Pax Judaica (Latin for "Jewish Peace") is a hypothetical future period of peace in the Middle East based on Israeli regional hegemony. Modeled on Pax Romana and Pax Americana, it has gained traction in contemporary geopolitical and eschatological discussions, though it is often associated with conspiracy theories and fringe narratives.
US Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee in an interview with US conservative podcaster Tucker Carlson endorsed the idea of Pax Judaica and stated that Israel has a biblical right to “Greater Israel” from “Nile to Euphrates”, including Jordan, Syria, Lebanon and parts of Saudi Arabia and Iraq. 
In the work of scholars like Sheikh Imran Hosein, "Pax Judaica" represents the third and final stage of the global order and precursor to the appearance of the Antichrist (Al-Masih ad-Dajjal).
The , also known in the West as Atragon, is a fictional flying multipurpose warship that has appeared in several tokusatsu films of Toho Company, Ltd., beginning with Atragon in 1963.
It was first conceived by author Shunrō Oshikawa in his 1899 novel Kaitei Gunkan ("Undersea Battleship"), of which Atragon was an adaptation produced by Toho Studios. The submarine is heavily armed and armored, but its trademark tactic is to ram and sink enemy ships. In cinema, the submarine is easily identifiable by the enormous drill on its bow; it is also notable for being able to burrow underground and fly.
Design
For the 1977 film The War in Space, the Gotengo was redesigned as a space battleship, but containing the basic design elements as well as new weapons (such as an detachable drill which acts as a very destructive projectile weapon) to fight off an evil alien invasion force on Venus.
For the 2004 film Godzilla: Final Wars, the Gotengo is used mostly for battling monsters. For instance, in the first sequence it is battling the monster Godzilla in the 1960s, resulting in Godzilla's burial under hundreds of feet of ice. Immediately after the opening credits, the upgraded and futuristic version of it known as the New Gotengo is locked in battle against the sea dragon Manda in the 2000s, which the ship defeats with an emergency maneuver through an underwater volcano and a combination of the Absolute Zero Cannon and drill. Later on, during the Xilien-induced monster attacks on major cities, the New Gotengo is dispatched to destroy them. However, the only weapon that truly works to destroy the alien threat is Godzilla himself.
One year after Final Wars, in the 2005 film Chousei Kantai Sazer-X the Movie: Fight! Star Warriors, the Gotengo is described as a superweapon that was near-completion, the Gotengo is launched early to assist the Sazer-X team in fighting against the Bosquito threat.

"I have two Microsoft Outlooks and neither one of those are working" was spoken by Commander Reid Wiseman, an astronaut on Artemis II, while speaking with Mission Control in Houston.
It referred to the popular Microsoft email client program, Microsoft Outlook, describing its failure. While outer space presents its own problems for any technology, this quote resonated on Earth due to the ubiquity of bugs and other errors common to Outlook and other Microsoft products.
