This is my main blog where I shitpost a lot. Feel free to spam like & reblog whatever, I don’t care have fun. I have a queue so sorry if I reblog something of yours from many weeks ago. I try to tag every spacecraft mentioned! This may as well be a spacecraft gimmick blog lol. If you would like me to tag certain topics with a warning, please let me know. <18 you're fine to follow but I will tag the occasional rb as #suggestive and/or mature content.
Music/band sideblog: @graffitiplanet
More about me below the event horizon:
My interests are astronomy, spacecraft, computers, AI (fictional and real life), new media art, and sci-fi in general. I am an astrophysicist in real life 🤯 so feel free to ask me about science stuff, I love to yap!
Do not reupload or use my art for anything without my permission! I strictly forbid any AI model from using the contents of this blog in any way.

so grace is probably alarming to most eridians at first because he's a lanky wet alien with too few limbs, yes--but what if he ends up being terrifying in a sort of divine way instead of a repulsive one?
like. a creature that perceives the intangible? a creature that walks with thin permeable membranes bared to the air, whose blood contains elixir that can destroy pathogens without heat? a creature that is impossibly fragile yet resilient? a creature that breathes potently flammable gas to survive? a creature that is loud all over and speaks in a strange and frightening monotone, who thought it would die for you? who gave up its home in the heavens for you without meeting you first, whose first words to your people were probably something along the lines of We saved your star. It's gonna be okay. Don't be afraid.
Maybe I don’t need to make art fight references . They are nebulous concepts free for interpretation. Peace and love. (<- coping bcuz i don’t have the time)

Does anyone else ever have a sort of phantom physical sense when there's something ready to paste in the clipboard. It feels like I've got something in my right hand and when I click ctrl-v I put it down.
I have this book about the cosmos from 1988 ('91 for the polish translation) and it has a bunch of spacecraft included in it, and this evening i wanted to share them all with you.
Illustrated by Brian Delf and Luciano Corbella.
vvv (verylongpost my bad)
first up we have... curiously unnamed space telescope that is definitely not Hubble. Slightly different shape for the aperature cover door!
Ariane 3
Full two pages dedicated to shuttles! many tiny drawings. For some reason the book calls them "Kosmoplan" (cosmoplane). Please excuse the scribbles. this book was the property of a bunch of unruly kids, including me. They wont go away.
Intelsat 5 (big and small)
Various different spacecraft types, including IRAS, Landsat 5, NOAA-8 and Navstar 1
and a tiny molniya :)
What i assume is either Westar 6 or Palaba B-2 being retrieved. but honestly idk it could be some other bullshit.
Baby Mir! and Soyuz, naturally
Lunokhod 1/2! The crosshatching is particularly yummy here (astronauts that go to the moon are called "selenonauts" in here, which seems is a polish/slavic exclusive term?)
not spacecraft but heres a very lovely spread of a part of our solar system. Really good sense of scale here, with how you can barely even see the curvature of our sun
Speaking of the sun, here's the Solar Maximum Mission! thats the one they repaired on STS-41-C
next up, Mariner 10 and a Venera lander sharing a page
BEEAAAUTIFUL full page spread of a Viking lander
Pioneer 10/11, but ever so slightly implied 10 thru the text. Yippie! hi Tenny!
weirdly turquoise Voyager 1 and 2. Curious bit is how info about neptune couldve only been added with the translation, since it mentions the '89 flyby like its a thing that already happened.
Giotto... thats peepaw hell yea (And the only ESA probe in the book 🥹)(ig it was a different time)
Einstein Observatory (HEAO-2)
VLA!!! VLA!!! VLA!!!!!!!!!! GLEE!!! (also i really like how everything on this page is laid out im ngl. have i already mentioned this is a gorgeous book?)
...
aaand im at the image limit. theres a few more things i wanted to share, but ill do it some other (near!) time

Seeing backrooms fanart is making me laugh cause like. It looks so boring. This does not inspire me to watch the movie whatsoever it’s just fanart of the same fucking yellow room. I used to have a lot of fun making up backrooms lore in high school but idk this seems kind of trite. Maybe i’ll change my mind if I actually watch it
So, just out of curiosity a few years back I clicked on a headline for like an annual day of remembrance for tiannemen square, and it included a video so I wanted to see if they would play the full clip.
That clip stopped at the same point that the clip is always stopped when used in news stories, but the article linked a source about tiannemen square for further reading.
I clicked on that source, and it was very similar to the first article, roughly 2-3 short paragraphs of declarative statements, the same clip edited to cut off before it shows "tank man" climbing on top of the tank shortly before walking away unharmed, and another link to a source for further reading about the events at tiannemen square.
At that point I wanted to see if I would ever get through this chain of an attribution of an attribution down to any primary sources or even a single article that just showed the full, unedited clip at the very least.
Every link I clicked on had the same exact structure. It was an article from a major publication, they all featured either the singular famous still frame of Tank Man standing in front of the tank or they showed the edited clip that is cut before the clip shows him walking away safe and unharmed in order to imply that the tank ran him over, they all had a short summary of events and then the "source" provided if a reader wanted to verify the facts of the article was just another article repeating the same thing which linked to another article repeating the same thing which linked to... and so on and so on.
I probably went a few dozen links deep and never found a single article that used any primary source documents or historical analysis or investigative reports as a source for any of the claims made in the article. The only primary source to be found was the singular video that every article refused to show in full.
And to be clear, this isn't just some odd quirk of this specific event. This pattern is exactly how most modern propaganda makes its way into the public consciousness. When a claim or accusation is made and the source making the claim is of dubious veracity (such as when the US state department, intelligence agencies, and various affiliated NGOs make claims about states or groups that are targets of US aggression and intervention), then going through this process of publishing hundreds of articles that amount to little more substance than saying "BBC reported that NYT reported that The Sun reported that WaPo reported that The Guardian reported that an anonymous state department official said something happened" serves two purposes.
The first purpose that this process serves is that the original source that is of dubious or sometimes completely discredited veracity is now buried from scrutiny under and attribution of an attribution of an attribution of an attribution.
The second purpose this process serves is that it creates the appearance of academic, journalistic, and/or scholarly consensus even though this large volume of reporting ultimately traces back to a singular source.
Anyway, this is a fun and good practice that everyone should get into the habit of that totally isn't jokerfying in the slightest!
"what if they fucked" WRONG. what if they ruined each other's lives irreparably. what if there was nothing left but a smoldering heap. what if everything that brought them together twisted and corroded and ripped them apart. and then they fucked.

the internet is so awesome because it connects me to other autistic girls who have also spent a decade being really mad about people who cry and scream over Pluto not being classified as a planet anymore.
2. you don't even wanna learn about the other dwarf planets do you. you don't even care about any of this you just wanna be upset about the one thing you remember from the 4 week astronomy unit you had in science class when you were 13.
