Caught another ice halo display the other day. Nowhere near as good as the pyramidal crystal display here last summer, but this is probably the best so far this year.

Agree! Space Engine is much more interesting and qualitative than Celestia origin Moreover the forum of Space Engine is far better and pleasant to use than Celestia forum I found. 

I can recommend to read The Mars Trilogy by Kim Stanley Robinson about colonization, terraforming and long-term results of that. It is what space concerned. I can't tell the exact amount of books I read in my life as I love to read and at university I studied literature 

With knowledge human has now - it is hard to believe that we can see signs of alien technologies somewhere near us :? If they are - I think they are just out of reach for the present.
What about other news: mostly we hear news from NASA and ESA, but I want to share with you UK aerospace news . They ...

I also watched The 100 and of course I can list a lot of stupid things there but still it has so many drawbacks that they turn into advantages. The fantasy of the writers is limitless, what will happen in the next five minutes is almost impossible to predict. The series has a high dynamic: when the ...

Games I played recently: The Witcher 3, Fallout 4, Detrot: Become Human. What I like in these games most: choices you make affect the course of game. Especially in Detroit. Also I am not great fighter or shooter so I played at minimal difficulty. I enjoy the plot more than battles.

Can someone ...

Let me join this game :) at first I thought that I won't be able to guess any of that, but then I recognized Pluto as it is the smallest one here. Then Mars and Moon. But after that I started to get confused so I checked the spoiler to find out the truth;) Anyway I liked such kind of entertainment ...

Alex, that is outstanding journey! I will definetely check all your videos, I have already started watching it! Now I know what I will do in my spare time  Also there is pleasant, relaxing music, exactly what I prefer to listen after stressful day. 

I am interested since 4th grade, my father gave me encyclopedia about space exploration, starts, planets and everything connected with it. I was amazed by the articles and pictures there so much that I took that book everywhere despite it was heavy. Also I visited planetarium and that was ...

Yes and I was pleasantly surprised to see that Space Engine is very similar to this view. I charted a 12 hour trip to the center of the galaxy from Earth and made a video about that and it looks very much like this!
I would love to watch your video if it possible? 12 hours isn't too short? :P ...

The center of our galaxy newly imaged by NASA-- this is where all the action is ;)
