China’s “Red Menace” Grows in Space! (24.3.2026)

In September 2022, cosmonauts on the Shenzhou-14 mission became the first Chinese crew to eat vegetables they had grown in orbit. The mission completed full growth cycles for crops, including wheat and dwarf tomatoes. It also achieved the first full life-cycle cultivation of rice in space, from seed to seed.

Subsequent crews have continued to expand the range of crops grown aboard the station, including lettuce varieties and cherry tomatoes. More recently, astronauts have experimented with sweet potatoes, with samples returned to Earth for further study.

Space-based plant cultivation is aimed at supporting long-duration missions by providing food and aiding oxygen and water recycling, while advancing research for deep-space exploration. Microgravity may also alter plant growth cycles, offering insights into plant biology and potential applications on Earth.

UK: Time Might Not Exist – and We’re Starting to Understand Why! (9.12.2025)

The problem with ideation and science is that the concrete nature of the external world is often ignored in the pursuit of pushing the permitted bourgeois envelope ever further toward ethereal theories that are non-threatening to the capitalist status quo – as bourgeois science can never be used to discredit capitalism in anyway. having said that, I think the distances are so vast between solar systems and different parts of the universe-multiverse – that humanity will not be able to traverse these distances in the traditional sense. A single light year still represents the distance light travels in one-year (5.88 trillion miles).

Socialist China Plans New Space Adventure!

China: Plans for Satellite Launch to Search for “New Earth”! (26.11.2025)

The Hongmeng Programme, designed to detect the universe’s “infant cries,” consists of 10 satellites forming a low-frequency radio telescope array. The satellites will travel to the far side of the Moon, a naturally quiet “radio sanctuary” shielded from Earth and solar interference, allowing the system to capture extremely faint signals from deep space. The project aims to shed light on the turbulent epoch hundreds of millions of years after the Big Bang, before the first stars formed.

17th Century Safe - Old Wooden Safe - Built In2o Bedroom Wall!

Market Overton: 17th Century Wooden Safe – Built into Bedroom Wall! (26.10.2025)

Anyway, I digress. This morning, and for the first-time in decades, I heard a local Parish Church ring the church-bells – summoning the faithful to worship on this crisp Sunday-morning! I am literally sat in the epicentre of history! Probably far more so than usual. As you can see above – in the bedroom I am frequenting – there is a wooden safe built into the wall. The wood does not seem that secure to me – and I know I could easily place my fist through the door – it seems that thin (not that I would do such a thing). Years ago (in Hong Kong) when I had to punch objects whilst holding an egg in the palm (which had to remain “unbroken”) – the objects I had to hit were far more “stout” than this structure. I cannot not discern any writing on the casing of the safe – but such a craftsman’s signature might be immediately adjacent to the inner wall structure.

Chinese Science - Space Hospital Could Look Like This!

China: Futuristic Space Hospital Being Designed! (7.8.2025)

The Shenzhen University of Advanced Technology and the Shanghai Engineering Centre for Microsatellites recently signed a cooperation agreement to jointly establish a space hospital in the future. This project aims to enhance astronauts’ health and expand in-orbit medical monitoring and life support capabilities.

The future space hospital will make breakthroughs in fields such as aerospace, medicine and biology, and conduct cutting-edge research in space life and health support. It will also prepare research on non-astronauts space travel, interstellar exploration and other space health support needs, the China Science Daily reported Wednesday.

Trump Like My Dome Musk

DPRK: Trump Threatens World with “Golden Dome”! (28.5.2025)

According to the memorandum, the U.S. plan for the “Golden Dome” missile defense system setting it as a goal to closely defend the Continent of North America from the ballistic missile, cruise missile and supersonic missile attack by its strategic enemy states is a typical product of “America first”, the height of self-righteousness, arrogance, high-handed and arbitrary practice, and is an outer space nuclear war scenario supporting the U.S. strategy for uni-polar domination with the preemptive establishment of the outer space-based military substructure, not a “defensive measure” to cope with the “threat” from someone.
