This is on the scale of the Apollo Program and Manhattan Project when measured as a fraction of GDP. This kind of investment only happens when the science is carefully vetted and people believe it will succeed and be completely transformative. I agree it’s the right time.

My greetings to Ukrainians and all Christians celebrating Easter today.
It is a holiday that reminds us of the power of the spirit that will not allow darkness to prevail. It will not allow the will to be overshadowed. It unites families, nations, and continents.
Now there is no night or day when Russian terror does not try to break our lives. Last night, they again fired missiles and «Shahed» drones against people.
But we defend ourselves, we endure, our spirit does not give up and knows that it is possible to avert death. Life can prevail.
May all prayers for protection from evil be heard today. May faith unite all good hearts and strengthen those who defend their homes. And may true peace come closer for our entire Ukraine and all the nations that suffer from wars.
Have a peaceful Easter!

I don’t say it often, but everyone should watch this video in its entirety.
The use of 'brave' as an adjective has become almost disposable these days, overused to the point of meaninglessness.
However, this video—filmed within 48 hours of learning that one of her greatest nightmares had become a reality—demonstrates remarkable bravery by Yulia Navalnaya, the wife of Alexei Navalny.
The power and clarity of her message and the decision to put herself directly in the crosshairs of Vladimir Putin and his security services is an example of extraordinary sacrifice.
Россия будет свободной!
