- Those Were The Days May 17, 2013Yesterday a friend of mine mentioned that she had gone into a store that was playing the song “Those Were The Days” by Mary Hopkin, and that the song had become lodged in her head. Because this is what one does, I looked up the song on Wikipedia. Of all the factoids the article has, […]
- Lunar Impact May 17, 2013Bright Explosion on the Moon On May 17 a small rock hit Mare Imbrium and was detected visually. At ~40 kg and 56,000 miles per hour, the impact energy was about 5 tons TNT equivalent, and would have been visible to the naked eye. I suspect that a similar impact on Earth would have been […]

A little while in the Senate following a basically contest-free election, following a little while in the Illinois senate, characterized by voting “present” a lot, followed by no […]
- Vellum cyanotype blueprint prototypes May 15, 2013I’ve made many test runs and made considerable progress. I’ve also run out of supplies and need to improve the mechanical infrastructure. so I’ve decided to sell the “prototypes” I’ve made. These are indeed prototypes, and more to the point they are prototypes of art, so they are imperfect and variable… but they’re nevertheless pretty […]
- Phase B Shuttle Configurations May 15, 2013A collection of designs produced for alternate space shuttle configurations. This was the last gasp for configurations substantially different from what actually got built…. the second design from the far right became the baseline layout. But even with a recognizable orbiter and external tank, considerable variation was possible in overall launch vehicle lay […]
