#SpaceNews: Europe’s ExoMars spacecraft begins lowering its orbit

The ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter, a Russian-launched, European-built spacecraft that arrived at Mars in October, is starting to dip into the upper reaches of the red planet’s atmosphere in a year-long “aerobraking” campaign place the observatory in the right position to hunt for methane, an indicator of potential biological activity. The effort to reshape the craft’s course around Mars uses aerodynamic drag from repeated dips into the upper atmosphere to gradually drag down the high point of the probe’s orbit from its current altitude of 20,500 miles (33,000 kilometers) to a planned perch 250 miles (400 kilometers) above the Martian surface.  spaceflightnow.com

#Terrorists: Not all but...

Of course, not all Muslims living in French suburbs are anti-Semitic, violent, racist or homophobic. More importantly, the Mehdi Meklat and Houda Benyamina tweet scandal highlights the responsibility of mainstream media of the Left, who have chosen to turn a blind eye to their "protégés". The French writer Pascal Bruckner, speaking about Mehdi Meklat,  wrote  in  Le Figaro : "For years,  Le Monde, Liberation, Les Inrockuptibles, Télérama  praised the great vitality of this kid from the suburbs, so funny, so smart that he proposed, through the voice of his "double evil" [a pseudonym of Meklat] to kill Jews, to sodomize Mrs. Valls [the prime minister's wife], spit on Charb [murdered in the  Charlie Hebdo  terrorist attack], to break the legs of Finkielkraut [noted philosopher]... The media wanted to deny the violence of kids from the suburbs or try to make it seem the natural expression of an oppressed minority. We forget, by the way, that for a...

#Terrorists: Yacine Chaouat

On February 25, the Paris prosecutor launched an inquiry into Yacine Chaouat, a parliamentary assistant of the Socialist Party senator Roger Madec. Chaouat was suspected of sharing on Facebook some posts expressing "sympathy" for ISIS. "If the facts are true, they are disturbing. We're very clearly about apologizing for terrorism",  said  a source close to the investigation at the weekly  L'Express . In  Le Parisien , Chaouat  replied  he was the victim of a smear campaign. In 2015, Chaouat had to resign from a nomination to be a member of the National Secretary of the Socialist Party: some of his colleagues suggested that Chaouat was justly  condemned , because he had severely beaten his girlfriend.

#Technology: Houda Benyamina and Oulaya Amamra: Facebook posts and tweets.

The French-Moroccan film-maker Houda Benyamina received a standing ovation at Cannes Film Festival and  won the Camera D'Or prize  for her film, "Divines". In February 2017, the very politically correct Académie des Césars (the French equivalent of Hollywood's Oscars) rewarded Houda Benyamina with a César for "Divines" as the Best First Film. The scandal is not that "Divines" might be considered a hate film against France, against public schools, against police, against firemen, against the presentation of migrants and Muslims as eternal victims. The heroes in the movie are all suffering young Muslims, targets of a French racist society; nobody understands the beauty of their souls, etc. The scandal is that Houda Benyamina shared on Facebook a cartoon saying that Israel and the United States are manipulating ISIS. Oulaya Amamra, the young sister of Houda Benyamina, awarded by the Académie des Césars the prize for Best Young Actress in "...

#Religion: Muslim Antisemitism: Hate Speech

Amid these riots, three other "explosions" took place. Mehdi Meklat and Badroudine Said Abdallah affair .  Mehdi Meklat and Badroudine Said Abdallah were until very recently, two cultural heroes. These two young Muslims were the darlings of the left mainstream media. [1] In March 2016, they even  had the honor of an article in T he Washington Post : "At 23, they are already celebrities, France's youngest public intellectuals.... neither sees the point of a university education, and their world begins where Paris ends, which is the point of their entire intellectual project. "Their columns for the Liberation newspaper's Bondy Blog, their documentaries and their 2015 novel all reveal the two friends' overarching intent: showing the world the complicated reality of the Paris suburbs where they were born and raised."   But in mid-February 2017, an unknown woman decided to share on Facebook some of Mehdi Meklat's tweets: "I am goi...

#Technology: After electrocution death, coroner says iPhones should carry warning

Dropping a phone in the bath while it is charging can be as deadly as chucking a plugged-in hairdryer in there, a coroner warned during an inquest into the death of a British man last December. Richard Bull, 32, was apparently using his iPhone in the bath when it slipped into the water and electrocuted him, the  Telegraph  reports. Coroner Sean Cummings said he plans to write to Apple to warn of the danger. "These seem like innocuous devices, but they can be as dangerous as a hairdryer in a bathroom. They should attach warnings," he told the inquest, per the  Guardian . "This was a tragic accident and I have no reason to believe at all that there was anything other than it being completely accidental."  www.12news.com
