PROPULSION
NO ONE who thinks service personnel are required to follow illegal orders is qualified to hold public office. Read the Uniform Code of Military Justice--and the Constitution--and resign.
"The Cold Embrace" is my last story written for the Jim Baen award & sold to Analog. I wrote 10 for the contest & all sold to pro markets, one to Galaxy's Edge, the rest to @Analog_SF , though one missed the contest due to schedule conflicts.
ALT A U.S. Apollo astronaut helps a fallen cosmonaut.
When a story sells, I always reread for errors to flag in the galleys—my little ritual of disbelief. This time it’s "The Cold Embrace", coming soon in @Analog_SF! Cold War secrets, cosmic isolation, and the human heart beneath the machinery.
The stars care not for our fumbles.
They’re waiting all the same,
step by step,
story by story,
learning along the way.
We are the universe, coming to know itself.

Sorry if the truth hurts, @SenJoniErnst, but your position is wrong, stupid, economically foolish, and unethical. The inevitability of death doesn't mean toss the elderly in a bonfire while hording the wealth of a nation. Also, fuck you.
