Giving it four solely to “acknowledge” the false controversy. Had Dr. Tyson been found guilty in civilian court; had the prosecution failed to complete its own case; etc, etc. I’m commenting solely on the work, which is overdue. Everyone knows the iconic (and somewhat manufactured) moment when President Eisenhower warned of a “military industrial complex.” We overlook his enthusiastic participation in its birth.

This work does a GREAT job of highlighting how totally unrelated geopolitical events were used to justify bending science to the whims of the those who enjoy the application of organized violence. It’s overdue.
