Today's riddle: Why do fish live in salt water? 🤔 (Answer below!)
• Japan just launched a U.S. military payload into orbit, giving Washington another set of eyes over the Indo-Pacific (techradar.com) — Lexington's MIT Lincoln Laboratory designed and built both U.S. surveillance payloads just launched with Japanese satellites, giving local engineers a direct hand in monitoring the Indo-Pacific from space. The mission deepens U.S.-Japan security cooperation and will feed near real-time orbital data to the Space Surveillance Network, highlighting how work done in Lexington influences global military space operations.
• Ed Markey's case for 6 more years in the Senate (lexobserver.org) — Sen. Ed Markey sat down with the Lexington Observer and neighboring outlets to argue why he deserves another six-year Senate term, contrasting his progressive agenda with challenger Seth Moulton. He ties his support for Medicare for All, free community college, climate investment, and fare-free transit to benefits for Massachusetts communities, including filling empty Lexington lab space with clean-energy companies and improving regional transportation and housing.
