Tense Situation On North Korea - Not Like Cold War Cuban Missile Crisis However

Robert Walker at Science 2.0 blogs - 14 hours ago
With all the tense situation about North Korea, I thought I should do a new post about the situation there. I'm doing this as part of my "Doomsday Debunked" articles I do to help people who are often very scared that the world will end in one way or another. First this is not a risk of global nuclear war. It’s nothing like the Cuban missile crisis. There we had two major powers facing each other on a hair-trigger. And each had the capability of destroying the other’s military capabilities. read more

Why We Can't Use Hubble To See The Lunar Lander - How Could We See It In High Resolution?

Robert Walker at Science 2.0 blogs - 14 hours ago
Have you wondered why we can't see the Apollo landing sites from Earth? Moon is so far away that even the ISS at around 108 meters in length would span just over one pixel if Hubble were to photograph it on the Moon at its highest resolution. From NASA: *Can Hubble see the Apollo landing sites on the Moon?* No, Hubble cannot take photos of the Apollo landing sites. “An object on the Moon 4 meters (4.37 yards) across, viewed from HST, would be about 0.002 arcsec in size. The highest resolution instrument currently on HST is the Advanced Camera for Surveys at 0.03 arcsec. So anythin... more »

How China Would Win a War Against America: Kill Washington's Satellites

Zachary Keck at The National Interest - 14 hours ago
*Zachary Keck* *Security, Asia* And they have new weapons to do it. While much attention has been paid to China’s development of traditional ground-based antisatellite weapons, a more nefarious threat to America’s space assets continues to receive far less attention. In a new article, “Stalkers in Space: Defeating the Threat,” in *Strategic Studies Quarterly*, Brian Chow, formerly senior physical scientist at the RAND Corporation, discusses China’s “space stalkers,” which he calls a “game-changing threat” to America’s satellites. “Since 2008, China has been developing a new co-o... more »

Could America Really Stop a North Korean Nuclear Missile Attack?

Dave Majumdar at The National Interest - 14 hours ago
*Dave Majumdar* *Security, Asia* The answer might shock you. Would the United States be able to intercept a North Korean intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) launched at the American homeland? The answer is probably not. “We have as much chance of intercepting a North Korean missile as the president does of scoring a hole in one,” arms control expert Joseph Cirincione, president of the Ploughshares Fund told *The National Interest*. “Possible, but highly unlikely.” The U.S. national missile defense system—particularly the component designed to protect the American homelan... more »

What Russia's Sputnik Launch Can Teach America about North Korea's Missiles

Dave Majumdar at The National Interest - 14 hours ago
*Dave Majumdar* *Security, * Now is not the time to panic. While the situations are not identical, the current standoff between the United States and North Korea bears some resemblance to the early days of the Cold War. Indeed, the current crisis—which was sparked by North Korea test launching an ICBM—bears some resemblance to the developments of the late 1950s and early 1960s. In the immediate aftermath of the Second World War, the United States assumed that it would be the world’s economic and technologically dominant power—which it was. However, that confidence was shaken on... more »

Owen Gray at Northern Reflections - 15 hours ago

As Donald Trump edges closer to a confrontation with North Korea, Giroux's take on Trump rings truer than ever: Ignorance is a terrible wound when it is self-inflicted, but it becomes a dangerous plague when the active refusal to know combines with power. President Trump’s lies, lack of credibility, woefully deficient knowledge of the world, and unbridled narcissism have suggested for some time that he lacks the intelligence, judgment and capacity for critical though... more »

The Real Korean War

Bruce K. Gagnon at Organizing Notes - 17 hours ago
The Korean War (1950-1953) was a bloody conflict. It left Korea, North and South, with several million dead and the UN forces (led by the US) involved in the fighting with over 100,000 casualties. But despite fighting as intense and as violent as any other conflict since World War Two, Korea has always been history's 'Forgotten War'. The US to this day refuses to sign a peace treaty with North Korea - thus the war legally continues. On July 27, 1953 the US signed an Armistice (ceasefire) with North Korea but that is it. Thus the continuous US-South Korean war games right along t... more »

He is well-informed and is good at communicating his ideas. 2. He rejects the postmodern doctrine of political correctness, which is being spread by large sections of the academia, mainstream media and the cultural and political establishment. 3... more »

The only real advice here is to avoid with extreme prejudice. That is probably best. . *20 Diversion Tactics Highly Manipulative Narcissists... more »
