During assembly at Grumman in Long Island, NY the Apollo LMs would be mounted on a rotating cleaning "tumbler" to spin them so any loose debris would come free and fall out. This video is from film footage taken at the Bethpage facility in May 1969 (playing 4x speed.)

We're warming up this week, but an even BIGGER cold front looks likely late this weekend and early next week. First 30s of the season could creep into North Central Florida by NEXT Tuesday morning.

Nice to see upper level westerlies over Florida signaling the end of our hurricane season for all intents and purposes. With the polar jet making more and more southward progress, the continuation of occasional cold fronts and cool/dry downs will continue until further notice.

@SciGuySpace Simply scaling up Starlink V3 satellites, which have high speed laser links would work. SpaceX will be doing this.

I'm going to say what everyone is thinking. Unemployment stats are fake. Job boards are flooded with ghost roles. Companies are offshoring, automating, title-laundering the collapse. This is not a typical 'cycle'. Watch what they do. Not what they say.
