1…………> Stop Mueller: John Dowd

Enraged by a request by President Trump’s personal attorney John Dowd that the Justice Department should end Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s probe, Hillary’s “altar boy” and presidential hopeful fired an angry tweet at the enemy:

Tim Kaine 

✔@timkaine 

Robert Mueller must be allowed to see this investigation through to its conclusion. Period. Full stop.

We in Congress will not stand idle if he is fired, and threats like this need to stop. 

12:29 PM – Mar 17, 2018

“I pray that Acting Attorney General Rosenstein will … bring an end to the alleged Russia Collusion investigation … based upon a fraudulent and corrupt Dossier,” Dowd said, adding he was speaking on the president’s behalf.

Senator Michael Bennet, a Democrat from Colorado, said “any effort to interfere” with the probe would cause “a constitutional crisis and undermine the rule of law.”

3…………> Pulsar Hunter: China’s FAST

China’s Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical Radio Telescope (FAST), the world’s largest single-dish radio telescope, has discovered 11 new pulsars for a total of 51, a highly magnetized, rotating neutron stars, which emits two beams of electromagnetic radiation. 

According to NAOC scientist Zhang Pei, pulsars with high density and energy are irreplaceable “celestial laboratories” and could be used to replace navigational satellites to locate spacecraft, which can be used to confirm the existence of gravitational radiation and black holes and help solve many other major questions in physics.

4……….> Aussie Subs: Silent, Stealthy & Cramped

The heavily crowded waterways to Australia’s north are clear and present dangers for any submarine or surface ship including the sailors and officers who serve on Australia’s six Collins-class submarines participating in this month’s    “Exercise Ocean Explorer” war games, amid growing concerns over Beijing’s military build-up in the South China Sea, and the potential for crucial trading routes to Australia to be cut off.

“The real, true capability of a submarine is that I don’t have to announce (my) arrival in any place,” says the veteran of the United Kingdom’s nuclear-powered submarines Commander Richard Lindsey, the CO of HMAS Waller, one of the Collins-class fleet.

“For me, it’s just about standard operating: well planned, well supported and making sure that we don’t make mistakes. No personal space, six-hour sleep and months without sunlight,” he added.

5…………> USS Colorado: A New Day

“To the crew of USS Colorado, this is your day. The commissioning crew truly does bring life to the boat. The pride I feel for the crew of this boat knows no bounds,” said Annie Maybus Mabus, daughter of the 75th Secretary of the Navy Ray Mabus and the sponsor of the sub as she was brought it to life at the beginning of her journey. 

Being the most modern and sophisticated attack submarine in the world, the stealthy ship can operate in both littoral and deep ocean environments and presents combatant commanders with a broad and unique range of operational capabilities.

Colorado is a flexible, multi-mission platform designed to carry out the seven core competencies of the submarine force: anti-submarine warfare, anti-surface warfare, delivery of Special Operations Forces (SOF), strike warfare, irregular warfare, intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance and mine warfare.
