The situation in Cuba is devolving as the island’s corrupt, brutal and anti-American Communist regime continues to prioritize its own total control over the freedom, opportunity and basic wellbeing of the Cuban people.

The Cuban military-controlled conglomerate GAESA has persistently served as the main vector for regime elites to steal the island’s few resources, diverting them for repression, anti-American subversion and spying instead of schools, power plants, and basic necessities for the Cuban people. Today, I designated additional GAESA network entities associated with moving both its money and its physical assets, as well as entities responsible for exploiting Cuba’s mineral and metal reserves for ill-gotten profit.

Anyone providing services to these sanctioned actors is at risk of being sanctioned themselves. Foreign banks and other companies that provide services to these entities should freeze those activities immediately.

NASA’s Webb Finds Clues to Ancient, Distant Origin of Comet 3I/ATLAS

Jun 22, 2026

As interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS began moving away from the Sun in December 2025, astronomers took the opportunity to turn NASA’s powerful James Webb Space Telescope in its direction and capture detailed measurements of its chemical components.

The comet was freshly warmed from its closest pass by the Sun, and its ancient ice had been converted to a bright coma of gas ideal for observation.

Webb captured detailed data, including chemical ratios of carbon and deuterium, also known as heavy hydrogen, that are not found in solar system comets.

The results surprised researchers. Working backward, astronomers used the components that make up comet 3I/ATLAS to understand the environment in which it formed.

A paper detailing the findings published June 22 in the journal Nature.

The comet’s name comes from its status as the third confirmed interstellar comet, meaning it originated outside the solar system, and the telescope that first spotted it, the NASA-funded ATLAS (Asteroid Terrestrial-impact Last Alert System).

“This was a unique opportunity to study an ancient object from the distant galaxy, probably pre-dating our Sun and solar system,” said astro-chemist Martin Cordiner of NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland, and lead author of the study.

“On the one hand, we get direct insight into that distant time and place, and on the other, we learn something about how unusual our own solar system may be.”

Cordiner and the research team joined astronomers from many sub-disciplines in taking the opportunity to get a look at 3I/ATLAS on its journey through the solar system.

They received approval to interrupt Webb’s planned schedule of observations to make use of its NIRSpec (Near-Infrared Spectrograph) instrument to study the comet.

NIRSpec revealed exceptionally high levels of deuterium, about 30 times more than seen in solar system comets. This implies that 3I/ATLAS may have originated in a very cold system much earlier in the history of our galaxy.

During its formation, the material that became incorporated into 3I/ATLAS was likely exposed to plenty of radiation, but not any long-term warmth that would have reprocessed its “heavy water” ice, with deuterium, into the type of H2O ice we are familiar with on Earth.

Additionally, NIRSpec showed only traces of carbon-13 compared to lighter-weight carbon-12.

This also points to a very old origin for 3I/ATLAS, as stellar systems become enriched with carbon-13 over time as generations of stars are born and die in the galaxy.

That is why there are higher levels of carbon-13 in our system, around our Sun, which formed relatively recently, 4.5 billion years ago.

The research team estimates that 3I/ATLAS could have formed as long as 10 to 12 billion years ago, during the universe’s “cosmic noon,” when star formation was at its height.

Its young origin system was likely ensconced in a relatively cold, dense cloud. The abundance of heavy water shows that 3I/ATLAS spent its formative years in a deeply frozen state.

A separate study using the European Southern Observatory's Very Large Telescope, led by astronomer Cyrielle Opitom of the University of Edinburgh, complements Webb’s findings with an analysis of 3I/ATLAS’s carbon and nitrogen varieties in the form of the chemical cyanide.

“For us as scientists, finding these rare isotopes is fascinating, but the bigger picture here is looking at the possibilities of prebiotic chemistry elsewhere in the galaxy,” said Stefanie Milam of NASA Goddard and co-author of the study with Cordiner.

“So far, we know of only one place in the vast cosmos where chemical ingredients led to life – our solar system, our Earth.

Analysis of these interstellar objects is a major step towards learning how common, or uncommon, the conditions for the evolution of life are in the universe.”

The James Webb Space Telescope is the world’s premier space science observatory.

Webb is solving mysteries in our solar system, looking beyond to distant worlds around other stars, and probing the mysterious structures and origins of our universe and our place in it.

Webb is an international program led by NASA with its partners, ESA (European Space Agency) and CSA (Canadian Space Agency).

The Next Outpost: NASA’s Plans for Replacing the Aging International Space Station

June 23, 2026

When your car gets old, you may face the decision of whether to spend money repairing it or replacing it. NASA is facing a similar dilemma with the aging International Space Station.

