Trump's military escapade has cost every American $103. The result? A toll on the Strait of Hormuz that will impact everyone's cost of living.

The blue orb is so precious. Perhaps this mission will remind enough of us lodging on its surface to better protect it?

50 years on from last time but this journey to the Moon still captures the imagination. What is it? Something to do with distance perhaps?
The ISS is only 250 miles from Earth whereas Artemis II with humans inside is, as I write, 102,300 from Earth in under two days!

First 6 days of Iran war cost $11.3 billion, Pentagon tells Congress Officials briefed the Senate Appropriations subcommittee on defense. One senator said he believes the cost is higher since the figure didn't include aspects like munitions replacement.

So Iran so far has cost every family in the US some $134. And that's before all the hikes from oil and gas is considered.

Indeed but possibly easy to judge as a bystander? I would imagine when you're in a situation like that with highly-charged nerves in the room you often do stupid things you later regret. I've had plenty of foot in mouth situations over the years.

Pouring down again. The Februaries I remember as a youth were drier: the rolling 10-year average in 1989 was 26.2mm. It is now 48.8mm, an 86% increase!!
Note there is the odd exception ie 3.7mm in 2023
