    I could have saved this puzzle for Earth Day, assuming it’s not outlawed by the Despoiler of All Things Precious and Good, but I’ve been making my way through Cixin Liu’s brilliant “Three-Body Problem” trilogy and felt compelled to publish it a month early.

      That was fun. One suggestion: I think the clue for 6A isn't quite correct. "Uno" is something you say when you're one turn away from winning (and the opponent still has a chance to try to stop you), but "mate" is what you say when you've won.

        Thanks for solving, and thanks for pointing that out - I'll fix it!

              This was a great one! It’s rare that I know all the big clues and don’t know the short ones :) thank you for making a puzzle that reminds me how much fun it was to watch PBS Nova.
