing in particular was not great, with public sentiment for the ultra-rich — who are currently plundering the federal government, (...) driving inflation and living costs for average Americans higher — reaching historic lows. In particularly ironic context, Trump's new administration is forcing #NASA to undermine the history of women's spaceflight by taking down web pages about women in leadership and comics about women astronauts."

Reading about @arthurfox 's album called Orbit and Sam Lawler's (@sundogplanets) discussion of the orbits of Saturn's newly-discovered moons brought up a memory from my childhood.

While driving through Manitoba on the Trans-Canada highway on vacation in 1966, my family passed many signs exhorting us to "Put your trash into Orbit!"

Now it looks like the trash is coming back....from orbit.

"Part of the greenhouse effect that warms the air near Earth’s surface also cools the upper parts of the atmosphere where space starts and #satellites zip around in low orbit.

The cooling reduces the drag on the millions of pieces of human-made debris and satellites." Less drag means it takes longer for #SpaceJunk to burn up in the atmosphere.

The greenhouse effect makes part of the upper atmosphere cooler and less dense, reducing the drag on space junk that ultimately causes it to burn up.
