Space: The Final Frontier. Exploring space developments and theorizing about how humans fit into the universe.

We need a distraction!
"We screwed up and made the Internet shoot out. Everyone is clicking on their smartphones with no connection, not even data! We messed up! Please help us create an interesting distraction! We need people to say this happened because of aliens or whatever!" Sharren Cruiser of space engineering has contacted Martie Weethers a marine biologist for ideas.

Rocket City Moon Kitty
Rocket City, a place with plenty of space... Outer space. The actual amount of space here may be a bit squishy with the population growth. An aerospace NASA town where the main college takes that major so seriously, many who started with that engineering had to swap to another type. At Big Spring Park everyone gathers for the rocket launching competition. Cute small rockets line up ready for the go.

Static Ovah the Kennebec
Linda always said Bowdoinham mornings looked like God forgot to turn the brightness up. Fog rolled in thick and low, swallowing the rivah, the trees, and half the Town Landing like it was tryin’ to erase the place one bite at a time. She stood theyah at 7:12 AM, sippin’ coffee that tasted like burnt driftwood and bad decisions, watchin’ the Kennebec breathe like some big creature sleepin’ under the surface.

Flying Cars are the new Ubers
When I was younger, I remember watching the Jetsons and thinking how wild it was that the characters could call each other through the TV and drive flying cars. What's even crazier is that I never imagined being able to see these innovations in our lifetime, but somehow we've rapidly adapted technology to match our Sci Fi shows and movies. Our current generations have literally watched the progression of video calls develop from FaceTime to Zoom, to the point where video calling became pervasive around the world. And now, new eVTOL, or flying car manufacturers are popping up each month.

The Truth About Data Centers
Every time we send a message, stream a movie, ask an AI assistant a question, upload a photo, or buy something online, there is a good chance a data center is involved. Yet these enormous facilities are mostly invisible to us. They sit behind the scenes, quietly processing, storing, and moving the information that powers modern life.

Time Travel Is Possible
Time travel is one of those topics that can be a headache. If we could time travel, wouldn't we already know? We would have had people from the future visit us by now. Additionally, many different movies explain time travel very differently.

Is Dark Energy Just an Optical Illusion? How 1,590 Supernovae Point to a Superfluid Universe
For decades, cosmology has rested on a dramatic foundation: the universe was born 13.8 billion years ago in a Big Bang and has been expanding ever since. In 1998, when astronomers looked at distant Type Ia supernovae and found them dimmer than expected, the standard model added an even wilder twist: the expansion isn't just happening, it is accelerating.

Artemis IV as a Test of a New Biological Hypothesis: Does Earth’s Rotation Govern the Structural Stability of Life?
Introduction: Artemis as a Natural Planetary Experiment Preparations for NASA’s Artemis program are bringing space biology to a fundamental crossroad. Standard space medicine models evaluate human physiological risks almost exclusively through two known parameters: cumulative ionizing radiation doses and microgravity-induced mechanical unloading.

Flash Gordon . Top Story - August 2026.
Director Mike Hodges’ Flash Gordon (written by Lorenzo Semple Jr.) is a straight cult, camp romp through the four-color, cliffhanger world created by Alex Raymond in the "Flash Gordon" newspaper strips so many decades ago, in a completely different world. Buster Crabbe brought the comic-book hero—a football hero turned swashbuckling pulp outer-space warrior—to serialized life in old 1940s chapter plays, wielding a sword and a two-fisted, can-do, all-American fighting spirit alongside Dale Arden and Dr. Zarkov, and against giant reptiles bluescreened against desert backgrounds, where shoebox rocket ships on fishing line with sparklers in their tails set down to do battle with the forces of the Mephistophelian menace Ming the Merciless, who vaguely resembles Anton LaVey. Which, on the whole, makes perfect sense.

Catspaw
"Catspaw" is all sorts of First-Generation TOS badassery, and who could argue otherwise? It is penned by none other than Robert Bloch, who, when not penning episodes of classic "Thriller" with Boris Karloff, was also creating and documenting the dress-wearing doings of a certain California taxidermist with an old, Victorian manse and a mommy fixation—for that other Great Ghoul, Alfred Hitchcock.
