TACO & PACO. Top Story - June 2025.
On June 1, 2025 Ukraine conducted a massive drone attack on strategic bomber airfields deep in Russia. So deep the drones had to be delivered in secret double ceiling containers by long-haul trucks. The operation had been planned for 1.5 years in complete secrecy and had been personally supervised by President Zelenskyy. The drone attack was incredibly successful as Ukraine claims it has destroyed 41 bombers, or roughly one-third of Russian strategic bomber fleet.

A dark cloud of dust and gas, known as the cometary globule CG 4, appears to be reaching out to gobble up the spiral galaxy ESO 257-19. In reality, they are separated by a chasm of 100 million light-years.

Oscar Winner: Stutterer
In my last Media Literacy class, I always show this movie to my students as a perfect example of how media content works and affects us at different dimensions. I must have seen this 13-minute movie at least a dozen times, but it still hits me hard every time I watch it. It's just such a simple and powerful human story. Here's my personal analysis:
