Interstellar space ship build to serve as main store for DNA / Signatures product lines, as well as a setting for sci-fi role play.
via Instagram ift.tt/2py9VmG Our “no gifts Christmas” still managed to include a few. My mom went space case and got me this solar system necklace and a matching solar system bath bomb set (!!!). . . . #tistheseason #gifting #solarsystem #necklace #space #interstellar #nerd #nerdjewelry

It’s all about Time!
It’s time I finally cruised on in with my own recolour of the Interstellar space ship designed by @aaronbrickdesigner
Inspired to join in on the fun by @lego.joey @fleebnork @fazoom7 @mbgilliam45 @danishspaceprogram @troublesbricking @angusmaclane and many more!
TimeCruisers is one of my top 5 fave themes. Not only because I grew up reading the comics. But the action and sense of adventure in the sets them selves led my childhood into many worlds of imagination. Also the absolute ridiculousness of parts used to make their wacky contraptions was hilariously fun!

This is the second interstellar comet ever discovered (the first one was Borisov; the very first interstellar object discovered - Oumuamua - wasn't a comet). It was discovered on July 1, 2025. The comet in this image is extremely faint (magnitude around 17.5), and also moving quite fast in the sky, so it was very challenging to make this photo. I photographed the comet 17 days after its discovery, from my light polluted backyard in Hamilton, Ontario. I took 90 images using 1-minute exposure through my 8-inch Ritchey–Chrétien telescope, with SvBony SV705C camera. The processing was done using the free software ASTAP.
The comet is still on it's way to the closest to the Sun point (will reach it on October 29), but it's no longer visible in the northern hemisphere.

Morrison on the origins of the paper he co-wrote with Giuseppe Cocconi, “Searching for Interstellar Communications”:
“Well, gamma ray astronomy arose out of the fact that Bob Wilson at Cornell was building a good, nice new electron synchrotron with which he was able to make high-energy gamma rays. And so they were all the talk, and we tried to calculate how far they would go and so on. And Cocconi came to me one day — I’ve often reported this — and said, ‘You know what, Phil? If there are people out there, won’t they communicate with gamma rays that'll cross the whole galaxy?’ And I said, ‘Gee, I know nothing about that. They will cross the galaxy. It’s very thin in hydrogen. But not all that well. There will be some loss.’ ‘What about radio?’ he said. ‘I don’t know much about radio, but I understand there is a lot of radio out there. Why not use radio? It’s much cheaper. You get many more photons per watt and that must be what counts.’ And we began working on that and pretty soon we knew enough about radio astronomy to publish a paper called, as you say — ‘Searching for Interstellar Communications,’ yes. Which of course is not yet SETI, but it's a much better name. SETI has always made me unhappy because it somehow denigrates the situation. It wasn’t the intelligence we could detect; it was the communications we could detect. Yes, they imply intelligence, but that's so evident that it’s better to talk about getting signals from them, not just telepathy, you know, that sort of argument.”