Within the next year, NASA must choose whether to make repairs and updates that would extend the life of the Space Station or to replace it with a commercial outpost.

Today’s WatchBlog post looks at our new report on the status of the International Space Station and the impending choice NASA must make.

About the Space Station and its role in maintaining human presence above Earth

The International Space Station orbits Earth from nearly 250 miles above. It circles our planet every 90 minutes at a speed of 17,500 mph.

For more than 25 years, the Space Station has allowed humans to live off planet. About the size of a football field, it has living quarters to house an international crew of up to 7 astronauts or cosmonauts at a time.

Over its lifetime, the Space Station has hosted nearly 300 astronauts from 26 different countries across the globe.

The outpost is also outfitted with several labs to allow for scientific experiments in space. Astronauts research everything from advanced medicine and physics to what happens to the human body in space. 

The Space Station was funded and built through a collaboration of five participating space agencies from 15 different countries. However, the U.S. bears the majority of the costs to run it. NASA spends nearly $3 billion a year to operate and maintain the aging government-owned space station.

The original plan was for the Space Station to be used about 15 years. But now, more than a decade beyond that, the outpost is facing some structural issues that risk its mission and could result in higher costs for maintaining it.

Because of this, NASA plans to retire and deorbit the current station by 2030, and the space agency has begun exploring replacement options.

NASA Astronaut Heading to Space Station Plans to Run a Real Test for Alien Life and Will Tell Us Everything

June 23, 2026

For decades, the question of whether life exists beyond Earth has been the domain of science fiction writers and late-night conspiracy forums.

But one NASA astronaut about to spend eight months orbiting our planet says he is going to run an actual, controlled scientific experiment to find out and he has promised to share every result publicly.

Dr. Anil Menon, an emergency medicine physician, U.S. Space Force colonel, and newly minted NASA astronaut, is preparing for the most ambitious chapter of his already extraordinary career.

Scheduled to launch aboard the Soyuz MS-29 mission on July 14 from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan, Menon will join Russian cosmonauts Pyotr Dubrov and Anna Kikina as a flight engineer on Expedition 75 aboard the International Space Station.

The mission is expected to last approximately eight months. And during that time, Menon has confirmed he will conduct a search for microbial extraterrestrial life during a series of spacewalks.

What Exactly Is the Experiment?

The idea sounds almost too simple: check the outside of the space station for bacteria. But the science behind it is anything but simple, and the implications could be world-changing.

"What we're looking to see is if there is any bacteria that can survive on the external side of the space station," Menon told Newsweek.

The external surface of the ISS is one of the most hostile environments imaginable.

Objects on the outside of the station are exposed to unfiltered cosmic radiation, extreme ultraviolet light from the sun, and temperature swings that can range from roughly 250 degrees Fahrenheit in direct sunlight to negative 250 degrees in shadow.

For any biological organism to survive out there would be extraordinary.

But previous reports have suggested it might not be impossible. The problem, Menon explained, is that earlier experiments lacked rigorous scientific controls, raising the possibility that the station itself could have contaminated the samples.

"Past reports made us think perhaps it's possible, but it wasn't clear if we had a really good control, like we might have potentially contaminated it," Menon said.

"So I think we're going back. We're going to do a good job of having a very controlled experiment and that'll be some more exciting science to follow in terms of just other things living in space."

In other words, this time they are doing it right. A controlled experiment means cleaner data, more trustworthy results, and potentially a much clearer answer to one of humanity's oldest questions: are we alone?

An Astronaut Who Has Promised to Tell You the Truth

What makes Menon's mission especially compelling in 2026 is the broader political and cultural context surrounding extraterrestrial life.

The U.S. government has been releasing batches of previously classified Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena records, a category that includes what were historically called UFO sightings.

Crew Starts Week with Bioengineering, Space Manufacturing, and Spacewalk Preps

June 22, 2026 12:57PM

Bioengineering cartilage tissues and manufacturing advanced materials kicked off the week aboard the International Space Station.

The Expedition 74 crew members also ramped up preparations for a spacewalk and conducted vision tests on Monday.

NASA flight engineer Jessica Meir split her day working on a pair of investigations — one focused on biotechnology and the other on space‑based manufacturing.

She began her shift inside the Kibo laboratory module’s Life Science Glovebox, nourishing living cartilage cells. Scientists are studying how these cells grow larger in weightlessness, research that could guide new treatments for arthritis or sports injuries.

