  3. Russia-Ukraine war live:

    #Leonid #Volkov told Reuters
    💥hours before an assailant attacked him with a hammer and tear gas 💥outside his home in Lithuania that he and other exiles feared for their lives.

    Volkov, the top aide to #Alexei #Navalny, said leaders of the late Russian opposition leader’s organisation knew they were facing “high individual risks” in an interview filmed on Tuesday hours before an unidentified attacker assaulted him outside his home.

    “They know that #Putin not only kills people inside Russia, he also kills people outside of Russia”, he said. “We live in very dark times”.

    Lithuania has accused Moscow of being behind the attack. Volkov blamed Russian president Vladimir Putin. There was no immediate comment from Moscow on the incident.
    In his interview with Reuters hours before the attack, Volkov said the death of Navalny last month in an arctic prison had 🔸inspired Navalny’s supporters to ensure that his sacrifice was not in vain.🔸
    “Alexei’s death was a devastating loss, and it’s a bleeding wound (in) our hearts, but also of course it produced a lot of energy, a lot of political momentum,” he said. “It’s our task and responsibility to convert this energy into meaningful political action that would make Putin weaker.”

  6. #Threethings for Fri 18 Nov. 1. #JWST results on distant #galaxies: lots, enough to trouble our theories (maybe), spectra needed. Stephen Wilkins was hinting in Oxford some may be confounding nearer systems. mastodon.social/@Chrislintott/ 2. If you were clouded out for the #leonid #meteor peak last night, try livemeteors.com (HT @w8emv) 3. Both Starry Night #beer from Jolly Sailor & the Polka Hop in #wakefield are hereby recommended #astrodon

  7. Since there is a lot of misinformation about the #Leonid #meteors around ... read pages 17-18 of imo.net/files/meteor-shower/ca - *the* source about meteor showers in 2022 - as well as the article imo.net/viewing-the-leonid-met and learn that the only *possible* interval of some interest for non-specialists is between 6:00 and 6:30 UTC on *Saturday* when briefly rates *could* get nice which are pretty low at all other times. Including the coming night with the regular (always low) maximum at ~23:00 UTC.
