Various Blender spacecraft #spacecraft

Learned a bit about modeling characters so I could finally make a rough ref model of Orion! #protogen #spaceship

I be at anthrocon 2026!

Fun old posters of the Orion spacecraft I have laying around (not the one I named myself after). Left is the constellation program design and the right is one that predates the name Orion.

Cassini spacecraft leaving Earth on top of Centaur upper stage. Back in October 2017 I made a series of Cassini themed artworks as a tribute to this amazing mission that gave us most breathtaking images of the other worlds. Painted in Procreate on iPad Pro.

Hard Burn

I had a blast at MFF last weekend celebrating my birthday and vibing with people. Finally have something to wear as well (even if it’s not finished) :3 #protogen #MFF2025

The Electric Space Cruiser, a fast planetary explorer with a 500 kWe nuclear turboelectric system driving 6000-12,000s Isp ion thrusters for 9 ton total mass. ntrs.nasa.gov/api/citation... It could reach Mercury in 1 year, and Jupiter or Saturn in 2 years.

Ganymede may have three separate underground oceans sandwiched between layers of increasingly weird ice. #space #art by "Aidan's Art" www.artstation.com/artwork/Wml8GN

Design study of a Nuclear-Electric probe for outer solar system missions, based on an upgraded 17.5 kWe Kilopower reactor and NEXT-C ion thrusters: ntrs.nasa.gov/api/citation... Average acceleration should be an anemic 8 *microgee* and it only delivers 10.3 km/s deltaV total.

Still not finished with the head but it’s complete enough to wear for Halloween! Still gotta clean up the fur and add the orange details but I finally got to be a silly proot :P

Protopumpkin with the beans #protogen #protobean

Another goofy protoship sticker design, this time based on a ship for my own sci-fi project called “Protostar” #protogen

Some quick exposures of M31, M33, and M101 from recently while hanging out with friends in a field #astrophoto #astronomy

Bruh rest in piss, he won't be missed. Bullying minorities and inspiring violence against them is more than enough to go on my shit list lmao Only sadness/concern I have today is about the retaliation we could see from this

Finished a commission for a nuclear #protogen friend! 10/10 would hug (while wearing a lead apron) protogen: @nuclearpulseproto.bsky.social art: @timberwolf.bsky.social #furryart #art #spaaace

Bean observatory finally back up and running after a long break…

First thought I had when this thing was revealed. Hopefully this thing doesn't end up with any xenomorphs onboard :P

I'm drinking the Bios Crash slurpee I hope it crashes my bios I hope I blue screen

This is a threat =:D (Kidding)

Proot update! #protogen

Less than an hour left of pride month, working on a new project! :D #pride #protogen

Tad bit late but happy pride month to all the awesome queer people I've met and am yet to meet! Special shout out to all of the queer space nerds out there <3 #pride #pridemonth

Antique hunting today, found some silly stuff, actually ended up buying ace combat 4 :P

VF-103 F-14!

Love my little copilot. Emotional support for 7.5 hours of continuous driving :|

Neon Navikea - typical dry cargo freighter designed to service colonies without extensive spacing infrastructure. The engine, as insane as it sounds, is a real though somewhat tenuous NASA proposal.

Orion Nuclear Pulse at Phobos. Everything by me, Phobos built on Gaea, everything rendered in Lightwave3d.

Amazing how some of the most iconic images of Mars that I regularly see in books and educational materials are composite images from the Viking orbiters taken in the late 70s. Incredible what we accomplished in the early days of interplanetary exploration.

todays episode of horrible outfit “ideas”

the EOB-2E Switch Board, the Deep Space Bombardment Force's mirror to the EC-135s. The crews of the 4th Deep Space Command Squadron could assume the National Spaceborne Command Post in the case authorities on Earth or Luna are lost.

A modernized stealthy Saab 35 Draken, with a lengthened fuselage, AESA radar and diverterless inlets. #art by Creditian Istani. www.artstation.com/artwork/ZG62BN

More spacecraft concepts need onboard machine shops

I found a truly advanced book today…

Nuclear Fusion Torchship valentine’s day card for all you aerospace and sci-fi nerds :D #ValentinesDay

FOR OBVIOUS REASONS, PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU ARE UP TO DATE ON YOUR VACCINATIONS NOW.

Two of them

Drew @nuclearpulseproto.bsky.social because why not

Got a CRT monitor recently :D It’s a Micron 700VX 17” that I picked up for 20 bucks!

X-33 but built like a hash brown #planeposting #space #avgeek Stickers of said hash brown www.redbubble.com/i/sticker/Ve...

M42 (Orion Nebula)! Did some post processing on my first light data to learn some Siril 32 10 second exposures, just light frames #astronomy #astrophotography

Finally achieved first light with my astrophotography setup! Of course I had to look at Orion first :). It’s all still far from perfect, I’ll have to adjust the back focus distance for the astrocam, but for a first try from just outside a major city, I’m happy!

Happy new year to all the lovely toasters out there!

Visited Voyager 1 in Elite Dangerous, took like 20 minutes to get there but the Voyager spacecraft are some of my favorite spacecraft of all time

This week on RttS: Talita is very excited to explain to you how the local megastructures work. Catch up: https://runawaytothestars.com Read ahead: https://patreon.com/jayrockin

Even just going up for the day to MFF on Saturday was an absolute blast! First time at a convention, brought my two lovely beans and I got to take home some lovely new friends. I was too distracted by everything going on to get good pictures. Looking forward to next convention, hope to have a suit!

Small insight into my silly music taste :3 Apple Music because it’s what my family already pays for :P

I may be going to an event this weekend :3
