@adaddinsane @paninid the OP did not blame or mention AI. That Google's once lauded algorithm is presenting this as the highlighted result however is problematic, as it demonstrates the general case of automated knowledge curation being unable to tell fact from fiction.

FWIW I don't get the same result. I get useful things like https://austria-in-space.at/
