Thank you for this! I am an old lady, and this was unknown ancient history to me. I appreciate learning about the IGY, and am so terribly sad about how awry things appear to have gone… but it did establish some amazing precedents!

The parallel you drew to today’s fragmented scientific landscape really stood out.

Thank you for sharing such a hopeful and deeply thought provoking reflection on what’s possible when we choose collaboration over division.

I really appreciate the stamp; it echoes and complements your good piece of writing about IGY. There must be a few more stamps out there to collect to strengthen the persistence for balancing our Earth with cooperative stewardship.
