The fact that #EVs in #Australia and transitioning all #transport to EV, powered by #renewable #energy will be a massive gain for #Australia’s autonomy. No longer relying on #foreign nations for our energy and transport requirements. #auspol.

@ProfRayWills welcome!

How long are you here? Would you like to catch up?

SpaceX had four rockets on four pads and two Dragons on orbit today—as CRS-26 Dragon departed the @space_station with Crew-5 Dragon still attached to the orbiting lab, Falcon Heavy rolled out of the hangar, two Falcon 9’s readied for launch, and Ship 24 was stacked onto Booster 7

@engineers_feed @elonmusk

In a vacuum, yes, they already exist.

Hall effect thrusters & related are already in use.

The HDLT & similar ion engines are attempting to make them more efficient, powerful & not require a plate.

The Met Office confirms 2022 was the UK’s hottest year on record🌡️📈...With an average temperature above 10C for the first time.

It says climate change means a once in every 500 year event could now happen every 3 or 4 years.

"Ben Batros quit his job as a lawyer working on accountability for international crimes like war crimes, genocide and human trafficking. Why? “With climate change, if we get that wrong, it basically doesn't matter what else we get right.."

[Sophie McNeill @Sophiemcneill]

It’s unbelievable that we are slowing the spread of accurate data, rather than slowing the spread of a dangerous transmissible virus.

“…slowing the spread of science, by [the Aus gov] preventing much of that work [#COVID data] from being published.” https://t.co/IwpS7hGROV

@fancy_4n6 I'm sorry to hear it. 😞

I hope you feel a lot better soon.

Some very nice B&W photos coming from the S Korean Danuri Lunar orbiter. Here is one, with optics fog removed and tonally adjusted for detail visibility on the Earth and Moon separately.

A Brisbane-based start-up has launched in space.

@SpaceValiant sent the valve component of one of its rocket thrusters into orbit earlier this week on a @SpaceX mission from the Kennedy Space Center in Florida.

A plume of hot material rising through the Martian mantle seems the likely explanation for the red planet's seismic and volcanic activity, according to a recent paper.
