Is Deep State planning on knocking America out of the space race before President Trump takes office, leaving U.S. vulnerable to attacks? 😖😖😖

ISS astronauts brace for evacuation as NASA finds concerning leaks
https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/technology/iss-astronauts-brace-for-evacuation-as-nasa-finds-concerning-leaks/ar-AA1t3Yv4?ocid=msedgdhp&pc=U531&cvid=70488ce600e64174b705d5608e60d3f3&ei=13

EXCERPT:
NASA’s astronauts aboard the International Space Station have been told to prepare for an urgent evacuation amid growing safety concerns.
The US space agency and its Russian counterpart, Roscomos, are tracking 50 ‘areas of concern’ related to a growing leak aboard the station.
NASA’s astronauts aboard the International Space Station have been told to prepare for an urgent evacuation amid growing safety concerns.

The US space agency and its Russian counterpart, Roscomos, are tracking 50 ‘areas of concern’ related to a growing leak aboard the station. NASA is now calling the cracks in a Russian service module a ‘top safety risk’ - escalating the threat rating to five out of five.

Astronauts have been warned to stay in the American section when the module is open so they can be close to their spacecraft in case of an emergency evacuation.

Although officials have been aware of the issue since 2019, the exact source of the leak is still unknown.

All potential cracks have been covered with ‘a combination of sealant and patches’ but NASA warned that the leak reached its fastest rate yet in April this year.

Concerns over the station’s safety are now so high that NASA has negotiated with Roscomos to only open the hatch when absolutely necessary and to keep it sealed in the evenings.

And that’s not the only cause for concern, as the space agency has warned that the ISS is at risk of being pelted with micro-meteors and space debris.

RED FLAGS AT END: 🚩🚩🚩👎👎👎

NASA has planned to use the station up until 2030, at which time it will be burned up in a controlled de-orbit.

SpaceX has been contracted to build a vehicle which can safely push the ISS back down to Earth for a cost of up to $843 million (£650 million).

However, as Russia refuses to commit to extending the station’s lifespan until 2030, NASA has admitted that the ability to perform a controlled deorbit is now ‘unclear’

Russia, a major partner in the station, plans to launch its own orbital platform around then, with Axiom Space, a private firm, planning to send its own modules for purely commercial use to the station at the same time.

NASA, ESA, JAXA and the Canadian Space Agency (CSA) are working together to build a space station in orbit around the moon, and Russia and China are working on a similar project, that would also include a base on the surface.

LJ posted (old thread):
I have complete conviction that the Q plan will work.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

That's nice, but Q reminds us of game theory, which is involved when there are conscious, thinking forces opposed--whose actions are not completely predictable.

One of the clearest explanations of game theory is from Mike Tyson:

Q sharply reminds us: "I am not a prophet; you are not a prophet."

Assuming Q is the equivalent of an intel agency of sorts, there is still no certainty of outcomes. A good plan is one that is constantly adaptable to the countermoves of the opposition.

The broad strategic plan of Q an Trump may still be intact since 2017 (and before), but the tactical framework has to be changing on-the-fly.

There is no certainty of success, even now. I think we can all imagine some horrible outcomes as the enemy within becomes more and more desperate.

This is truly an intel war for America, a highly asymmetric war where one side has thrown out all the rules, utilizing biowarfare, lawfare, media capture for propaganda purposes, election tampering and even assassination.

As many speakers alluded to yesterday at MSG, this is no longer a Democrat/Republican contest, but a contest between We The People and the entrenched puppet masters of the deep state.

RFK Jr. made it even more clear defining the "Other" side as certain financial interests manipulating the deep state. These include Big Banks, Wall Street, Big Pharma, Big Tech, Big Food, Big Ag; and, of course, the Defense industry. These internal foes of The People are of course joined by foreign actors including China, Ukraine, Iran etc.

The amazing part is that, God willing, it appears that the momentum has shifted back in favor of The People.

I always have considered this option to be dumb as hell. Given the amount of effort and energy it takes to get stuff up there it would behoove EVERYONE to move masses like this into either a very high orbit, or take up the fuel (or build/generate in-situ) to push it into a Lagrange point scrapyard, or even drag it to the moon. It’s not logical to bring all that refined metal, tubing, wire, etc... back down the gravity well here.

What is 'evening' on an orbiting space station? 🤷
