My entry to the Interstellar Outpost Contest.
Knor Industries, well known for their military and civilian vehicles, are now offering an Outpost Bundle that includes:
the Knor RW starfighter, which with its rotating wings can land or take off on a dime; the Knor TX tanker truck, famous for its off road capabilities; the Knor SI comm station, equipped with the latest in communication technology; and the Knor RW landing pad that doubles as a storage area for the outpost. Take advantage of this great Bundle deal while you can!
The starfighter's wings rotate with a twist of the knob on top, to switch between flight and hover/landing mode; it also has a functional landing gear. The tanker truck has working steering (also operated by the knob on top) and 'suspension'. The comm station has a full interior and the landing pad doubles as a storage area.

Gave my tech three choices, including this one we used not too long ago. "Well, you know what I'm going to pick!" she said. I guess I do now.
Reimagining of my new favorite LEGO spaceship, the City Space Interstellar Spaceship set 60430. This reskin features several custom cut stickers and the rear is sculpted to fit the 2025 Renegade cross section and connection standard for modularity!
August 17th, 2015. Piha, NZ. First time I have ever seen the Milky Way and by no means the last. I took my test shot to where I thought it would be... when it wasn't there... panning upwards I saw the true beauty of it all. Took my breath away.
To me it was a timely reminder of where we all belong and where we've all come from. We are a very small stage in a vast cosmic arena.
An abstract view of deep space. The only thing done to photo here was add a black colour control point. I dragged it around to different colours on the screen until I got a pleasing result. Not the way it is supposed to be used.
The Black, white and Neutral control points are great tools of CaptureNX that enable you, with the aid of a Histogram, to find the darkest, lightest or neutral points in an image.

Now that Emerald City Comic Con is behind us, TARS and I got to spend some quality time together. And you know what? Turns out he's a massive tool - literally!
These illustrations were scanned from "Spacecraft 2000-2100 A.D." by Stewart Cowley. I picked up the book from the Houston Public Library Book Sale. It is part of the Terran Trade Authority Handbook series, which wikipedia says is a set of books published in the late 70s about made up space worlds. Illustrations were provided by J.S. Artists, Ltd.
Here's a sneak peek from one of the scenes. Now that the secret project is ...not secret anymore, I'll be posting pics as we work through the trailer! Stay tuned!

The NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope observed interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS on 6 August 2025 using its Near-Infrared Spectrograph. The research team is analysing Webb’s data, with a preprint now available online. Webb is one of several space telescopes studying this comet, helping to reveal its size, physical properties, and chemical composition. For example, the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope and NASA’s recently launched SPHEREx mission have also observed it. While the comet poses no threat to Earth, such observations support astronomers in their ongoing mission to find, track, and better understand objects in our Solar System.
[Image description: Three-panel infrared image of comet 3I/ATLAS taken by JWST on August 6, 2025. The left panel shows the overall IR image with a bright white core fading to red, orange, and blue. The center and right panels show flux maps highlighting CO₂ at 4.3μm and H₂O at 2.7μm, respectively, with insets showing spectral line profiles confirming molecular signatures.]

Thank goodness my angel has wings. She managed to take us to the stars.

Definitely worth checking out.
This interstellar canine is formed of cosmic dust and gas interacting with the energetic light and winds from hot young stars. The shape, visual texture, and color, combine to give the region the popular name Fox Fur Nebula. The characteristic blue glow on the left is dust reflecting light from the bright star S Mon, the bright star just below the top edge of the featured image. Textured red and black areas are a combination of the cosmic dust and reddish emission from ionized hydrogen gas. S Mon is part of a young open cluster of stars, NGC 2264, located about 2,500 light years away toward the constellation of the Unicorn (Monoceros). via NASA ift.tt/1RRhE5q
This image of interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS was taken on 18 February 2026 with the FORS2 instrument on ESO’s Very Large Telescope (VLT). It is a stack of several images spanning 13 minutes. As the comet moves on the sky, the stars appear as trails in the background.

What does it say when your hairdresser texts you wanting to know the color on your toes? It's OPI DS Radiance, with ILNP Interstellar on the fingers; I actually did a decent job on those on my own.
This frame from Suvarnabhumi Airport looks very spaceship-ish.
