A desperate mission of survival, and an ill-fated rescue. Larsen's first day of rejuvenation, was off to a bad start. #TheSolProtocol #SciFi #Books If you're into aliens, A.I. and adventure, pick up Tusk today and jump into the action. amzn.to/42ffSp9

Very cool. But where are the Roo-bars? 🤓

The Citroën 2CV is back as a low-priced, electric hatchback. It’s smaller than the original, with plenty of retro design cues and colorful materials. Citroën aims to have the production car ready by 2028 at €15,000. Original post

The 2CV is back.and I want!! 🤓 Citroën just revealed the new Concept for 2028. Ribbed bonnet, protruding headlights, roll-back cloth roof, and those signature bubble proportions. Bright orange, deck-chair seats, and an egg basket in the cabin (because of course it does). Target price<15k 🤩 😍 Newt

Stop teasing Citroën. Je dois savoir! 🤓

🇫🇷 The 2CV is coming back. And this time, it’s electric. ⚡️ Citroën has teased more glimpses of its new 2CV-ahead of its Paris Motor Show reveal- in a very appropriate shade of Spot orange 🍊 🇫🇷 Frog-eye LEDs? ✅ Corrugated bonnet? ✅ Four-stud wheels? ✅ That unmistakable 2CV vibe?

Magical. #art

1/2 For a bit of fun, I started reading Le Jour du Dépassement. Very good - But what is Earth Overshoot Day? This date marks the point in the year when humanity’s demand for ecological resources and services exceeds what Earth’s ecosystems can regenerate in that entire year.

2/2 This year it was 30th July 2026 Humanity is currently using nature 73% faster than ecosystems can regenerate, which is the equivalent of living off 1.73 Earths. Sustainable? No. 🔥🤔

I've been very much enjoying #Silo on #AppleTV. Read the Hugh Howey books a while ago, and I'm pleased the story holds well between media. But season 4! July 2027? Sooo far away. 😭 #SciFi #filmsky

The perfect ZX Spectrum game. #Retro #80s

Elite was released 42 years ago. This space trading open world game is considered to be the forerunner of many modern games, as well as being an important milestone in the history of space sci-fi. Art by Philip Castle🔽

You ever get the feeling the F-104 Starfighter was incorrectly named? Maybe 'Interceptor' would have been better? Point-Shoot-Fly right by. A turning circle of 'sometime-next-Tuesday is not that useful for a fighter, I don't think. 😆 #Planes #Military

Scouting for my next EV. Definitely worth taking a look. Which brand will be the first to break 1000 km before needing to charge? Interesting. Interesting. #Science #EV

Today we're celebrating 60 years since the first episode of Star Trek aired 🖖 More than 900 episodes, 14 films, hundred of books and games later - so many stories! - it's time to go back to basics.

Before allowing Data Centres into your neighbourhood, put aside the water and power consumption, which is legally defined to take priority over any local community need, just ask yourself one question. Could you sleep at night?… Actually, sleep at night. #NoAI #NoDataCenters

Data centers are noisy, they take out drinking water and emit tons of EMFs all in the same package. And possibly take out jobs.

McQuarrie-ish. #SciFi #Art Superb work by Mr McQue.

Wanted to live in Cloud City ever since I first saw The Empire Strikes Back. Feels like I’ve been painting variations of it forever

My getaway vehicle...? No one's catching me. Would you go head to head with this Battlestar? 🤓 #BSG #SciFi #filmsky

#SciFi Joy. A little nostalgia and a slice of Moon base Alpha. Superb box and diecast model of one of my favourite spacecraft designs. #Eagle #Space1999

Watching Reacher on Amazon. Now considering unsubscribing from Amazon for advertising this crap. You know I have a camera in my phone, right, and people clearly know when I'm taking a photo and can move out of shot if they want. With #Meta #Glasses it's all sneek and spy. All bad.

Absolument magnifique!

Spacewalk complete. ✅ After 6 hours and 23 minutes outside the International Space Station, Sophie Adenot is safely back inside. With today's EVA, Sophie becomes the first French woman to perform a spacewalk. 🇫🇷 @exploration.esa.int

As I totally failed to get any good shots of the eclipse yesterday, reposting someone who aced it. Brilliant to witness. #SpaceIsAwesome #eclipse

Next year's plan, for sure. #heatwave #climate
