Happy Sweet 16, ISS!

November 20th marked the launch anniversary of the first module of the International Space Station (ISS), Zarya. On that day in 1998 began the construction in space of this unique scientific and exploration outpost that enables researchers from all over the world to put their talents to work with innovative experiments that could not be done anywhere else.

We thank our partners from the United States, Russia, Europe and Japan for 16 years of outstanding collaboration. Here’s to many more!

Art dump part 4

okay story time

so my art teacher assigned us to do a chalk pastel still life of fruits n shit and I was like “no”

so I drew a banana instead.

and my teacher came by like “you need to have more than one fruit in your still life”

so I was like “k”

and so I put that cherry on top of the banana and titled it “Banana Split Without The Ice Cream Because Life Is Full Of Disappointments: By Fall Out Boy“ and I turned that shit in.

My art teacher just started laughing out loud in the middle of class

this is my new favorite thing

best title ever

[I know it wasn’t ever possible, but I’d have loved to see a crossover between DS9 and Voyager. Just the conversations and different points of view would be interesting. The juxtaposition between certain people and elements especially. Sisko, having a family with career opposite Janeway who chose a different path. Kira and Chakotay’s feelings on the Cardassians. B’Elanna and Worf’s different ways of being Klingon. Quark and Neelix, Tuvok and Odo, O’Brien and Harry, Jadzia and Seven…]

I take your crossover episode and raise you a movie complete with Changeling/Borg Alliance.

Changeling/Borg alliance.

Changeling. Borg. Alliance.

…that is an intriguing idea.

(Both creepy hive minds. It’s a safe bet neither of them can assimilate the other, so there isn’t that threat. The Borg can bring an order more complete than the Founders ever could. The Founders can teach them advanced genetic engineering to complement their inorganic technology, reshaping their drones’ organic parts as well as augmenting them.)

California Street, 6:50am

(San Francisco, October 2014)

So, is this some weird perspective shot, or a scene from Inception? Because there’s no way you could climb (let alone drive) up a hill of the angle that appears to be without using the grass as handholds, and they’ve paved over the grass.
