Today's Video Focus: In the video Op-Ed above, the retired NASA astronaut Nicole Stott reflects on the three months she spent on the International Space Station, far from her husband and 7-year-old son. Living on the space station, being alone on a spacewalk, watching lightning storms crisscross the planet — all these experiences taught her that we’re all inherently connected, even when we’re physically far away.
In space, crew members had to make individual sacrifices for the survival of the spacecraft and success of the mission — and a safe return home.
Focus of the Day Article: The criminal bar has secured further hardship provisions from the government to sustain practitioners during the pandemic, as chambers report huge reductions in income. Full story - The Law Society Gazette
