January 2025 was the original backup launch window for the Venus probe, according to the MIT Technology Review."

"Coffee's reputation as a pick-me-up has largely been attributed to its caffeine content. The stimulant increases activity in your brain and nervous system, dialing up adrenaline as well as hormones involved in your fight or flight response, like epinephrine and norepinephrine. You might perceive caffeine as a cognitive enhancer because of these effects. However, there hasn't been conclusive evidence showing it can improve cognitive or mental function."
