Poking at my art tablet for the first time in months to make some patches for VTOL VR

Look at this commission I got by the wonderful @theroguez.bsky.social! :3

Dammit, I'm so sorry 😞

Only thing is it should be hand not shoulder. The history of where we get some star names was one of my favorite tangents when I did astro outreach. Another weird one is al nasr al waqi' (the falling eagle) where somehow only the adjective stayed and went from waqi' to Vega.

There is an episode of Behind the Bastards with the @knowledgefight.bsky.social hosts where one of them does an impression of Alex Jones saying, "I can't count that high!" Sometimes when I'm required to do math in my head, I will just blurt that out lol

I'll take one!

Yeah I used to have the original Saturn and the upgrade was such a huge improvement. I do use chitubox (sending prints over wifi is so nice) but I rarely print things tall enough to activate the time lapse, so I haven't really messed with it yet. It's all in boxes until I move anyway.

Nice! The S4 Ultra is such a good printer. I've had a great time with mine. Still need to figure out that time lapse function, though.

Incredible lol

Got damn

A high-resolution color image of Mars with the small, dark, potato shaped satellite Phobos, seen in sharp contrast as it passes over the massive volcano Olympus Mons. Phobos appears irregular and shadowed against the softly rust colored Martian surface. In the distance, two other volcanic features Ascraeus Mons (upper right) and the flatter Alba Mons (upper left) are visible. Wisps of light clouds and the blackness of space frame the planet’s curved horizon.

I got the job! So hopefully soon I can find a place and start moving over to the city of weird :3

Peach and both blues lol

I still have no idea why the US hasn't done something comparable in Cascadia and at least eastern Alaska yet.

There's perpetually talk and plans and tests, but very few instruments actually installed.

Personally, I view it as a major crisis in scientific integrity that a racist blogger can maintain access to a dataset of minors involved in a study to understand health and disease so he can do whatever harebrained pseudoscience he wants to show Black people are biologically inferior

Cool cool, I'm sure getting that going will be a priority 🙃

This is exactly what the internet is for.

Yep!

It is simultaneously extremely exciting and - for worldbuilding purposes -slightly annoying that we're right up at the point where we can plausibly start definitively answering the question of "what planets orbit Alpha Centauri A and B?" Real Soon Now...

huh, I never thought about canine film stars having makeup applied before

Very nice yote-mobile!
