China successfully launches three satellites
China today ended a long pause in launches since the failure of its Long March 5 rocket in July and placed in orbit three military satellites using a smaller rocket not used since 2004.
The use of such a rocket is most intriguing. Meanwhile, no word yet on when launches will resume on their other more up-to-date rockets, including their new and most powerful Long March 5.
On Christmas Eve 1968 three Americans became the first humans to visit another world. What they did to celebrate was unexpected and profound, and will be remembered throughout all human history. Genesis: the Story of Apollo 8, Robert Zimmerman's classic history of humanity's first journey to another world, tells that story, and it is now available as both an ebook and an audiobook, both with a foreword by Valerie Anders and a new introduction by Robert Zimmerman.
The ebook is available everywhere for $5.99 (before discount) at amazon, or direct from my ebook publisher, ebookit. If you buy it from ebookit you don't support the big tech companies and the author gets a bigger cut much sooner.
The audiobook is also available at all these vendors, and is also free with a 30-day trial membership to Audible.
"Not simply about one mission, [Genesis] is also the history of America's quest for the moon... Zimmerman has done a masterful job of tying disparate events together into a solid account of one of America's greatest human triumphs."--San Antonio Express-News

Now lets throw this into the Chinese satellite mix:

Read this article above and understand where the world is headed if America is allowed to remain weak militarily. The Chinese are on a technology stealing binge and a military build up with the end goal being world domination. Everything that they do now and have done in the past indicates that it is so. America and its weak political and economic attitude of the past 50 years towards China will have its consequences.
The only solution? Creating absolute and certain fear of military and economic annihilation in the minds of the Chinese leadership. Without it this scenario is certain.
And I just noticed this little component of the proposed Chinese world domination puzzle.
