F2U just interact / like or reblog. Tag if you want to but itâs not necessary
There was a whole forest of concerns surrounding the question. Meantime, each day the child grew paler and purpler at once. The curer was first to declare her âsee-throughâ, and the union tied around to see it for themselves. One claimed they saw the grass through her arms, while others interpreted it as reading clear her pulse rhythm in her eyes.
âYouâre all voyeuristsâ, I said. âIf I were a mother, Iâd wish my child to be unbreakable, not see-through!â
âAnd youâd be selfishâ, II then responded. âIt only ever benefits the mother if a child knows no harm, for then she feels as though she didnât fail to protect it. But to each smaller being, pain is a proper guidebook on its way to turning a bigger beingâ.
âWe have no proof sheâs harmable at allâ, the curer paused them. âJust because of hollowness. She might be supple, for all we knowâ.
There was an idea that we shouldn't return. Every day, it generalised. "Look here", she said, directing my gaze into the portlight. "How beautiful it is. We're further into space than any human alive has ever been. It'll take us even longer to touch down now, and all we'll be seeing meanwhile is the same as what we've already seen, on our way here. Or we could keep forward, move even further. It's a one-way ticket we're not ready for, but, then, dying, we'll see something new. Something even more beautiful". It was necessary, but cruel, that she indulged in her dreaminess around me â the captain. That, of all the crew, she chose to make her dreams my dreams.
Turning heavenward.

The Artemis II crew naming two previously undiscovered lunar craters (one after Commander Reid Wiseman's late wife).
the artemis ii mission reminds me why i love humanity so much. they play pink pony club for the astronauts. they have issues with microsoft outlook. one of the astronauts named a moon crater after his late wife. a jar of nutella just flew by. they make 67 memes because theyâre big nerds with huge hearts who say that we look beautiful from there. they call dibs on sleeping arrangements and the mission specialist likes sleeping like a bat. the pilotâs daughter shows her dad off on her social media.
dunno just sometimes helps to think that we can do things like that.
Thanks @_ibatullin_ildar_.

Smart woman next to an unbelievable achievement is a picture niche that will never get old
Then youâre gonna love this photo of Annie Jump Canon.
Working at Harvard in the late 1800âs and early 1900âs as a âComputerâ, Annie Jump Cannon cataloged stars using their spectra from photographic plates, in an effort to understand the mysteries and peculiarities of stellar spectra.
This was hard, detailed, nuanced work. By 1889, three years into her work, she had classified over 1,000 stars. By 1913, she could classify 200 stars an hour. She could classify three stars a minute, just by sight. Using a magnifying glass, she could classify stars down to 9th magnitude, 16 times fainter than the human eye can see. And she did this all with exceptional accuracy.
Over the course of her career, she personally classified more than 350,000 stars, accounting for a mind-boggling 98% of all contemporary stellar spectra classifications, a feat that wouldnât be bested until the 1990âs with automated digital sky surveys.
Cannon used these classifications to develop the Harvard spectral classification system (OâBâAâFâGâKâM), organizing stars by surface temperature and physical properties.
It is hard to overstate just how foundational her work was to modern astronomy and astrophysics. Her classifications have enabled more than a century of breakthroughs in stellar structure and evolution, including the understanding of how stars change over time and how temperature, luminosity, and composition are related. The system underpins the HertzsprungâRussell (HR) diagram, one of the most important tools in astrophysics, and remains embedded in modern research, from stellar population studies to galaxy evolution.
The immense scale of her work was itself a massive contribution to astronomy. For comparison, before Cannon, star catalogs contained between 600 and 4,000 stars. Her work single-handedly proved that large-scale stellar classification was both feasible and scientifically valuable. She helped establish systematic star catalogs as a core method of modern astronomy and laid the groundwork for astrophysical research on stellar structure, evolution, and populations that continues today.

