Deep space is a “serial killer” Deep space will be invariably deadly, reveal scientific studies of subjects from cells to humans. Astronauts cannot survive the intense radiation, weightlessness, toxic chemicals, disease, and other hazards beyond Earth orbit. Like old-time serial-circuit Christmas lights, in which losing one bulb extinguished all, a single medical catastrophe will end in astronauts’ death or disability. Any organ—heart, lungs, immune system, brain, or eyes—could fail. And the loss of one spacecraft system—oxygen, temperature, food, water, or radiation protection...

For all the softness verse instills, there’s an uncontained fire beneath, which burns until the skin wears thin and the flames burst forth. There’s a time for nuance and a time for hammering, not to put a too-fine ecclesiastical point on it — and this is the time to assure the word becomes the sword — the word provokes reaction. A mighty battle is being fought by the cultural warriors in the land — a war to be recognized as equal and unique. Normal is an ubiquitous label not fit for the American collective conscious. It runs counter to the soul of the nation. So, sometimes soft ...
