    Matthew Shindell explores the history of robotic exploration, starting with political shifts during the Nixonadministration that pivoted NASA away from post-Apollo human Mars missions. He emphasizes the extraordinary success of the Mariner and Viking programs, which provided the first surface-level scientific data from the red planet. Shindell tracks technological evolution through modern milestones like the Perseverance rover and the Ingenuityhelicopter. While figures like Elon Musk aim for human settlement, Shindell stresses the immense technical and biological challenges involved. These include protecting astronauts from radiation and ensuring survival during the long wait for favorable planetary alignment. (4/4) July 1952

    Matthew Shindell examines the Scientific Revolution, noting how pioneers like Galileo and Newton gradually replaced ancient models with modern physics and natural history. By the 18th century, William Herschel popularized the idea of an inhabited Mars, believing it to be the most Earth-like planet in the solar system. This curiosity peaked with Giovanni Schiaparelli's mapping of Martian "canals," which Percival Lowell later interpreted as evidence of a desperate, dying civilization. Shindell notes that H.G. Wells transformed these projections into satire, using The War of the Worlds to critique British imperialism through the lens of an alien invasion. (3/4)september 1941

    Matthew Shindell discusses the Islamic Renaissance, noting that scholars in Baghdad and Damascus conducted rigorous scientific observations while Western Europe possessed only fragmented ancient knowledge. This era's large-scale translation movement and original astronomical research eventually fueled the later European Renaissance. Shindellalso analyzes Dante Alighieri's reinterpretation of Mars in the Divine Comedy, where the planet represents a celestial sphere of virtue. Moving beyond traditional associations with war, Dante portrays Mars as a symbol of fortitude and holy martyrdom. This literary shift connected the red planet to the sacrifice of Christ and his followers. (2/4)1917 Burroughs

    Matthew Shindell explores how ancient civilizations interpreted Mars to understand their connection to the cosmos. He explains that archaeologists studying the Mayan Dresden Codex identified a "Mars beast" representing the planet's opposition and retrograde motion. In ancient China, astronomy served as a political tool, where planetary patterns helped hold rulers accountable for maintaining heavenly harmony. Shindell highlights Mesopotamian omen-tracking as the foundational "birth of science" due to their meticulous record-keeping and predictive mathematics. Finally, he discusses how Greek philosophers like Aristotle and Ptolemy struggled to reconcile Mars's erratic behavior with their earth-centered models. (1/4)june 1954

    Elbridge Colby argues that the U.S. must prioritize Asia as the primary theater, as China stands a plausible chance of regional hegemony unlike Russia. While maintaining NATO, the U.S. should shift conventional obligations to Europeans, as America cannot handle simultaneous major conflicts. Regarding nuclear proliferation, Colby warns that independent arsenals for allies like Australia or Japan are not a panacea for conventional weakness. Instead, a robust conventional defense is preferred to avoid the dilemma of "going nuclear first" or surrendering autonomy to Beijing'sdictate. (8/8)

    Elbridge Colby explains that the binding strategy addresses the psychological aspect of war by preparing for the resolve and morale required for a larger conflict. It aims to force China into a dilemma: accept the status quo or take actions that inevitably catalyze the coalition's collective resolve. By integrating the defense of allies like Japan and Australia, the U.S. ensures that a Chinese move against Taiwan precipitates a wider war China would likely lose. This strategy leverages Thumos, or spiritedness, to ensure that Chinese aggression triggers a "don't tread on me" reaction from nationalistic regional powers. (7/8)SEPTEMBER 1932
