⁣If we are going to send humans to the moon and Mars, then we need to look into how we could revive dying satellites. We already know that it is very difficult to put a satellite into a low Earth orbit or a geostationary orbit (where the satellites are above the equator and the earth's rotation axis is moving parallel to the orbit plane). Sending someone from NASA or other space agency to rescue a dying satellite is not as easy as putting a human being on the moon or Mars. We might be able to use technology to "repair" dead satellites by re-inserting a solar power collector into its dish and using battery power to power the repair system - but that might still not be safe, and it might take a year or more to get the satellite up and operational again which means we're still on the moon, which are somewhat ridiculous, and that's not what I want.

⁣Rising oil prices are propping the spending power of consumers, especially when it comes to buying necessities. And while it may seem that every consumer is hurting due to the current state of the economy, there is actually a lot of optimism surrounding the situation. People are realizing that they can get back to work and spend less on things that they enjoy instead of stressing about how they're going to make it through the next few months. Jet charter companies are also starting to benefit from this newfound sense of freedom.

⁣The Fed just lifted the rate it's historic base rate by a vote of nine to one. The Fed will raise short-term interest rates and lower long term rates in order to cool the economy down, but this time it is taking the inflation problem into consideration. And believe me when I tell you this; the "Zionism" crowd better watch out because this time they have a friend in high power who has a lot of clout in Washington. If the Fed starts raising rates too much without considering the inflationary impact, we are headed for a very tough market with real estate bubbles across the country, and the dollar losing value versus many other currencies.

⁣It seems that all the major airlines in the world have been put under cyber attack recently, and this has put a lot of doubts in the minds of the public as to whether or not they should still be using these services. As one might expect, this has led many innocent travelers to ask "Are there any ways to avoid these kinds of attacks?”
