##Satellites, reusable rockets, #electrification ... CANNOT be accessible only when one CHILD got enough sleep.

Thx @Jacobin , @BenBurgis for making (sorta) the same point as me:

fossforce.com/2025/06/what-tru

by "sorta" I mean that nationalization only moves total control from ONE individual to ONE country. Not good for the rest of the world, even if that ONE country weren't lead by ONE Very Stable Genius

Certain infrastructures must be WORLDWIDE common good

jacobin.comWe Should Immediately Nationalize SpaceX and StarlinkThe slap fight between Donald Trump and Elon Musk has highlighted the absurdity of keeping so much of our space program and satellite internet infrastructure in the hands of a single oligarch.

Post Carbon, Transport Democratized! Calling all nerds, join our RC scale-model proof of concept for a novel wireless-powered aircraft & surface effect vehicles.

Help build better cyber-physical infrastructure for accessible, sustainable transit for all.

Stellar Energy totally upends energy availability and use. When solar & wind generation are stored in batteries, and the system is oversized enough to bridge the longest no generation periods.

Instead of how do we minimize energy use to how do we maximize use of available energy. It's a total inversion of energy use, and will lead to great increases in health.

"Peaker plants are power facilities that run only during peak demand — on the coldest days of winter or the hottest days of summer — typically less than 5% of the year. Environmentalists point to peaker plants as prime examples of environmental injustice because most are located in poor communities. Activists held an “early retirement party” on May 3 for a peaker plant on the Williamsburg waterfront in anticipation of the power authority’s report."

Urine-based green hydrogen breakthrough slashes electricity demand by 27%…

#Hydrogen is seen as one of the most promising #cleanenergy sources of the future. It burns cleanly, produces only water as a by-product, and offers a versatile way to decarbonize sectors where #electrification falls short—like heavy industry, aviation, and shipping...
