      <description>The project deck picked up three new cards. INFLATION joins the civic-research dashboards with the 2019–2025 cost-of-living story; BackyardDSN is a static DIY deep-space reference and utility console; nova-dash is the self-hosted homelab dashboard, in internal preview.

· INFLATION (active) — inflation.blackmesalabs.org, SvelteKit + Observable Plot

· BackyardDSN (active) — backyarddsn.blackmesalabs.org, static reference console

· nova-dash (preview) — internal homelab dashboard, Next.js 16

· All three flow through $lib/tools.ts, so deck, footer, [ties] dropdown, and sitemap update from one source</description>

      <description>The landing page is no longer a wall of project cards. The deck moved to /projects, and the home page now leads with a live &quot;What is NASA doing?&quot; ticker that pulls active Deep Space Network links and recent DONKI space-weather notifications.

Added per-project readme pages with methodology + source notes for SPENDING, LIECHART, FARM, and friends. NCENTCOM and OSSmile picked up cards for the first time.

· New /projects index with status filters (active / preview / research)

· New /about, /changelog, /notes, /rss.xml routes

· NASA ticker polls /api/nasa, which proxies DSN Now + NASA DONKI server-side

· Footer + sitemap derive from one source of truth in $lib/tools.ts</description>
