Hey folks. Here's one of the animations I did showing an O'Neill Colony - basically a hollowed out cylinder in space. This one is 35km long and 9km across and spins once per minute (if I remember) to provide 1g gravity.

Please repost! Spread the love!

Made in #blender. #sciart #scifi

A safe place to store volatile or radioactive substances, away from the main body of the spacecraft?

This square design from Liana George has a pale cream-colored background. Several bars in pastel colors contain items in a list, with bullet-points that look like a heart in a circle. At the top it says, “WHY BOOK REVIEWS MATTER TO AUTHORS” The listed reasons are: “Insights as to who’s reading their books. Insights as to what they did well. Influences readers and potential buyers. Affects how people find their books. Morale booster.” Centered at the bottom it says, “lianageorge.com.”

It'd be amazing. You'd see the earth only as an orange ring, its atmosphere lit up by the sun.

Pharmacists who recommend homeopathy should be willing to accept as payment envelopes that once contained money.
