Daughter of Astronaut Edgar Mitchell remembers father's historic moonwalk
PALM BEACH COUNTY, Fla. -- As the nation counts down to the launch of a new era in spaceflight, a Palm Beach County woman is remembering the strides her father made nearly fifty years ago.
Kimberly Mitchell is the daughter of Apollo 14 Astronaut Edgar Mitchell, one of only 12 men who walked on the moon.
Touching down 238,000 miles from home, Edgar Mitchell landed a lunar module on the moon on February 5, 1971.
As Apollo 14's lunar module pilot, Mitchell helped collect nearly 100 pounds of lunar rock and soil samples that were distributed across the United States and more than a dozen other countries for analysis.
NASA: We're going back to the moon, and beyond
Our nation is on the verge of launching NASA astronauts to the International Space Station on a commercial American rocket and spacecraft — a historic mission. NASA is in this position today because of our early investments in an emerging space economy in low-Earth orbit, which started with innovative public/private partnerships for cargo resupply services and has grown to include commercial crew.
Simultaneously, NASA has a bold plan to quickly and sustainably explore more of the moon than ever before under the Artemis program. Even as we shift focus to the moon, NASA remains committed to supporting a space economy in low-Earth orbit for research, crew training and more. As a government agency, NASA must lead in exploration for scientific discovery and go where there is not yet a commercial market. With the right architecture, we will foster a new lunar economy, too.

Space Force review: Netflix comedy lands on the snark side of the moon - CNET
The general may not know his astronaut from his elbow, but he's assisted by the technological genius of John Malkovich as a sinuous civilian adviser. Rolling his eyes so hard they practically have an orbit of their own, he's deeply cynical about the military program as he wrangles both the rigors of science and the chain of command. Immaculately turned out in precise suit and tie at all times, Malkovich brings a gravity to proceedings that adds a sheen of class even when the comedy gets silly.
A 'Memorial Day' Moon, A Spaceship And 'Manhattanhenge': What You Can See In The Night Sky This

This week it's all about a crescent Moon on display with Mercury and a fast-sinking Venus—all visible together on Memorial Day in the US—as well as a rather special spaceship, and a quirk of urban design. As the Moon waxes this week it will also pass some notable bright stars, which is a great chance to learn a few constellations.
Holli Diel: An open letter to Sheriff Moon | TheUnion.com
Are you a "constitutional sheriff?" I ask because we need our sheriffs more now than ever. Will you take a stand in agreement with Sheriff William Honsal?, "As sheriff," he said, "I am the protector of constitutional rights in Humboldt County, and if an order is issued that I believe violates our constitutional rights, I will not enforce it."
This sheriff is one of several incredible "Constitutional Sheriffs" taking a stand for freedom. What future will you leave for your children, a free society, or a society led by tyrants?