Later, in the Harmony module, she photographed colloidal crystals — microscopic particles floating in liquid — to capture how they naturally arrange themselves into orderly 3D structures in microgravity.

The results could help the design and development of next‑generation materials and technologies for both Earth and space industries.

In between the space science work, Meir joined NASA flight engineer Chris Williams and reviewed plans for a spacewalk to repair a wrist joint on the Canadarm2 robotic arm scheduled for June 30.

The duo examined spacewalking tools and spacesuits, studied emergency procedures, and more in the Quest airlock. Williams then configured Quest and staged a spacesuit inside the airlock for the upcoming spacewalk.

NASA flight engineer Jack Hathaway worked on spacesuit maintenance inside Quest, filling water tanks and cleaning a water-cooling system that keeps the suit’s temperature stable during a spacewalk.

Flight engineer Sophie Adenot of ESA (European Space Agency) briefly inspected another spacesuit preparing it for a fit check then readied two cameras and their thermal shields for spacewalk photography duties.

NASA will soon announce the two spacewalking astronauts and provide a live televised briefing with more details this week.

Vision tests were on the schedule on Monday as Williams took turns with cosmonauts Sergey Kud-Sverchkov and Sergei Mikaev reading characters off a standard eye chart inside the Destiny laboratory module.

Kud-Sverchkov, the station’s commander, then photographed and inspected docking components on the Rassvet and Poisk modules.

Mikaev partnered with flight engineer Andrey Fedyaev, both Roscosmos flight engineers, for more testing of artificial intelligence tools to boost crew efficiency and communications in space.

Elon Musk and NASA’s Chief Are Looking at Antimatter to Reach Other Star Systems

June 22, 2026

A short exchange on X pulled antimatter propulsion back into view. Elon Musk posted that in the future a trillion times a trillion dollars will go toward making antimatter so people can travel to other star systems.

He added that later civilizations may measure wealth in mass and energy rather than currency. NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman replied that he supports antimatter propulsion.

Antimatter is essentially the mirror image of normal matter. Every electron has a positron, which is identical to it but has the opposite charge. Each proton contains an antiproton. E = mc² states that when particles collide, their mass is converted into energy.

When one gram of antimatter collides with one gram of normal matter, it produces energy equivalent to around 43 kilotons of TNT, nearly three times that of the Hiroshima bomb.

Chemical rockets can only convert a small portion of their fuel into energy, and nuclear fusion is nowhere near as efficient as antimatter’s near-total conversion.

The fact that you can get a lot more oomph from a lot less mass has a significant impact on the type of spacecraft you can build.

Current engines must carry the majority of their weight in propellant, which is then discarded as soon as it is spent. An antimatter system might provide a lot more kick for a lot less weight.

What used to take six to nine months to get to Mars could now be done in weeks, and getting to the nearest stars, which takes tens of thousands of years with current technology, could be done in a human lifetime or a few decades at a few percent of lightspeed.

Less time in space implies less radiation and weightlessness for any crew, which is a significant benefit.

Several ideas have been proposed to turn annihlation into thrust. One approach is to combine streams of antimatter and matter in a dedicated chamber, where the resultant particles and radiation are blasted out the rear.

Another does the same thing, but uses the energy to heat up propellant such as hydrogen, which then expands and generates thrust.

Then there’s the concept of using tiny amounts of antimatter to initiate larger nuclear fusion or fission reactions, which would stretch the limited antimatter supply even further.

Every one of these approaches is trying to solve the same problem: how to take the energy release and turn it into push without wiping out the ship.

The trouble is that creating antimatter is an absolute nightmare. Particle accelerators generate it by smashing particles together, however the method creates extremely little amounts.

After years of experimentation, places such as CERN have only been able to produce nanograms. Getting to the amounts required to create even a small probe would necessitate discovering new ways to manufacture it and much more effective ways to collect it.

MODERN SKIES: Trump’s Transportation Secretary Sean P. Duffy Selects Air Space Intelligence to Deploy State-of-the-Art Air Traffic Control Software, Revolutionize Our Skies

Monday, June 22, 2026

U.S. Transportation Secretary Sean P. Duffy and FAA Administrator Bryan Bedford today announced that the FAA has awarded a contract to Air Space Intelligence (ASI) for two complementary, cutting-edge technologies that will improve how flights are scheduled and managed throughout the National Airspace System.

The Flow Management Data and Services (FMDS) will be the new technological backbone of the FAA’s Air Traffic Control System Command Center. It balances air traffic demand with capacity and provides the data that underpins traffic management.

