Royal scandal is the theme at the moment. Members of the royal family have been accused of being racist. Meghan Markle the Dutches of Sussex has suffered depression from all the media abuse and stress received. I can't help but think it has nothing to do with the Queen, she comes across as a selfless and kind public servant and head of State. Many people like myself see her as a kind of 3rd grandmother. The debate has spilled out into other media. Piers Morgan walked out of his Job as the Good morning Britain Presenter over the issue. The show received many complaints about his point of view.
The favourite newspaper for me is NASA.gov and BBC news app. They don't rely on the dark side of human nature to sell anything. All their funding is from the public sector. I was reading through the NASA web site on my phone last night, there are many missions that are still ongoing that I had forgotten about like the Hubble space telescope and Juno Jupiter orbiter. I was reading about the Perseverance Mars rover, they have driven it 6 meters to test the drive system and have unstowed the robotic arm. Apparently they have also taken over 7,000 pictures with the most powerful cameras to ever operate on Mars. The blog also states that the Rover has a ground penetrating radar system to look below the surface for things of interest. It will be interesting to see what they discover. I wonder what has happened to the drone probe called ingenuity? The page doesn't say it has flown, I'm not even sure it has detached from the Rover yet. I guess these things take time.
