Just a Youtube VOD link for those that missed it and or want to skim it for screenshots and to rewatch the canyon run (timestamped link).

It takes almost a FULL MINUTE to reach the out of bounds at the middle of the map with the Transport Heli. Every single map needs an air space like this, especially if it has Jets on it. Finally, you can strafe and not feel claustrophobic. 10/10 air space, fish bowl effect eradicated.

Why do people find it so hard to accept the public really wants to vote for Reform?

We knew it was coming. The polls were clear. They've voted like this now and will likely do so at the next election. This is what people want and yet there is this kind of head scratching going on. Threads and comments appearing with sentiment like:

"why on earth would they do this?"

"don't they know they're being brainwashed by the right wing media?"

"don't they know Farage is a grifter?"

"don't they know they will lose the NHS?"

"why won't the working class vote the way I think they should?"

At the same time we have a thread asking "Why is Birmingham most likely going to elect a man who was jailed for five years in 1999 for conspiring to bomb the British consulate in Yemen?"

So maybe, a lot of people in the country don't like the way the country is going and they want change and they don't think Tory's (in for the last 14 years) or labour (currently in) are going to do it. Hell they gave them both a chance.

Is it really so hard to accept that people might want to vote for a candidate who is finally promising to give them want they want, even if they know he's a bit dodgy?

A prototype of a powerful new lithium-fed electric thruster that could one day help send humans to Mars was successfully tested at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory.

Known as a magnetoplasmadynamic (MPD) thruster, the thruster runs on lithium metal vapor and is capable of reaching power levels far beyond today’s electric propulsion systems.

During a recent test at JPL’s Electric Propulsion Lab, the thruster achieved power levels of up to 120 kilowatts, more than 25 times that of the highest-power electric thrusters on any current NASA spacecraft.

​​The JPL team has been developing the thruster for the past 2½ years under NASA’s Space Nuclear Propulsion project, based at the agency’s Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama. The test took place on Feb. 24, 2026, and its results will inform upcoming tests.

While much more development is needed before the technology can be used in space, this milestone marks an important step toward nuclear electric propulsion systems that could reduce travel time to Mars and lower risk for astronauts on long-duration missions.
