It’s funny if you call PayPal or visa lines and bring this up asking why they claim β€œadult illustrations” is against their regulations but betting on the death of kids is totally fine. They don’t have an answer.

In fact yall should call them at least once a day with this :)

Note: "Captain" is not a rank, but a title which exclusively refers to a ship's designated commander.

Modelling practice #2
Aiming to capture the big shapes, proportions and the idea of the subject.

Been loving some of these jet engines lately. Looking forward to make more of these!

A surreal suitcase built out of panels made from a retro technology that looks like floppy disks to me, but correct me in the comments if you can define them better. One panel is a blueprint and another is a paper printout, for variety.

Color image of Tethys taken by the narrow-angle camera. IR, green and UV frames were processed to more closely match true color. The view is still slightly exaggerated color.
Note the enormous (450 km diameter) impact structure named Odysseus. Also discernible is a grayish band running across the equator with slightly redder material to the south.

Taken on Dec 24, 2005 at a distance of 197 000 km and phase angle of 85 degrees.

This image of the southern Greenland town of Narsaq was taken during an Operation IceBridge flight on Apr. 26, 2018. Operation IceBridge, NASA's longest-running airborne mission to monitor polar ice change, concluded this year's springtime survey of Arctic sea and land ice on May 2. The flights, which began on March 22, covered the western basin of the Arctic Ocean and Greenlands fastest-changing glaciers.

I think this is almost the last preplanetary nebula in the Hubble archive. I'm not sure if I should be sad that there aren't that many or happy that this many had their pictures taken. They are elusive and marvelous.  I am definitely happy to live in a time when the HST exists. What kind of images will future telescopes look at? Will these amazing glimpses into our galaxy look feeble and inferior to some yet unborn stargazer? I love Hubble, but I do hope that its successors achieve this.

"But what about the medical thingy,
is it ok to just leave it there?"

"Oh yes of course!
It is just a temporary facility, we have them scattered around remote areas. It will recondense back into a hidden capsule when we leave and make itself look like a bunch of rocks or something, don't worry"
