America Can Help Poland Secure NATO’s Eastern Flank
*Dan Goure* *M1 Abrams, Europe* The Biden administration should encourage and support a Polish effort to acquire the M1 Abrams tank. *Here's What You Need to Know*: Helping frontline nations such as Poland acquire the means to operate as a stand-in force is of vital importance to the Alliance’s deterrence mission. NATO’s 2021 summit in Brussels came and went without much fanfare, largely overshadowed by the Biden-Putin meeting that immediately followed. Yet significant steps were taken with respect to enhancing the Alliance’s security. Chief among these was a clear statement by ... read more
Border Security: The Biden Administration Should Provide States With Surveillance Technology
*Dan Goure* *Border Control, Americas* The excess surveillance systems were purchased as part of the Trump wall program *Here's What You Need to Know*: Putting existing equipment to good use makes eminent sense. The situation on the southwest border is serious, some say critical. States and localities are responding to border crossings by implementing local surveillance and security measures. Regardless of how the White House chooses to deal with border security, it can support the sovereign decisions of the states. When the Biden Administration took office and canceled the Tr... read more
Here is Russia's Most Destructive Non-Nuclear Weapon
*Sebastien Roblin* *Russia, Eurasia* An incredibly destructive and battle-tested weapon. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *However, it was in 1999, the same year that the TOS-1 was first revealed to the public, that the TOS-1 first made a name for itself in the siege of the Chechen capital of Grozny. The TOS-1 *Buratino *is a unique Russian self-propelled multiple rocket launcher system (MRLS) that has seen action in global hotspots like Afghanistan, Chechnya, Iraq and Syria. Like the enormous 240-millimeter 2S4 self-propelled mortar, the TOS-1’s specialty is obliterating heav... read more
Is the M1 Abrams Still the World's Most Elite Tank?
*Sebastien Roblin* *Tanks, * It may no longer be the top dog. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *While it’s still debatable which is the superior tank—they clearly both are capable of destroying one other—the point is that the Abrams can no longer assume the inferiority of opposing tanks. Back in the 1990s I recall reading Tom Clancy’s loving paean to the M1 Abrams, *Armored Cav*, in which he related that the unkillable tank had never been knocked out by hostile fire. The Abrams’ 120mm cannon effortlessly peeled the turrets off of T-72 tanks in the Gulf War, while Russian anti... read more

Checking In With The "Smart" People At Harvard
* Are the “smart” people really very smart? That is, do the people who score at the top on standardized tests and then turn up at the fancy universities actually have a superior level of reasoning and rationality that they can apply to solving the problems of the world? Or are they instead just trapped in the same sorts of groupthink and mass irrationality as everyone else? * Well, let’s consider the latest information coming out of Harvard University. * Harvard — you can’t get any “smarter” than that.

Russia's Super 'Gun' Has Brought Destruction from Afghanistan to Ukraine
*Sebastien Roblin* *Russia, Eurasia* It fields gigantic 240-millimeter mortars. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *The M240 mortar can fire a variety of special-purpose rounds for these purposes. Self-propelled heavy mortar carriers are ubiquitous in modern mechanized armies. Mounted on light armored carriers and placed at the disposal of battalion commanders, such vehicles can deliver heavy and fast-responding indirect bombardments with 120-millimeter shells. When compared to self-propelled howitzers of similar caliber, mortars are lighter and require a smaller logistical trai... read more
How Russia's Military Continues to Prepare for a WMD Attack
*Charlie Gao* *Chemical Weapons, * Russia prepares for the possibility of a WMD attack in ways NATO does not. *Here's What You Need to Remember:* While Russia has upgraded its CBRN reconnaissance vehicles twice since the 2000s, the United States last procured an upgrade for its German M93 Fox CBRN reconnaissance vehicles in 2007. The threat of chemical and nuclear warfare loomed large over most militaries during the Cold War. The development of new nerve agents during the 1940s, as well as advanced delivery systems later on meant that chemical weapons could be delivered with pr... read more

Fukushima spent fuel rods
11-7-2013 Christina Consolo, the founder and host of Nuked Radio, who has studied the Fukushima disaster in depth, told *RT *that she was not optimistic that the operation would be successful. *“The worst-case scenario is that there’s a nuclear chain reaction, a criticality in the pool during this procedure and it can’t be stopped,”* she said. Still, Consolo said Japan has no option but to proceed with the operation, as they can’t leave the fuel rods where they are, (1500 rods stored in a water pool atop reactor @#4 at Fukushima) as *“even a mild earthquake could cause the build... read more

"A Look to the Heavens"
"A gorgeous spiral galaxy some 100 million light-years distant, NGC 1309 lies on the banks of the constellation of the River (Eridanus).

Bluish clusters of young stars and dust lanes are seen to trace out NGC 1309's spiral arms as they wind around an older yellowish star population at its core. Not just another pretty face-on spiral galaxy, observations of NGC 1309's recent supernova and Cepheid variable stars contribute to the calibration of the expansion of the Universe. Stil... read more
