Project Kuiper: Amazon Launches First Internet Satellites
October 7th, 2023Via: PC World:
Amazon’s prototypes for Project Kuiper successfully lifted off into space on Friday, setting the stage for the first space-based tests of the satellite internet service.
The two prototype satellites, KuiperSat-1 and KuiperSat-2, rode onboard an Atlas V rocket from Amazon’s partner, United Launch Alliance.
…
Once the tests are completed, the company plans on deorbiting both prototype satellites for disposal, allowing them to burn up in Earth’s atmosphere. In the coming months, Amazon then plans on launching finalized Project Kuiper satellites into the planet’s orbit with the goal of establishing a space-based internet system spanning over 3,200 satellites.

Putin On Prigozhin Death: Wagner Leaders Got Drunk, High, & Played With Grenades Aboard Plane

Via: ZeroHedge:
President Vladimir Putin just floated the most interesting – and let’s say, colorful – theory to date on why Yevgeny Prigozhin’s plane went down outside Moscow on August 23. While much of Western reporting and even Russian media itself have described the Wagner chief’s death as due to either an anti-air missile or a planted bomb being detonated, Putin told an annual meeting of the Valdai Club in Sochi on Thursday that Prigozhin and his men likely got drunk or possibly high, and were playing with grenades.
Biden The Border Wall Builder

In a stunning reversal of everything that was said over the last 7 years by the left, and just months after the Biden administration was caught selling portions of Trump’s border wall on a government surplus website, DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas is citing an “acute and immediate need” to waive dozens of federal laws in order to build a border wall in south Texas as the illegal immigration crisis grows utterly out of control.

New Zealand: Important Medical Staff Were Granted Covid Vaccine Exemptions
October 4th, 2023I’ve been running Cryptogon for over two decades and this is up there with the worst frauds I’ve ever encountered.
Via: Hatchard Report:
The criteria for granting exemptions apparently entailed an assessment concerning how vital staff were to the working of the health service. In other words, senior figures and those holding key surgical positions could actually insist they remain unvaccinated and continue to be allowed to work. Whilst unvaccinated nurses for example could not gain exemptions and lost their positions.
If senior staff who wished to remain unvaccinated had spoken out publicly, the issue of Covid vaccine safety might have been given a public airing. Instead the Ministry of Health and the government kept a lid on all and any discussion. It did so through liaison with mainstream and social media outlets to censor content and through tight control of staff.

New Panasonic EV Battery Plant In Kansas To Be Powered By Coal
October 3rd, 2023Via: ZeroHedge:
Panasonic’s new battery plant in Kansas will require an amount of energy equivalent to that used by a small city, forcing a nearby utility to halt the shutdown of a coal-fired power plant. This has sparked criticism that electric vehicle production and electric vehicles aren’t ‘ESG-friendly.’
According to The Kansas City Star, citing documents filed by power company Evergy with the Kansas Corporation Commission, Panasonic’s 4-million-square-foot plant in Johnson County will double the utility’s load and require two new substations and upgrades to 31 miles of transmission lines.
Documents show Evergy will have to keep a Lawrence coal-fired power plant online until 2028 to meet the new load at the EV battery plant that will be ramped up as production begins at the end of 2025/early 2026. The utility plans to transition from coal to natural gas by the decade’s end.
“Beyond the sheer magnitude of load and load factor, Panasonic’s construction schedule, and, in turn, its energy needs, are being planned on a very aggressive schedule. With energy needs starting to ramp in 2024 and full load requirements by 2026, there is urgency to procure capacity and energy to fulfill the expected energy usage schedule,” said Kayla Messamore, Evergy’s vice president of strategy and planning.
Currently, no other power generation source in the area can supply enough on-demand power to the Panasonic battery plant.
