Both optimists and pessimists contribute to our society. The optimist invents the airplane and the pessimist the parachute. Gil Stern (via amplequotes)

Today a ‘tricked out’ convertible drove by me. I could hear the bass line of the music from a street away and braced myself for the inevitable blast of rap music. The driver was playing Mozart at max volume. IMMD. It Made My Day (via kbkarma) (via inky)

Yes, that’s a moon! Mimas, moon of Saturn, to be exact.

I love this moon. And I think we know the source of the debris in Saturn’s rings now :-)

VY Canis Majoris is the largest known star in the universe. Its size is between 1,800 and 2,100 solar radii (where 1 solar radius is equal to the current radius of the Sun, or roughly 110 times the radius of Earth).

Click the image to see just how huge this is.

If the Sun was replaced by VY Canis Majoris, Earth, and all the planets out as far as Jupiter, and maybe even Saturn, would be inside the star.

I love Gaudí’s crazy architecture. Especially Parc Güell, also in Barcelona.

This is a composite image of Saturn’s moon Titan, which is being considered for possible space colonization. Titan has a thick atmosphere which scientists believe to be much like that of Earth’s. It is also believed to have lakes, mountains and even a methane-spewing volcano. Here is an image of Titan’s surface, taken in 2004 by the international joint probe mission Cassini.
