That bloody mad, gorgeous, infuriating scarf still haunts my dreams. I have resigned myself to my fate, that I will be in a quest for the perfect chenille for the rest of my days…

“Don’t congratulate yourself too much, or berate yourself either. Your choices are all half chance. So are everyone else’s” -Everybody’s Free (to Wear Sunscreen) On a separate note, that book cover makes my brain hurt!

The classics: “Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.” Doctor Who: …

"Graphic media" apparently. It seems that 1970s "Doctor Who" is too scary for Bluesky...

A sci-fi/fantasy book shop, in which the sci-fi and fantasy are clearly separated, and the books are correctly sorted by author and then in order of publication (except where that would break up a series, naturally). As the premise is I can afford to lose money, I’d run it like Bernard Black.

11 years ago I've started working on Kronos 1, and to this day it is still one of my fav designs. Time to bring it back, and update it a bit, using that additional 10+ years of my experience. Originally modelled in Modo, now it lives in Blender, with a ton of new details.

Exeter! One of these days I’ll finish this Wing Commander project…

Happy Earth Day! 🌎 🌍 🌏 To mark this special day, we’re tuning in to Sen, the world’s first continuous 4K video livestream from space. Sen’s cameras are hosted on our Columbus module of the ISS, with data delivered via the Airbus platform. Watch Earth from above, just like an astronaut 📹 Sen

If you want to laugh at my #1 starship hangup, this is what bothers me more than perhaps anything else in modern Trek: Dark, grungy hulls! To me the refit struck the perfect balance of realism and utopian minimalism and nearly every other ship since has taken us further from the light of god. 😅

Process of the Artemis II Earthset Plate Thanks for following this body of work, it was an inspiring project for me! #sciart

Here's a version with closer to correct true apparent size. Note that Io is the same apparent size as the Moon from Earth.

I love the composition and colour in this one. Plus the explorer ship is a great design!

Commission for @zinzrinz.bsky.social of all of Jupiter's Moons, as seen from the cloud tops, with the correct relative apparent sizes for each of the Galilean moons and the inner four asteroid moons.

The new Soviet Space Substack is out! graphicsnickstevens.substack.com/p/new-photos... Covering the recently released N1-L3 1M1 photos. In this case with the text from the source document, plus the usual cool image, cool link, and special download.

@phillimess.bsky.social had this toy as a kid! We had no idea what it was, given it didn’t feature in the films at all.

Skylab, the first US space station.

Space Stations ! Science labs, listening posts, last best hopes for peace or simply waystations out in the dark. It's no secret that Babylon 5 was my gateway into using #Lightwave3d so I have a soft spot for space stations. #Scifi #ScifiArt

BREAKING NEWS In response to the Trade Federation's blockade of Naboo, the Republic announces a blockade of Naboo.

"They're dead, and everyone, including them, knows it." Another ship from Star Cops, this time the interplanetary cargo ship "Daedales", as featured in the episode Conversations with the Dead".

Space Trucks! The idea of plying the space lanes fascinates me, tramp steamers making a living on the rim. Connecting people and places. #Lightwave3D #Scifi #ScifiArt

Because I recently learned I have some more Belgariad fans amongst my followers I thought I'd reshare this. yes I painted Gina Torres as the model for my version of Polgara. What of it? lol.

Alternate moon missions 🌙

A quick piece to honor Artemis II mission going around the Moon. So inspiring to see it actually happening! Blender, Photoshop, 2026. #noAI

19/ Jesus Christ how am I still barely half way through this? What day is it? Where am I? Send help.

Whoa 🤯 The Moon, in full eclipse, with the #Artemis II Orion spacecraft. Part of the Moon and spacecraft are lit by Earthshine, and both Saturn and Mars are visible to the lower right. Incredible. Details: images.nasa.gov/details/art0...

I was curious what a view of Earth matching the Artemis II pic would look like from a conventional weather satellite. Here’s a thermal infrared (heat) image from directly above the Prime Meridian at 00:30 April 3rd from @eumetsat.int (MTI1) rotated to match as closely as possible. 🚀🌍🌔

A HD remaster of Ulysses 31 (1982) is coming today on a French network!! 🤩

The whole world will be your enemy, prince with a thousand enemies. And when they catch you, they will smash you with a hammer. But first they must catch you.

My cousin just sent me this and the laugh rule IS sacred, even if it's from the other blue hellsite (no not that one the OTHER other one)

Fell back in love with one of the great, this-is-how-to-do-it cover versions. When the guitar hits! youtu.be/TxrwImCJCqk?...

Skylab B launches atop the Shuttle-C, the cargo-optimized variant of the Space Shuttle. This is from AEdwardBaker's alternative history where the Shuttle program was more... sensible. #art www.deviantart.com/aedwardbaker...

After Skylab, NASA still had surplus Apollo hardware laying around, so they started work on a second Skylab station, Skylab B. This station would have been an international project, with Soviet crews visiting using the Soyuz. Ultimately, it was canceled. The docked spacecraft here is a Soyuz 7K-T.

Looking forward to reading this. The story of Britain's spaceplanes by "SpaceFlight" Editor Rob Coppinger, published by the British Interplanetary Society this year. A full review to come in "Odyssey."

To help us celebrate our 40th year, the city of Darmstadt will be showcasing our satellite models in their shop for the remainder of the year 🛰️ Darmstadt is known as a 'city of science' (Wissenschaftsstadt), home to institutions like EUMETSAT & ESA. If you're in town go take a look! bit.ly/4bInL9x

1 year. 1 planet. Seen entirely from space.🛰️ This #WorldMetDay we're releasing our Year of Weather 2025 – every major storm captured by satellites spanning the globe.🌍 Satellites include our own Meteosat fleet (developed by @esa.int), alongside @noaa.gov, CMA & JMA. 🎬 Full video: bit.ly/4rUnTJj

We enter spring with a moment of balance. 🌱🌍 Today the Sun crosses Earth’s equator, bringing day and night into almost equal measure worldwide: longer days ahead in the Northern Hemisphere, while autumn begins in the Southern Hemisphere. 📹 : One year of Earth from 36,000km in space!
