Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Letโs hope others follow suit.

Today we say goodbye to ESAโs Milky Way-mapper Gaia! The Gaia spacecraft has completed its sky-scanning and will be switched off this morning.
