A habitable world in the L4 point of a warm Jovian planet would have a great sky, I think. You'd have the planet's own moon - plausibly a few of them even... and then in the evening skies every night you'd see a banded tawny disk, something like half the size of the full Moon.

This is a waterproof-covered book which has lost its colour by much contact with water. It is full of investigative drawings and exploratory text written on many different thicknesses of paper.

ohhhhh the piano beta of Hammer Of Justice in the deltarune newsletter... really good

This is the silhouette of 1,122-km-wide Dione in front of Saturn—a view captured with Cassini 15 years ago on December 20, 2010. Synthesized color from a single clear-filter greyscale image.

Semi related but all four of the HOPE main designs fill me with a sense of whimsy. Very scrungly little guys, all of them

a kilosecond actually is like the perfect amount of time to take a nap for

lately been thinking it would be fun if in The Long View a common building material was a synbio wood that uses aramids instead of cellulose in its cellular structure. really high tensile strength (it's basically foamed kevlar!) and has an ignition temperature ~2x that of natural cellulose wood.

the Marshall SFC z-pinch ship design is also very fun I think, it's endearing how it's a sort of 2010s tech caveman fusion rocket with a gain barely into the double digits... cutting those massive sixty-tonne capacitor banks down to size with SMES batteries would do wonders for the mass ratio alone

I might be biased, but today the South Polar Cap of Mars looks a lot like Scotland to me 😂 Full size image & info: flic.kr/p/2oqrPg1 🔭🧪 Credit: ESA/DLR/FUBerlin/AndreaLuck ESA Mars Express HRSC 2015-04-09

The VABN-P/C, a ballistic rocket+ramjet worked design for SSTO spacelift on Titan - Saturn's largest moon - that I commissioned off of @attritionmaxxer.bsky.social. 42 tonnes/128pax(economy) to Low Titan Orbit, with a klick a second of delta-v to spare.

an animatic of the Kasei Vallis jailbreak chapter in Green Mars set to "Escape From Midwich Valley" would kind of go hard I think.

reminded of one of my favorite bits of exposition in A Deepness In The Sky here

Gemini VII (left) and Gemini VI spacecraft meet up once again, this time at Mayport Naval Station, Florida after unloading Dec. 20, 1965, from the USS Wasp. The two spacecraft accomplished a rendezvous and station keeping exercise in space on December 15 contactlight.de

As my Day 7 (Diagram) entry, here is an infographic version describing the components and steps.

For #toughtober Day 8 (Plasma) I made an animation illustrating how a Q-drive works. Annotated diagram to come later. Once again entirely nondestructive #scifi #space #art thanks to #blender3d #geometrynodes

I have been neglecting Uranus system for a long time now. So I decided to change that. Here's Uranus and Miranda visible above the canyons of Ariel. #SciArt #spaceart #astronomy #solarsystem #Uranus
