Another binary star system found – cool that basically everyone just says “Tatooine-like” and we know exactly what they mean.

Fascinating and humorous read looking at space colonisation – whether we’ll ever really achieve it and the myriad problems that space billionaires haven’t even thought of.
Interesting read on the practicalities of building a settlement on another planet. It isn’t going to be happening any time soon…

The trailer for Season 4 of For All Mankind has dropped, looks pretty exciting.
Recently I was playing with Apple Maps on my iMac and I notice that it showed the night lights of Australia. I thought it pretty cool but upon looking closer I noticed many “city lights” in the desert of the western half of Australia. My first thought was “someone at Apple has added random city lights – lame”. There’s NO cities there.
Then upon investigation I discovered NASA’s Earth Observatory had actually captured bush fires at night in 2012. Someone at Apple thought that was cool enough to use on Apple Maps. Awesome
