@Muzz I just sent you a dm, not sure if you read those.

We were accused of "seeking donations" on Nostr. We are considering closing the donations channel because it evidently triggers people. We don't want money. Do we need it? Not exactly. We need a couple of laboratories, instruments, for decentralized research. Nothing else. Donations won't give us that, of course, we never expected them to give us that. We tried to contact wealthy people that could donate an entire laboratory or even just borrow instruments to continue with our research. This proved itself to be extremely hard to accomplish. Other than that, our activity has been about raising awareness about the importance of the issues we're trying to solve, and the relevance of our discovery. Maybe we need to change our approach. In any case: donations are NOT welcome right now. We will update our website as soon as possible to reflect this reality.

Japan plans to establish a new 1 trillion yen ($6.6 billion) fund to develop the country's outer space industry. "We believe it is a necessary fund to speed up our country's space development so we don't lag behind the increasingly intensifying international competition," Sanae Takaichi, minister in charge of space development, said in a news conference last week. The Japan Times reports: The fund will be allocated over a 10-year period for the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA), an Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology Ministry spokesperson said. Some 300 billion yen has been set aside for the fund in the latest supplementary budget approved by the Cabinet on Friday. The funding, which will support JAXA and the development of Japan's space industry, was a response to increased public and private sector focus on space activities. Back in June, Tokyo unveiled a Space Basic Plan, detailing budgetary support for innovation in the private sector as an area of business growth. At the same time, it also unveiled a Space Security Initiative, which labeled space "a major arena for geopolitical competition for national power over diplomacy, defense, economic, and intelligence, as well as the science and technology and innovation that support these national powers."
