Hello!
I'm Cassian, I'm nonbinary (they/them) and I live in Wales. I mostly post about TV I'm watching, surveys I'm interested in, being neurodivergent, environment stuff, things I'm making, and spontaneous grumpy rants of little consequence.
I do the @gendercensus annually.
I first tried the Fediverse over 10 years ago, but didn't really get ensconced until the first wave of Mastodon in 2016.

China has begun building its first "super plant" for reusable rockets in Hangzhou. The $740M facility, led by private firm Space Epoch, will produce up to 25 medium-to-large rockets annually, designed for sea recovery. This aims to slash launch costs by 75% and marks a major step in scaling up China's commercial space sector.
Hardly ever mentioned but re-usable rockets are a form of #recycling and could be categorized as a #climatefriendly #green industry
