That's not really relevant. Fine particulate emissions from coal power plants, which are already mostly gone in the US but are still used around the world, don't travel a really long distance.

That's just used for curries

F35 is guaranteed to be better than a "6th generation" Chinese plane and they can be upgraded anyway. And it's actually very successful now with a very cheap per plane cost.

It's more about sensors and communication, there's no reason you can't have f35 use drones and stuff. But the better plane will see and target the enemy first. And it can operate without GPS. In other words it's better to have 3000 f35s flying missions plus a bunch of drones. Being able to deliver a lot of firepower first is a huge deal.

This is just fake propaganda.

A big oven doesn't work with just a timer, because even if it turns off it will continue cooking. A small convection toaster oven or instapot can turn off and the heat evaporates quickly, so you can just leave it and it won't burn.

The second point diminishes that. Because the dirt is all the same there is no specific reason to covet one pile of dirt over another. It's more like mining seawater for gold.

It's partially because of the previous term, it's not the same as a random person about to be president for the first time.

That's not how proof works.

All the rules have been exposed as toothless and being reliant on acting earnestly in good faith. It really doesn't work in a partisan environment and it wasn't built for a two party system.

Sarah Jane was good. But it was intentional as a childrens show and had a great lead.

The current plan is that anyone can go there and they can use whatever they mine but they won't have permanent ownership of a territory. This will be fine in the short term when it's just one or two small research bases.

But your second point doesn't really apply. They will just be mining for water and oxygen and carbon and steel. It will be used for self sustaining the base. The moon didn't have an ocean so there aren't concentrated veins of ore. Everything is pretty evenly mixed so it isn't very good for mining rare metals.