To me, the most eloquent character moment in the first book is Rake going full frenzy into beating down Genevieve and portraying it in such a heroic light, like heâs singlehandedly taking down the Empire and getting justice for Quark.
As of MWS, Genevieve is the youngest cast member, even younger than Evelyn (16) and Flora (supposedly also 16, since Evelyn is said to be âa girl [Floraâs] own ageâ). Genevieve is 15, but her age is presented in a way thatâs meant to make her look old enough (âShe was young, but not as young as she looked; she was told she could pass for twelve. But she was fifteenâŚâ). Given itâs Genevieveâs POV chapter, itâs natural to attribute this to her own perspective. She feels old enough to be a part of everything happening on Dove and in the agency forces of the Empire. Old enough to be on par with her mentoress. The true scale of irrelevance of her age is better presented in SSS, and itâs the biggest issue I have with the book. But, in MWS, the scene where sheâs truly treated like an adult is where Rake breaks free. He doesnât just knock her unconscious so she doesnât prevent his escape nor alert anyone, heâs lashing onto her for ever talking about Quark, that itâs better now that the Empire took over, and that itâs people like him who give Quark a bad image.
The fact that she looks like she could be 12 works against him here. If itâs assumed that he, too, could evaluate her as old as that, the situation therefore is him willingly assaulting a girl that old. A child more than a teen.
Whatâs so peculiar, is that, up until then, Rake was rather a morally positive character who had to commit morally negative actions to stay afloat. But his assault against Genevieve isnât like him watching Alfie get whipped (and Alfie was around 19 or 18 at the time, heâs presumably 2 to 3 years older than Flora), nor even attacking a child himself because he has to, to keep his ruthless image. This time heâs violent to a child because he wants to, because her words hurt him personally.
Granted, his story with the invasion of Quark is a violent one. Seeing your motherâs head on a pole and being forced into the life of crime as the only means of survival at 13 is devastating and unquestionably traumatising. And his distaste for Imperials isnât any news. But Genevieve isnât an imperial, and that much he tells her himself. Only he does it to hurt her further, itâs an insult, an addition to his physical assault. So far, Quark has always been his soft spot, and to imagine he doesnât just spare Genevieve for sharing the roots with him, but rather gets even more violent for this reason, is surprising.
He essentially gatekeeps Quark, so much so that he deprives Genevieve, a native of Quark as well, of her right to speak of her land just because she speaks of it in a way that he doesnât appreciate. âYou may kiss Imperial feet. You may take Imperial names. But you â donât speak of Quarkâ, he says. And right after that, he says sheâll never truly be one of the imperials. He leaves her identically naked, quite a nationalistic move â either you think like âweâ (I personally) think, or youâre not a Quark-girl at all, you donât belong. And this is not the case of Genevieve confusing her own identity and Rake simply pointing it out. Genevieve speaks of herself as a Quark girl. âPeople like you â you give us all a bad name. Youâre the reason people think weâre all thievesâ. She still identifies herself as a girl from Quark. She doesnât lie to herself about being Imperial, she acknowledges sheâs someone who can simply be accepted into Imperial nation if she tries hard enough. It does say âHow hard sheâd worked to distance herself from men just like himâ right there, but âmen like himâ are not men of Quark â theyâre âbadâ men of Quark, unfitting. But still those of Quark. Genevieve never denies Rake his identity, even admits that his performance of this identity is what casts a shadow on the entire Quark. But Rake, then, repeatedly prohibits her to speak of Quark, as if it wasnât her nation to speak of.
It all continues and worsens in SSS, with addition of Fist. And where Fistâs personal conflict was choosing the Resistance over her daughter, Rakeâs, I feel, is the same but on a grander scale: itâs choosing the idea of Quark over the people of Quark. He didnât care that a young girl from Quark viewed their history in such a brainwashed manner, he only cared that it opened the wound of his national trauma and the personal trauma it inevitably led to. She wasnât someone to save, because he denied her Quark identity, and, as such, he could freely see her as a national enemy, and not a personal one. Therefore he didnât have to tolerate her offense, there was no gray to her, just permitting black. And one of Rakeâs defining characteristics is being great at making believable excuses for his inexcusable actions. Â
Overall, the fact that heâs been so easily instigated to violence against a child of his own dearly beloved land by said child simply being spiteful accordingly to her age is such an incredibly brilliant character moment.
