Which number does Mr. Astley correspond to?

Looks fun; subscribed!

I think it's fine here. If something like !asksociology@mander.xyz existed, that would be more appropriate, but I think askscience is fine, given the relatively small size of Lemmy.

The bill makes clear that it wants NASA to handle that transition without any gap in the agency’s crewed presence in low Earth orbit.

“The Administrator may not de-orbit the International Space Station until the date on which a commercial low-Earth orbit destination space station has reached initial operational capability in low-Earth orbit,” the bill states. It does grant an exception if the agency concludes that “technical issues” prevent continued safe operations of the ISS.

Let's hope Vast and Axiom can deliver in a timely manner, then.

It also endorsed continuation of NASA’s ongoing exploration programs, including the Space Launch System rocket and Orion spacecraft. One section, for example, is titled “Reaffirmation of the Space Launch System.”

So Congress still wants SLS. No surprises there :)

If theys new ones have better reasoning skills, they will be more useful. So far, I've only found the current ones useful for writing short snippets of code, summarizing text, and talking my ear off.

Is there any specific link to beer, or is that just an example of a common treat that many people like to have a little extra money to spend on?
