As reflected in NASA’s Exploration Campaign, the next step in human spaceflight is the establishment of U.S. preeminence in cislunar space through the operations and the deployment of a U.S.-led Gateway. Together with the Space Launch System (SLS) and Orion, the Gateway is central to advancing and sustaining human space exploration goals and is the unifying single stepping off point in our architecture for human cislunar operations, lunar surface access and missions to Mars. The Gateway is necessary to achieving the ambitious exploration campaign goals set forth by Space Policy Directive 1. Through partnerships both domestic and international, NASA will bring innovation and new approaches to the advancement of these U.S. human spaceflight goals Source NASA

The Paris club writes off up to a 100 billon dollars of Iraq’s debt.
The people at Nasa have recently reinforced their commitment to space, the moon, and other planets by a new public relations display. The above statement is from May and you tube video from last week.
The people of earth are enriched by knowledge aquired every day by the fellowship of the discovery of the unknown and we should be grateful for its free and unfettered access. It truly is a shared goal. Good luck to the people of planet earth and may all new knowledge find place in attending the problems of this world.
The flag is still there. No it’s not the Cumberland River ,it’s the local concrete proprietor who hoisted this flag above the gravel pit they recently reclaimed with some seeding. The flag however placed , more than two decades ago and assaulted , taken and harassed at nite for a long time. The owner prevailed through a process of years. Greasing the pole, making it higher, numbers of trips, and flags. In recent years,there have been few vandalisms noted and it has become a local fixture. The main man in the story is a man named Henry an person from Scandinavia. Now elderly and retired both him and his wife Clara ( a former city mayor) are noted for both takeing (enterprise) and giving (jobs ,fundraising for skateboard parks, etc) they are less public now and have a comfortable retirement home on the same mountain side that supported the gravel business. Henry is seen to frequent the Middlesbrough Pub for light refreshments and lunchs.The pub occupies the same hillside and a couple of miles down. Now thats building a convient life through hard work and perseverance .We hope they both enjoy their golden years that they deserve. And is not always the result of efforts in the old world; where in part they and we come.
