Has anyone heard about the latest glitches aboard the International Space Station? It appears India just intercepted a low orbit satellite with a missile, but the debris now threatens the ISS. Meanwhile, NASA is preoccupied trying to quell the bad optics they endured from not having enough properly sized spacesuits for an all-female space walk. This has caused much flailing and gnashing of teeth within the SJW/NOW gulag. Once again we find NASA well behind the power curve with its focus on male and female identities in this new virtual identity world. How 20th century of them.

I’m not certain that the Indian test debris directly and imminently threatens the station, but as it spreads around over time it will certain increase collision risk. As far as the spacesuit thing, that’s just NASA trying to be politically correct and failing spectacularly as usual. They never did have any media sense.
I’m glad NASA helped get the ball rolling, but its time for them to pass the reins to commercial space — where the real money is.
They could have done the EVA. It just that one of them did not want to be on record wearing a large.
