William Navarro, an engineer attached to the project, signed on after being tormented by a newfound death salience. He’ll descend deep under the Nevada desert to find proof of an afterlife.

New short story out: "Test Site" in Literally Stories. Link below.
Ghost hunters often claim that spirits use electromagnetic energy to appear in our world. Operation Hierophant, a secret underground nuclear test, is designed to generate enough EM energy to punch through to the other side...
Big radar arrays or dishes always feel so alien to me, especially these big phased arrays, so it was fun to push it farther in that direction
Same. I think the radome edged out just slightly for me.
Thank you, and yep!

New story out on Monday. In the meantime, check out my most recent one.

An image of the sun. Coronal holes appear as the dark regions.
Here's a sampling of some of the data. The last one depicts a coronal hole, which is not actually a hole, but regions where the magnetic field lines don't reconnect back to the sun and instead point out into space. Skylab was the first spacecraft to study them.
Skylab in a strong solar glare.
The primary scientific instrument on Skylab was the Apollo Telescope Mount, a solar telescope with instruments that allowed Skylab to observe the sun in soft x-ray, ultraviolet, and visible light. It used film, and the astronauts had to conduct EVAs to switch out the cannisters.
Artemis II, new Boards of Canada on the horizon, The Faith of Beasts released... What an April!
Always down for more Jeffrey Combs

- Post-Dominion War series focusing on forging Alpha - Gamma Quadrant relations. Very little combat, just politics.
- Intentional Delta Quadrant expedition. Generations living on board a massive starship + support fleet.
I sort of assumed that the heat shield was essentially a mirror so that's how I've done the materials in my renders, but even still I never went this reflective. It's really cool to finally have a reference image.

Shout-out to the guy wearing a Turnstile t-shirt on the NASA Livestream.
As far as I know, this is the first time we've seen a pic of an ablative heat shield in space.
I literally went HOLY SHIT
Umbilical disconnect

I've always wondered what this looks like!
It's finally socially appropriate to talk a lot about things like TLI burns. Thanks Artemis!
No it wasn't ironic very fun! It's actually been very enjoyable!
