Not Quite Link Salad
Three random thoughts, linked only by being in one mind (mine):
1) Here's an interesting article on the history of US space suits.
2) The story of Robert Smalls, a Civil War slave who stole a Confederate ship and later became the first black captain of a vessel in the service of the United States.
3) You may have heard from certain (usually right-wing) sources that Europe is in danger of becoming "Eurabia" - a majority Muslim region. Well, not so fast, partner. Europe is currently only 4% Muslim, and that demographic isn't growing significantly faster than any other group.