Strategic Management of Airspace, Routes, and Trajectories (SMART), an enhancement within FMDS, will use that data to prevent congestion and delays by strategically coordinating schedules and trajectories before aircraft depart.

Together, these technologies will:

Reduce flight delays

Improve traffic flow

Increase airspace capacity

The Problem:

While very safe, our National Airspace System (NAS) could be more predictable, efficient, and optimized to use available capacity.

The current NAS operation has a limited ability to anticipate the effects of the number and timing of forecasted flights and the effects of unplanned events such as weather, runway closures, and other capacity limits.

Additionally, it doesn’t identify and take advantage of large amounts of available airspace. We react to, rather than predict, these constraints, resulting in bottlenecks throughout the day, which have ripple effects throughout the entire country.

Compounding the situation, the data controllers rely on – from weather patterns to airport capacity – are all housed in different systems. Controllers often have to use numerous screens and spreadsheets to access this crucial information.

The Solution:

With these two new technologies, the FAA can house all critical data in one platform and proactively identify delays and available airspace to mitigate them days, weeks, and even months in advance.

These systems will also allow controllers to overlay weather patterns and flight paths into one central visualization.

Rep. Dan Goldman’s Chief of Staff Revealed to Be Leather Kink Artist Following Confrontation Outside New Jersey ICE Facility – Goldman Responds!

A congressional staffer for Rep. Dan Goldman (D-NY) has been exposed for his weird sexual kinks and affiliations with LGBTQ groups, prompting a response from Dan Goldman.

The reveal of the employee’s lifestyle is reminiscent of Aidan Maese-Czeropski, a former staffer for Democrat Maryland Senator Ben Cardin, who was caught filming a hardcore gay sex tape in a Senate Hearing Room inside the Capitol.

Reporter Cam Higby claimed that John Blasco, who serves as Goldman’s Interim Chief of Staff and Senior Advisor, touched him when he attempted to confront Goldman during a press conference outside of the Delaney Hall Detention Center recently.

Blasco is seen in a video from outside of the detention center confronting Higby and raising an issue with his use of the term “illegal aliens.”“Are you here for the immigrants being detained?” he asks. “You called them illegal aliens. Who are you?”

The video goes on to expose Blasco’s affiliation and leadership roles with various sexual kink groups for gay and bisexual men. Higby goes on to call Blasco a “pervert who touches other people without consent.”

Space Force Mission Goes from Orders to Launch in Less than 17 Hours

June 23, 2026

Pioneer will soon begin a multiphased rendezvous operation with a second satellite already on orbit—True Anomaly’s Jackal spacecraft, which launched in early May on a SpaceX Falcon 9.

“With launch complete, the team will now complete on-orbit checkout and vehicle commissioning, after which RPO operations begin,” Space Systems Command said in a June 22 statement.

“During these operations, the teams operating both the Rocket Lab and the True Anomaly space vehicles will conduct a variety of scenarios, demonstrating space domain awareness and characterization capabilities, each in dynamic engagements with the other.”

In its own statement, Rocket Lab said it activated and prepared its spacecraft for its first orbital maneuver in 37 hours and 36 minutes, well ahead of the Space Force’s 72-hour deadline.

Meanwhile, True Anomaly said in a statement that its Jackal satellite is now fully operational and ready to support RPO missions.

“VICTUS HAZE will generate the data, operational experience, and institutional knowledge the Space Force needs to make TacRS a ready, repeatable capability,” the company said.

“Every task that True Anomaly and Rocket Lab complete during this mission advances that goal.”

Although the Space Force confirmed the mission days after it lifted off, the service’s own space object database reported the satellite’s arrival in orbit as soon as June 20, according to Jonathan McDowell, as an astrophysicist who closely tracks on-orbit activity.

McDowell reported that Rocket Lab’s satellite appeared to pass within about 100 kilometers of the Jackal satellite on the evening of June 19.

SpaceWERX and the Defense Innovation Unit awarded contracts in 2024 to True Anomaly and Rocket Lab to develop spacecraft for the mission.

Rocket Lab provided its own rocket to launch its space vehicle, and True Anomaly contracted with Firefly Aerospace to launch Jackal on its Alpha vehicle.

The mission was initially scheduled for 2025 but was delayed after Firefly’s Alpha rocket experienced multiple anomalies last year. Although Alpha returned to flight in March, True Anomaly opted to launch Jackal on a SpaceX rideshare mission.

A Firefly spokesperson told Air & Space Forces Magazine the firm will participate in future TacRS missions with its upgraded Alpha Block II rocket, which incorporates upgrades it developed following the mishaps last year.

