Winter's early arrival has left the Guiding Light Mission and other downtown missions short of coats, according to Stuart Ray, executive director of the mission at 255 S. Division Ave. "We could use 500 coats here," said Ray, whose agency in the Heartside neighborhood serves about 500 homeless and transient men every month. Guiding Light's donations locker had just one coat on hand when he checked on Friday, Nov. 14 - a cold morning with sub-freezing temperatures and snow on the ground.

Musks next mission: Blanketing the world with cheap internet access, via 700 low-orbit satellites

Elon Musk, capitalizing on SpaceX's unique ability to cheaply launch stuff into space, has announced that he's working on deploying a constellation of some 700 satellites, for the purpose of bringing "very low cost" internet access to everyone on Earth. Satellite internet access could be very useful in rural parts of North America and Europe, but it's the under-connected parts of the world (Asia, Africa, South America) that will be of more interest to Musk, both financially and ideologically.
