Invasion plans for Haiti draw on Grenada lessons
General Bernard Trainor notes U S military preps for a potential Haiti operation mirror Grenada in practice and timing. He cites 2 000 Marines near Haiti, the USS Mount Whitney ready, and Marine 82nd Airborne night training while Haitian forces are weak and largely outmatched. The analysis warns of post invasion chaos and the need for humanitarian aid and international peacekeeping to prevent mob violence and ensure order.

Debut of Shoemaker Levy 9 Hits Jupiter Sparks Fireworks
Astronomers at Space Telescope Institute and observatories worldwide watched fragments of the 21 piece comet Shoemaker Levy 9 smash into Jupiter at high speed. Initial impact produced a dark scar and a plume, with scientists predicting larger explosions as more fragments collide over hours. Estimates said each event could release energy equivalent to thousands of megatons of TNT, though some warned the spectacle could fizzle due to viewing conditions and Jupiter’s gravity.
