7/ Given the size of the Vatican City 🇻🇦, the 88 countries that have diplomatic missions with the Holy See have their embassies not in their city-state, but in the surrounding streets of Rome, Italy 🇮🇹.
It’s only one of two sovereign states to have no resident embassies, the other being Liechtenstein 🇱🇮, and also leads to the fun situation where the Italian embassy to the Vatican is within Italian borders! Very geoweird.
A novel written in a kind of medieval-y "realistic fantasy" setting with a plot point that a day's ride from the town, deep in the desert, is a field of one thousand mirrors which a lost ancient civilization built for some unknown reason and laid out in a grid pattern. One character is obsessed with figuring out why. The mirrors face the rising sun— did they worship the sun? Is it devotional? Were they trying to show the sun to itself?

You are all aware of the uncontrolled reentry of the failed Soviet era COSMOS 482 Venera Venus lander tonight.
Here is the trajectory map from Aerospace Corp. with some added annotations to help make sense of it. It shows 6 orbital tracks over 8 hours centered around the expected reentry time. It will strike the ground along one of these tracks, but not between them. Reentry will occur near the northern end of the orbit.
Launch date: Mar 31, 1972
Weight: ~495 kg

Schon Mal versucht Klopapierpreise transparent zu berechnen? Die Unterschiedlichen Rollen / Blätter / Lagen machen das fast unmöglich.

This clip must be shown in schools and shopping centres in all regions of eastern Germany. The hapless German reporter asks whether it would have been possible to commemorate the end of the war alongside the Russians, "not necessarily hand in hand", but perhaps side by side, to which the Ukrainian ambassador to Germany, Oleksii Makeiev, replies coolly: "They kill us every day."
Data,
I have followed your instructions. However, your animal has produced a strange wet object on the carpet in my quarters. I have sent the object to Dr. Crusher for analysis. I will notify you when she has made her diagnosis.

Einen bereits im Amt gescheiterten Minister wie Dobrindt aus Parteiproporz ausgerechnet das wichtige Innenministerium anzuvertrauen, war ein fataler Fehler. Das wird der Lindner der neuen Regierung.
