All over the internet recently, sciFy vs. reality and a Mars satellite for petty cash:
That breaks the monopoly. Faced with the spectre of other nations publishing uncensored Mars images, NASA and JPL have started publishing some much more obvious images than they have in the past including a totally uncensored video (JPL) showing large-scale structure.
A few items...

This is why God created duct-tape.
Stomething like noraparia? That's the sudden, inexplicable feeling that nobody's watching you, nobody's plotting against you, and nobody's talking about you behind your back.
It's REALLY a wierd feeling.
And you still climbed into the thing! :)
Can Remember my first flight....KC 135.
It was a weired childhood.
I have often wondered if Dionne Warwick were starting her career today if she’d have sung:
What the world needs now
Is ammo, sweet ammo.
I know the scansion is off, but it sure seems right for the 21st century.
Oh, yeah, I climbed in.
I have wanted to be a pilot since I was 6. I’m not telling how long ago that was, but people were just starting to hear about a group called The Beatles.
Anyway, had I not started getting migraines, I would have aimed for the heaviest thing they put in the sky.
Size does matter.
“Size”
The B52 has always had that ‘factor’.
I’d have happily flown a Buff, although often the lowest-ranked UPT students went off to Buff school.
I was aiming for the C-5 Galaxy if only because it apparently broke down in some of the most exotic places in the world.
Wait!
It’s not that simple!
I kinda wander around at odd intervals.
Often.
Usually while just reading along.
It is random chance, really!
;-)
Um.. well.
Yes?
But I’m not scary!
Not really.
Well, maybe a little under certain circumstances.
Yeah, rather odd that.
It had pitot sensor issues in some rather odd locales.
Must have been the humidity.
Two classmates from UPT went off to their different assignments. One was going to fly the “brand new” F-15 and the other was assigned to the new KC-10 tanker. After their graduate training was complete they actually ran into each other in a refueling training mission over the desert of Nevada. They talked over the radio a bit about their days in UPT and the F-15 pilot finally asked, “Want to see what these babies can do?”
The tanker driver said, “Sure.” So the F-15 pulled ahead and did a series of aerial maneuvers that would cost the lunch and a good chunk of breakfast of anyone not inured to the life of a fighter pilot. After he’d dropped back into formation the tanker driver said, “That was cool. But when we’re done with this refueling mission drop back about a half-mile and I’ll show you what THIS plane can do.
His curiosity piqued, the fighter jock ordered his wing to throttle back and then radioed, “We’re in position. Show us what you can do.”
After about 10 minutes of straight and level flight the tanker driver came on the radio and said, “Well, what do you think?”
The fighter pilot asked, “What did you do?”
Oh, I got up and took a pi$$, then walked back to the boom operator to get his take on how well your flight did in refueling, then jogged around the cargo area a couple of times before grabbing the mike to talk with you.”
ROFLOL!
Great story, love it.
“Must have been the humidity.”
That kind of event happens a lot in nice locations.
Guam is snakes in the electrics isn’t it?
Insects work better than snakes to screw up the electrics.
Just about anywhere can require a new landing gear tire.
Giant freaking stinging bugs trying to nest in the pitot tubes as well.
Sure, Grasshopper. As you wish to tell it, so will it be.
That’s a multi hour at least job.
LOL!
“I sense something....dark.”
And there I was.
