A ๐งต on science fiction and my life: Science fiction has always been a huge part of my life, and is very much part of the reason why I became an aerospace engineer. I'm old enough that I saw reruns of Flash Gordon and My Favorite Martian as a child. But those were shows my parents watched.

Venus and Jupiter just above the tree line on our property. Venus is the brighter planet. In this case, it turns out being closer outweighs being larger. ๐ญ

I really enjoy my Pathfinder-class ship, which is my first genuine science build in Star Trek: Online. I've named it the U.S.S. Sievert, after Swedish medical physicist Rolf Sievert. The SI unit sievert (Sv) is named after him. It is used in dosimetry to measure exposure to ionizing radiation.

MTG mail day nine years ago. I paid $225 for it in 2017 ($305 in 2026 dollars). It's worth between $1,360 and $1,600 today, depending on whether you rate it as LP or NM. But I've never bought cards as investments: I play it in Commander.

I like listening to covers, especially if they are truly transformative. Unfortunately, many of my favorite covers are not available on Spotify. They're only on YouTube. If I had to pick my three favorite covers, they would be: 3. "Wicked Game" by London Calling:
