Friends!

No, he's Too Weak.

We were in the future by 2016...

In the middle.

I've been waiting in the US ALL day...We're like almost the last ones...

If they webcast that, it'll probably be Jeb Kerman himself presenting. Big booms.

I finished Black Mesa today, so I threw together the Nihilanth: Here's some stuff I did later. An oridaunth walking past a helmet on a stake: A helmet-wearer riding a bullsquid of sorts: Cold-dwelling people musing on an upcoming multisolar conjunction:

Hello there I think GRS.

My mission to Moho ended with a proper Kerbal flourish today, as I realized while burning towards home I'd forgotten to put parachutes on the return capsule. No matter, I thought, the Kerbals can just grab the science and bail out after the ballistic flight has settled down. I managed to do just that, and Bill, Bob, and Valentina glided safely down to Kerbin... Unfortunately, none of them could hold on tight enough with their little mittens to pull the science data from the capsule, so I lost two landings' worth of science. Oh well, I mostly did it for the fun of it and the challenge of the enormous delta-V requirement.

There's plenty of content from 1000 years before the Skywalkers, featuring the height of both the Jedi and Sith, including Darth I-Ate-A-Whole-Planet Nihilus. Also the extragalactic threat featured in Legends should be explored, make it very alien with extreme power and unclear motives, like the Combine vs. Star Wars galaxy. Mandalore has a lot of interesting stuff too. There is a lot of material there still.

See if you can match the line to the character. Each of these was spoken by either a Black Mesa Scientist in Half-Life or C-3PO in Star Wars. -This is madness! -Surely someone will come and rescue us? -A failure of this magnitude is extremely improbable... -The possibility of successfully navigating an asteroid field is approximately 3720 to 1! -I am rather looking forward to this analysis. -Do you think they'll melt us down? -As I expected. -Have I been that much of a burden? -I noticed earlier the hyperdrive motivator was damaged. -Did you hear that? They've shut down the main reactor! -This is my hiding spot, and I'm not moving until the situation has drastically improved! -There's no sense risking yourselves on my part. -OH DEAR -Greetings! -Aaaah! Go away! Shoo! Shoo! -Surrender is a perfectly reasonable alternative! -Will we ever make it out of here? -Of course I've looked better!

Yep. But you could even make it ice that wouldn't even boil off when melted if you used one of those materials with a low triple pressure. (If you were on a world with a thin atmosphere, that is.)

There aren't any liquids that like to stay liquid in a vacuum. However, there are a few that can handle pressures pretty close to it. For example, under fairly reasonable temperatures mercury can take anything over 2 billionths of a standard atmosphere. That puts it well in range of keeping happy in the atmospheres of Triton, Pluto, and possibly even Io on occasion. This table will be of interest to you: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triple_point#Table_of_triple_points Looks like ethanol works pretty well, too. You could have a special engineered material in your sci-fi world that works better than any of these, too. Maybe if you didn't keep the whole pool liquid, but just the part around the ship you could stop this from happening. Create a sort of 'bubble' for the ship to pass from the outside in.

I took this picture at Moho and was reminded of that frog in one rocket launch photo...

Then it will likely be visible over North America an orbit or two later.

Space Engine is really nice in VR if you've got the system for it. I find it really relaxing to fly around in desktop mode too. SE is a planetarium, US2 is a physics engine. Both are great. US2 is probably a little less computationally demanding and has a wide variety of stuff to do. Space Engine is great if you have a system that can display it in high detail, but if you have a lower power system you'll probably get more out of US2.

I knew it!

We've already seen Jabba's kid get taken care of by Ahsoka and Anakin during the Clone Wars. Presumably he may still be around somewhere. He doesn't really pull on them, he just disables them with the lightning and lets gravity do the rest.

I've been waiting for the Black Mesa remake of HL1 to be out in full to play it...that time has come!

Just do it with really small eggs and market it like protein popcorn or something.
