☆ An Astronaut With ‘Bad Eyesight and a Fear of Heights’
  + stars: | 2023-11-24 | by ( Emily Bobrow | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: +1 min
As a NASA astronaut, Mike Massimino spacewalked four times to repair the Hubble Space Telescope. When he retired in 2014 and began giving talks about his experiences, he assumed audiences would want to hear about the thrills of those exploits. Instead, he found himself fielding questions that were broader and deeper: How did he weather disappointments? Why didn’t he give up when NASA rejected him three times before accepting him? “The space stories just help them remember the takeaways, the lessons I learned from making mistakes.”

☆ In Israel-Gaza War, Recycled Images From Past Conflicts Can Undercut True Toll

In a video circulating online meant to convey the horrors of the war between Israel and Hamas, a small boy wails, his face caked in dust. Yet the boy’s cries actually rang out hundreds of miles away, in Syria, nearly a decade before Israel’s bombing campaign in Gaza over the past three weeks. “It’s horrifying.”Among the popular images and videos supposedly illustrating the human toll of the war: A heap of dead children swaddled in white, described as Palestinians killed by Israeli forces. A teenage girl being beaten by a mob and fatally lit on fire, promoted as proof of the ruthlessness of Hamas. Mr. Katan worked for the Aleppo Media Center, a group of antigovernment activists and citizen journalists, and is now based in Germany.

Retired astronaut Leland Melvin says a lot of astronaut food is actually pretty tasty. During his two trips to the International Space Station with NASA, he managed to eat pretty well. Astronaut food has come a long way since the early days of dehydrated eggs and Tang.
