From page 1 Martin also sees the banner as a celebration of Helen Sharman, one of the space mission’s two astronauts selected for full-time training at the Yuri Gagarin Cosmonaut Training Centre, Star City, Russia. Sharman was a food technologist for the confectionery company Mars, makers of the famous Mars bar, where she researched the flavourant properties of chocolate. The then-26-year-old was stuck in a traffic jam when she heard on the radio the advertisement for Juno astronauts. “Astronaut wanted,” said the ad. “No experience necessary.” Out of more than 13,000 applications, Sharman was one of the 150 who made the first cut. Then she was one of the two finalists who included Major Tim Mace, now deceased, and before long the press had coined Sharman “the girl from Mars”. “To think my query had a response from the famous astronaut herself gave me goosebumps,” says Martin. He apologises to Juno for the pun. “Helen — I like to think we’re on a first name basis, albeit by email from Dan — said the banner was likely an early version of the Juno logo used in the early selection process.” Martin is over the moon (to coin a phrase) this snippet was provided by the woman who trained for 18 months at the Gagarin Cosmonaut Training Centre at Star City, Russia, while learning to speak Russian, and then made history when she was launched into space aboard the Soyuz TM-12 rocket. The rocket docked with the MIR space station and, along with Mace and Soviet cosmonauts Anatoly Artsebarksy and Sergei Krikalev, Sharman spent eight days in orbit around Earth. “This close contact was better than getting JUNO ANYTHING my photo taken with Captain Kirk,” says ABOUT THIS?: Martin who, of course, has a picture of Gisborne man himself and his wife with William Shatner.

But this is the last time round for this 19 20 21 scenario, for technological reasons. Hamas’s current weapons — home-made, 22 23 inaccurate rockets — mean that it can only target large areas like cities, so it reaps the 24 25 26 27 blame for targeting civilians. Israel kills many 28 more civilians in practice, but since it uses precision weapons it can plausibly claim that 29 30 31 32 33 34 it tries to avoid killing innocent people. (It usually does try, but the weapons are not that 35 36 precise.) Coming soon, however, are next-generation 37 38 39 40 armed drones that are cheap, highly accurate, 41 and very hard to detect or intercept. We saw early versions of them at work in last year’s 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 war in the Caucasus, where Azerbaijani drones decimated a conventional tanks-and-artillery 51 52 53 54 Armenian army. When Hamas gets them, probably in only a few years’ time, it will face a 55 56 57 58 choice. 59 It can use them for more effective terror attacks, targeting civilian buses, schools and 60 61 62 63 64 homes: lots of horror, huge Israeli reprisals, and no political gain. Or, if it’s smart, it can 65 only go after Israeli military targets: tanks, airfields, barracks, fuel storage areas and the 66 67 68 69 70 like. It gets the moral high ground, and gives 71 Israel a problem that is not soluble by military means. 72 73 74 75 76 What political deal might then ensue (if any) is very hard to imagine. However Israel, after 77 78 79 30 years when it could just avoid thinking 80 81 about a future of peaceful coexistence with the Palestinians, will have to engage with the 82 problem again. That would be a good start. ______83 84 85 ■ Gwynne Dyer’s new book is Growing Pains: The Future of Democracy (and Work). SATURDAY, MAY 22, 2021 9 TELEVISION
