Barely a year ago, the moon was “a distraction” to Elon Musk,
the billionaire chief executive of SpaceX then fixated on his ludicrously ambitious project to build a self-sustaining city on Mars within 20 years.
Why bother returning to the orbiting chunk of rock humanity conquered half a century ago, he reasoned,
when the greater prize of the red planet lay tantalizingly in reach for his company’s mighty Starship rockets?
Fast forward to February 2026, and the world’s …

Greenland thoughts from Antarctica..

Understanding Greenland can help us to understand also what is happening here.