Firefly is already on contract for an effort called Victus Sol, but the spokesperson indicated it will fly Jackal on a separate mission in the future.

🚨 TUESDAY TAKEDOWN 🚨

Steal from SNAP. Get caught and arrested.

8 fraudsters just learned the hard way: the @USDA_FNA is watching.

Amounts ranged from $1,000+ to a staggering $2.8 MILLION — all stolen from the program meant to help American families.

Since February 2025, we’ve made nearly 1,000 arrests for SNAP fraud and we are not letting up.

We’re protecting taxpayer dollars and the integrity of food assistance. Every single time.

Due to the success of this FBI led by the @WHFraudTF along with @TheJusticeDept and our interagency partners - arresting TWO of the Most Wanted Fraudsters in just two weeks - today we are adding two new subjects to the Most Wanted Fraudster List to replace the ones that have been caught.

Khalid Ahmed Satary is wanted for his alleged involvement in a $547 million Health Care Fraud Conspiracy.

Emylee Thai was charged by indictment with conspiracy to commit health care fraud, conspiracy to defraud the United States and pay and receive health care kickbacks, and payment of kickbacks in connection with a federal health care program. Thai’s laboratory billed Medicare approximately $142 million for genetic testing and was paid approximately $95 million on those claims.

Both have been on the run since 2022. If you have any information that would lead to their apprehension 1-800-CALL-FBI

MTG captures Earth at June solstice

22/06/2026

Yesterday, at 10:24 CEST, the Sun reached its most northerly point in the sky, marking the longest day of the year and the summer solstice in the Northern Hemisphere, when Earth’s North Pole is tilted towards the Sun.

This image of Earth, with the day-night terminator line clearly visible, was captured by the Meteosat Third Generation (MTG) mission.

The MTG-Imager satellite (MTG-I1) passed overhead at 10:30 CEST and was able to make the acquisition just six minutes after the June solstice.

The image shows the African continent and Europe bathed in sunlight, while lights are visible off the eastern coast of South America, which is still in night-time.

A third satellite for the MTG constellation – MTG-I2 – will launch this summer on Ariane 6 to join the two MTG satellites already in orbit.

The mission is designed to produce images in unprecedented detail. It provides completely new data products and capabilities for European weather forecasting, especially suited to nowcasting of severe weather events.

The MTG-Imager satellites carry two instruments: a Lightning Imager and a Flexible Combined Imager. The MTG satellites are developed by the European Space Agency (ESA) for Eumetsat.

Supreme Court OKs ExxonMobil lawsuit over Cuban property seized by Fidel Castro’s government

June 8, 2026,

WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court on Tuesdayruled that ExxonMobil can sue Cuban state-owned companies in American courts over property on the island nation that was seized after Fidel Castro took power.

The 6-3 decision was the second in as many months in favor of U.S. owners of Cuban property that was confiscated by the Communist government more than 65 years ago.

The outcome in the two cases could be an additional lever for the Trump administration toexert pressure on Cuba, which is already being squeezed by a U.S. oil embargo.

At issue was whether the 1996 law known as Helms-Burton removes the shield from lawsuits in U.S. courts that typically cover foreign countries and state-owned businesses.The justices reversed a lower-court ruling that found that the Cuban state-owned companies are immune from lawsuits in U.S. courts.

ExxonMobil is seeking compensation for the confiscation of assets owned by subsidiaries of Standard Oil, Exxon Mobil’s predecessor,including more than 100 service stations and an oil refinery.

Last month, the court ruled in another case involving confiscated property in Cuba, reviving claims by the U.S. company that operated docks in Havana against four cruise lines that brought tourists to Cuba during the brief thaw in relations during the Obama administration. That case turned on the same section of Helms-Burton allowing lawsuits over seized property.

Congress passed the law in response to the 1996 downing of civilian planes flown by Miami-based exiles.

Title III of the law allows Americans to sue almost any company that engages in commercial activity or benefits from property confiscated by Cuba’s government.

Before the first Trump administration, every president had suspended the provision because of objections from U.S. allies doing business in Cuba and the effect on future negotiated settlements between the U.S. and Cuba.

But Trump lifted the suspension in 2019, and ExxonMobil filed its lawsuit the same day.

The U.S. Foreign Claims Settlement Commission, an arm of the Justice Department,said in 1969 that the value of ExxonMobil’s property in Cuba is $71.6 million, plus 6% annual interest beginning in 1960. That would be worth around $3 billion today, plus treble damages.

In addition, the commission found that nearly 6,000 individuals and businesses held claims worth $1.9 billion, before adding in interest or damages.
