Crazy space travel stuff

European space agency probe sends back surfacepictures of Titan, one of the moons of Jupiter. Also sound as it passes jupiters rings (!).

NASA rovers crawl around mars, taking pictures and sending back videos (!!) .

Fascinating stuff. Seeing the surface of other worlds makes my mind explode with the desire to run a RPG based on the exploration of them in the first stages of colonisation/terraforming.

If you're ever in an argument and Entropy winds up looking staid and temperate in comparison, it might be time to cut your losses and start a new thread about something else :)

I have wanted to go to Titan ever since reading Clarke's Imperial Earth back when I was in junior high.
All Saiyuki fans should check out Dazzle! Emotionally wrenching action-adventure and quirky humor! (At least read chapter 6 and tell me if you're not hooked.) Volume 10 out now!

Then you can find out, once and for all, whether he's really a vampire.
