Long-lost model of the USS Enterprise returned to Roddenberry family: It showed up in an eBay listing; now Roddenberry's son wants to show it to fans.

Quick Glance: Lost USS Enterprise Model Returned to Roddenberry Family

A mysterious model of the USS Enterprise NCC-1701 was discovered on eBay and returned to the Roddenberry family.

The model, used for the pilot and credits scene of Star Trek's original series in the 1960s, went missing in the late 1970s.

After enthusiasts identified the model, it was turned over to Heritage Auctions and eventually returned to Gene Roddenberry's son.

Rod Roddenberry plans to restore the model and publicly exhibit it, possibly in a museum.

Google Fires 28 Employees Who Protested an Israeli Cloud Contract: The dismissals escalated longstanding tensions between company leaders and activist employees ...

Quick Glance: Google terminates 28 employees after office occupation due to anti-Israel protests

Google terminated 28 employees on Thursday who had occupied its offices to protest against contracts with the Israeli government, as confirmed by a Google spokesperson.

The protesters were arrested and after refusing to leave the office of Google Cloud CEO Thomas Kurian in Sunnyvale or the workspace in New York City for nearly 10 hours, they were transferred to administrative positions to urge Google to terminate the Project Nimbus contract and cease business with the Israeli government.

No Tech For Apartheid, a project by Jewish Voice for Peace and Linda Sarsour’s MPower Change, described the terminations as an "indiscriminate act of mass retaliation."

The office occupations at Google were accompanied by demonstrations on-site and in Seattle, aiming to compel Google to withdraw from the project to establish cloud-based data centers and transition a significant portion of the Israeli government's IT infrastructure to cloud-based servers.

Brazil's plans to drill for oil in the Amazon hit stiff Indigenous resistance: State-run energy firm Petrobras has hit growing resistance from Indigenous groups ...

Quick Glance: Brazil's Struggle Over Amazon Oil Drilling

Petrobras faces resistance from Indigenous groups and government agencies in its key exploration project to open Brazil's northern coast to oil drilling.

The denial of a drilling license in the Foz do Amazonas area due to potential impacts on Indigenous groups has led to organized opposition and a decision expected in 2024.

The conflict highlights a rift in Lula's government, balancing Amazon protection with oil interests, and the potential for a significant oil discovery in Amapa state.

Indigenous leaders demand consultation before drilling, amid concerns over environmental impact and the influx of migrant workers to Oiapoque.
