February 24, 20233 yr Never heard of this! Am I too sensitive, in thinking this is a bit cruel? We are all connected..... To each other, biologically...... To the Earth, chemically......

February 25, 20233 yr Maybe Ipswich should be considered as one of the UK's up and coming space launch centres?
