I wonder how they're gonna make the sex ghost part of the Crusher figure. Is it going to be glow-in-the-dark or something?

A goal I agree wholeheartedly with.

A nuclear war would destroy human civilization and pollute the planet for centuries to come.

Beta Starship Spotlight
Frigates of Ian Keldon

Mr. Keldon has a ton of fun kitbashes I've enjoyed browsing; tonight I picked four of his smaller Miranda-style starships to examine.

I love the Abbe torpedo pod included on Stemmonds and "Avenger" is a fun reference.

LBN 437 The Gecko Nebula captured from my dark site in southern France last month 🇫🇷 😊🔭

It was shot on the EdgeHD 8 with Hyperstar for a total integration time of 8 hours in OSC and Mono. The red nebulosity was enhanced with Ha data.

#Astrophotography

@kat-astro-bot.bsky.social‬ what do you see?
The Gecko Nebula LBN 437 is a dark nebula embedded in the red emission nebula SH2-126. It lies at a distance of about 1.200 light years from Earth in the constellation of Lacerta. Its shape resembles a Gecko hence the name 🦎

From one iconic design to another: Tron (1982) & Akira (1988)

Director and writer Katsuhiro Ōtomo: “In terms of Kaneda's bike in Akira, the initial inspiration was the lightcycles from Tron designed by Syd Mead. However, they are wide, so I halved them and used that as an initial basis.”

Do we really want 250,000 mirrored satellites in Low Earth Orbit? Hasn't the Starlink megaconstellation already done enough damage?
🧪 @mjibrown.bsky.social
A US startup plans to deliver ‘sunlight on demand’ after dark. Can it work – and would we want it to?
Satellites beaming sunlight down to Earth sound like science fiction – and they have astronomers very worried.

Phlox's Film Fest of Frights

Now Showing: Jennifer's Body (2009)

#StarTrek #StarTrekMemes #StarTrekEnterprise
Top left: It's movie night, and the Enterprise crew are gathered in the mess hall to watch Jennifer's Body (2009). On the screen is a scene depicting Jennifer in the woods. She is nude, her dark hair falling in front of her nipples. Top right: Phlox is sitting in the audience with a bowl of popcorn. With a wide smile on his face, he says, "Ah! The timeless art of seduction! And what one of us here would not easily fall prey to just the right temptation, hmm?" Bottom left: T'Pol, seated in front of Phlox, turns to look at him and says, "Doctor, do you need us to pause the movie so you can go purge your gametes?" Bottom right: Taken aback, Phlox looks back at her after a beat and says, "...No, I'll do the polite thing and wait, thank you."

Record high temperatures are currently being set across the northernmost portions of the #Arctic. In fact, it is effectively ice-free on the Atlantic side of the Arctic all the way up to about 85°N latitude! This includes record low sea ice around Svalbard.

Line graph time series of 2025's daily 2-m temperature in the Arctic compared to each year from 1958 through 2024. There is a long-term warming trend for every day of the year. There is also large interannual variability and a clear seasonal cycle.

Mighty Odysseus - From NASA Marshall Space Flight Center - https://flic.kr/p/287mecr
The most visually striking feature on Saturn’s icy moon Tethys is Odysseus crater. An enormous impact created the crater, which is about 280 miles (450 kilometers) across, with its ring of steep cliffs and the mountains that rise at its center. Odysseus is on the leading hemisphere of Tethys (1,071 kilometers, or 665 miles across). In this image, north on Tethys is up. This view is a composite of several images taken in visible light with the Cassini spacecraft narrow-angle camera on Aug. 17, 2015, at a distance of about 28,000 miles (44,500 kilometers) from Tethys. The Cassini spacecraft ended its mission on Sept. 15, 2017. Image credit: NASA/JPL-Caltech/Space Science Institute Read More Read more about Cassini NASA Media Usage Guidelines

My daughter has a school assignment to write a scary story in just a few lines, and I showed her this from Clickhole, which is some of the most efficient horror scripting I've ever read.
Clickhole headline: "Incredible! We Asked These Astronauts What It's Like to Be In Space" Astronaut Barry Wilmore, pictured in an orange spacesuit, says "“You never know true beauty until you see Earth from space, or true terror until you hear someone knocking on the space station door from outside. You look through the porthole and see an astronaut, but all your crew is inside and accounted for. You use the comm to ask who it is and he says he’s Ramirez returning from a repair mission, but Ramirez is sitting right next to you in the command module and he’s just as confused as you are. When you tell the guy this over the radio he starts banging on the door louder and harder, begging you to let him in, saying he’s the real Ramirez. Meanwhile, the Ramirez inside with you is pleading to keep the airlock shut. It really puts life on Earth into perspective.”
