I was recently asked what would happen if I used the same equipment I shot planets with to shoot our moon. Well, this: A 562 megapixel image, featuring one of the most detailed looks at the craters of our moon I've ever done. Zoom in to your heart's content.

It is late Saturday night at Berlin central train station and there are still tons of volunteers, food, water, tea, clothes bins, even a COVID testing desk for those arriving from Ukraine.

Now that the Russians have switched tactics from pursuing a rapid victory on the cheap (failed miserably) and reverted to the mean of leveling Ukrainian cities to the ground like they did with Grozny and Aleppo, the goals of the operation are likely changing as well 🧵

Watching Putin's attack on Ukraine play out, I am struck by the thought that Putin learned the lesson from the wrong Afghanistan war. And he has also vastly misunderstood post-Zelenskiy Ukraine. 1/?

Ich fürchte, die Ukrainekrise ist erst am Anfang und wird eskalieren. Putin hat sich in mehrfacher Hinsicht verrechnet. Zum einen wird es nicht so schnell und nicht so leicht, die militärischen Ziele zu erreichen, er liegt bereits jetzt im Zeitplan zurück.

It is regrettable that many Western commentators repeated Putin’s narrative that the problem came from an aggressive NATO expansion aimed at encircling Russia. Time for a reset of narratives. Here are some simple insights, informed by our work on the game theory of alliances. 🧵
