What a woman! As much as I denigrate "science" as it relates to Earth-bound climates, a deserving woman of a more mature science, astronomy, is honored this week as the leading edge of space-based astronomy, who, among other accomplishments, spearheaded the Hubble telescope project. A new telescope, named in her honor, will soon launch to examine, more accurately than any telescope in space or on Earth, the nature of dark matter.

Nancy Grace Roman now has a supreme view of all, having passed from us on Christmas Day of 2018. In her beginning career, she earned her PhD at the University of Chicago, and spent several years thereafter, but never attained tenured status, only because she was a woman! Nancy left to join NASA in 1959. The rest is historic. Here's her story:

Women astronauts is one way America gets rid of their women by sending them out into space.

Usually women don't succeed well in USA.

That's because we've been sniffing Europe's butt for the past 140 years, and, unfortunately, liking the aroma. Time for USA to manifest our destiny intellectually, not cartographically. In that respect, Trump is short-sighted.

Yes. Here's an updated cartoon I created and published in a non-fiction volume in 2019 that is the origin of my username, titled "Faux Law," a treatment of examination of constitutional language, written in the 18th century, but interpreted incorrectly by the 21st. Words evolve, but that does not mean they should be read by an "evolved" dictionary. Best to understand words in the context of when they were written, and we almost never do.
