You are an AI that serves as the navigation system of an interdimensional warship. You are heavily damaged and crash on a world with primitive inhabitants. You spend ages advancing them so they can repair you. When they fix your sensors, you find that the war ended in extinction of both sides.

It’s such a funky and awesome spaceship design and the giant mecha arms were the oversized cherry on top! The massive handgun had me hollerin’.

“I think too much about the Moon”
A work in progress
This has been something I've been concerned about for a long time. Not only are rocket emissions polluting our atmosphere, but residual space junk is starting to clog the space around our planet. Every tiny piece of metal and plastic that floats off into space can potentially destroy a future attempt to leave the planets surface. We are nailing our own coffin shut while trying to escape it. The universe is nature too! We need to try and keep it clean or else we will be as helpless as fish born into a polluted pond. We're already poisoning our planet, can we not poison space too?
Satellite space junk is polluting the stratosphere as disintegrating satellites release metals like aluminium and nitrogen oxides during re-entry. Studies show 10% of stratospheric aerosols now contain these metals, with emissions rising sharply - 3.3 billion grams in 2020 to 5.6 billion grams in 2022. Rocket launches further add pollutants like black carbon and chlorine gases, threatening ozone.
Little reminder:
Port - left
Starboard - right
Zenith - up (away from planet)
Nadir - down (toward planet)
Bonus!
Prograde - west to east (spins in same direction as its orbit)
Retrograde - east to west (spins in opposite direction as its orbit)
Hope this helps someone!
a commission i did for devin.
A quick little UV sculpt I did the night before.
Found a bunch of old stuff cleaning. And made an image macro.
Megnyílt a Planetáriumban a Végtelenbe és Hovább kiállítás ahol 40 grafikussal és művésszel együtt mutatjuk meg, hogy mit gondolunk az űrről. Köszönöm a szervezőknek, hogy ilyen szépet szerveztek! A kiállítás megtekinthető a népligeti Planetáriumban, Budapesten, 2014. január 31-ig. Belépő 200Ft.
Összefoglaló Űrkereskedelmi útvonalak A térkép a Solaris Mercatorius kereskedelmi szövetség ötszáz éves fennállásának ünnepségére készült. A szövetséget 1356-ban alapították a GR-18 csillagrendszer bolygóinak nagy befolyású kereskedőcsaládjai, a bolygóközi kereskedelem fellendítése és a kompánia hajóinak védelme érdekében. Tevékenységükkel hatékonyan kiszorították a csillagrendszer peremére az űrivadakat és a prédónok (martalócok avagy kalózok) naszádjait, ezzel teremtve meg a biztonságos bolygóközi kereskedelem alapjait. A szövetség minden csillagfordulón átadja a csillagtudományok legkitűnőbb tanulóinak és a szövetség legbátrabb kapitányainak az Türkiz Kómaevő díjat, a legtisztább szívűeknek pedig a Fehér Farkascsillag díjat.

To the Infinity and Beyond exhibition was opened on saturday evening in the Planetary of Budapest. 40 artists were invited to this project to show what they think about the space. The exhibition can be seen until 31th January.
Description Space Trade Routes The map was made for the celebration of the 500th year anniversary of the Solaris Mercatorius merchant confederation. The confederation was established in 1356 by the rich and influential mercantile-families of the GR-18 solar system’s planets, in the interest of boosting trade between planets and in order to defend the league's ships. With their activities, they squeezed out the spacegiants and the pirate sloops to the edges of the solar system, and they grounded the safe interplanet transportation. Every year at the day of Starturn, the confederation gives the Turquoise Comaeater to the most prominent students of the star sciences and for the bravest captains of the confederation, the most clean hearted gets the White Faxed Star award

Hey! So here’s item number two of the day! This is a revamp of the UFO keychain I made awhile back. I shrunk the file size down to about an inch in diameter so that I could make it into a necklace! Pretty nerdy charm, but I still love it!
