Coradino Mineo su Rai Tre: "Io sono a favore dell'Occidente ma contro l'Occidente Giudaico-Cristiano". L'Occidente è Giudaico-Cristiano, basato sulla storia e sulla filosofia greco-romana. Altrimenti non è Occidente, è un'altra cosa....

We join Star Trek fans in mourning the loss of actor Walter Koenig. He joined the cast of the original Star Trek television series in its second season as Russian navigator Pavel Chekov, a key member of the Enterprise crew. Koenig portrayed Chekov in two seasons of the original series and all six of the original series major motion pictures.

On 26 October 1968 happened the first successful flight of a Soyuz spacecraft (7K-OC active) with Georgij Beregovoj onboard. It was the rehersal of the ill-fated flight of Soyuz 1 (Komarov's death). The Soyuz 3 failed to dock with the unmanned Soyuz 2 and landed 3 days after.

On 26 October 1940 the very first prototype of the future P-51 made its first flight. Born as private venture (after British input) it flew as NA-73X (NX19998), it was developed as A-36 Apache (Allison engine) and after into the P-51 Mustang (Packard Merlin engine).

The most important thing today is that Starlink and Starshield operations have been restored to the speeds we had before the restrictions. The speeds are now where they need to be. The restoration began overnight, and by this morning, speeds were already sufficient. This matters: for our frontline logistics, for defending Ukraine against jet-powered “shaheds.” I thank all Americans and all our partners who took this seriously and truly helped – members of Congress, senators, all the media, the State Department, and the President. Protecting lives matters.
