I'm an actual rocket scientist (Aerospace Engineer), but when I'm not doing that I'm making maps and flags of worlds that never were and have yet to be.

I was wondering after reading about Iceland’s preparations, has the collapse of the Atlantic Current been a component of the Flood for you?
As an Aerospace Engineer, and given that this is within your field of expertise, Sean Duffy is purportedly attempting to thwart Jared Isaacman’s renomination in an effort to secure the title of NASA Administrator permanently. What is your opinion of Isaacman for the position of Administrator? Are his proposals for Project Athena (including nuclear electric propulsion, the Mars Program, NASA reorganization, and purchasing data from the private sector) feasible for the long term? I have some doubts about certain proposals, such as ending climate science-related research.
Isaacman would probably get fired by Trump eventually because his far and away the most qualified person this administration has ever nominated for anything, and Trump doesn't like not being the smartest man in the room.
Athena is... interesting. Not really as radical as it claims to be, more of a codification of what most people expected NASA to do with Artemis, a bone thrown to Trump's contempt for climate science, and adopting a "science-as-a-service" platform that really just takes the CLPS model agency-wide.
SLS was probably never gonna survive past Artemis III, the program is wildly overbudget and behind schedule, and mostly exists as a government funded giveaway to older contractors addicted to cost-plus projects. NASA has wanted to increase its data flows through private contractors for years, and has made a lot of effort to do just that within the constraints Congress imposed. Gutting climate science is objectively stupid though.
Primaries are going to be bloody...
Zohran’s done it!!! What do you envision the effects will be on the party and the country?
The Old Guard will grumble and try to undermine him, particularly among the New York Democratic Party, whose power has been slipping for years and who've shown consistently that they care MUCH more about their own personal power than the success of the party.
However, the party as a whole is overwhelmingly behind him, and doesn't ask, "how," they ask "How many." Nationally a lot of people will treat him with suspicion and contempt because Muslim Socialist. As for the Republicans... I don't know what they'll do. Smart thing would be to just snipe from FOX and Twitter. If they try to stop him from taking office, or deport him, they'll face civil unrest in New York and a lot of other cities. Not good given their outsized impact on the economy.
As from the way things look now, do you think Zohran’s Victory is being seen as a turning point? Meaning that now we have approached the stage where it is now officially the beginning of the end of Neo-Liberal Dominance within the Democratic Party?
