This Day in Labor History: October 27, 1948. An air inversion trapped the pollution spewed out by U.S. Steel-owned factories in Donora, Pennsylvania. The Donora Fog killed 20 people and sickened 6000 others. Let's talk about this deadly legacy of industrial pollution. That photo was taken at noon!

Review a book!

The New York Times@nytimes.com

More space debris is raining down on Earth than ever before — one effect of governments and companies like SpaceX racing to the skies. Last year, the U.S. issued alerts for nearly 820 objects entering Earth’s atmosphere, compared to 110 objects a decade ago. nyti.ms/4fM4whG
