Things are looking bad these days. We have a rightwing lunatic as President who thinks he’s a king. We are entangled in a war with religious fanatics who are gleefully tearing down the global economy by closing passage through a crucial, narrow waterway. We have a Congress that is supine and subservient to our Mad King. Prices of everything are spiraling up because of aforementioned war.
Time for some cheerful news! Watch this brief clip made by the four astronauts aboard Artemis 2, which has already gone further into space than anyone else. They passed the old record of near 250,000 miles, and they will be the first humans to see the dark side of the moon. That’s happening about now.
They are having a good time.

This is such a thrilling voyage to the moon. A second important step. Here is a link to Pink Floyd’s “Dark Side of the Moon.” https://youtu.be/DLOth-BuCNY?si=cyNbCeQV285vtkAD. I listened to this albumn years ago, and used in my university courses. What today’s astronauts said about our home, the Earth is so important given the wars that were started by two mad men. To help, listen to the astronauts and Pink Floyd.
