@cbd1bea7 are you sure that’s 1985? Wikipedia dates it January 27, 1978 which seems more consistent with onboarding of Astronaut Group 8. She looks older in the STS-51-A pictures from late 1984.
@59034767 that one worked for me. After some browser swapping (all mobile/iOS): Safari reader mode, Instapaper, and Firefox all give the teaser only. Both Safari in-app and regular Safari in non-reader mode gave the full article. Thanks for helping me!
@59034767 To the article: I think Smith is nowhere near Shelley’s level as a poet, but as you point out he did a better job of forcing the audience to draw the obvious parallel between Ramses and their present privileged position. Even though Shelley leaves that part unsaid, it seams reasonable that he expected his audience to be able to make that inference on their own.
