"The buyer of a massive Thunderbird 3 space rocket mistakenly believed they were purchasing a miniature model, it has been revealed. A former employer of Humberside Airport in North Lincolnshire, Andrew Bellamy, said the son of one of the site's former owners made the error in 2008 when they bid on a replica. Mr Bellamy, who worked at the airport for 20 years, said when they turned in Blackpool to retrieve the replica to bring it back to Humberside, where it remains,"
Coverage spans reproductive rights, climate change and Big Tech, investigating financial operations such as Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC and producing documentaries like 'The A Word' that spotlight American women fighting for reproductive rights.
