Nach einiger Zeit habe ich nun meine andere DAEDALUS-KLASSE (Star Trek) entstaubt und eine Szene mit einem Sternennebel gerendert, den ich vor ein paar Tagen frisch zusammengebastelt habe.
In meinem Fanon sind die Raumschiffe dieser Klasse nicht nur 105 Meter lang, sondern sie haben eine Länge von 186,2 Metern, bei einer Breite von 84,2 Metern und einer Höhe von 58,5 Meter.
Thank you to everyone who's already pledged, but we've still got a long way to go! If you like weird #SciFi and #Horror, these anthologies are really going to be something special. #WritingCommunity #Bookstodon
If you know anything about my spacey art you know spacey blue had to show up in this scene sooner or later. 😀 My new "Ruminating a route in blue". 🚀🌌

Alflynd IV: Aldric's Phoenix
"Biologists who did on-location studies of Alflynd had to question some of their core precepts - What's the point of having 'species' when essentially every creature can produce viable offspring with every other creature?"

Ran across a post from 2018 that reminds me, we haven't done nearly as much with the marriage of virtual reality and #teledildonics as we could have done, and doubtless will do in the future. Graphics here are from a noncon #BDSM #scifi comic, but there's no reason we couldn't be doing essentially this essentially now. I know people are working on it, but there's room yet for a ton of progress!

Alflynd IV:Standing in the Hatch
"So...you knew the heir has been hidden on Alflynd for 16 years, and now we find out that a "lost" Imperial ship that disappeared less than a month after the heir vanished secretly has been on the planet and acting as a hub for a rogue base that may well have cloned the heir as part of an unknown plot?"
"Yeah, that's pretty much the situation."
"Fuck me, mate."

I think there's great potential for a serious dystopian near-future sci-fi series based on the worldbuilding of Command & Conquer and Killzone.
Tiberium-driven climate change sends streams of refugees from poor equatorial regions to rich temperate regions, whose crowded under-supplied containment zones cause the radicalization of the youth to follow an autocratic guerilla cult, and the military response only make things worse.

I usually don't like reading endless sequels of sci-fi books - but I'll make a gleeful exception for Anne Currie's "Panopticon" series. What if the METAVERSE but IN SPACE! With a MURDER! C'mon, how can you not love that? At its heart is a classic Asimov mystery. Why would a robot kill a human? It […]

My latest book review: Hel’s Eight by Stark Holborn. Unique, atmospheric sci-fi dystopia. Out today.
https://susannashore.blogspot.com/2023/03/hels-eight-by-stark-holborn-review.html
It’s lovely to see where the ebooks end up, & the many different devices people use to read them.
“Sophie’s lilting prose weaves together the tales of women and their relationship with self in a changing world…
… the second book, Prophets of The Red Night, took me deeper into the realm of the central characters, and had me recognising elements from many of them, good and bad. the last instalment of The MthR Trilogy is out on 1st May and I can’t wait.”

Yes, I still remember the book I loaned my sister's friend over forty years ago. The Realms of Tartarus by Brian Stableford. Months went by, and then a year, and no mention of it. A year later I bought another copy and vowed to put it out of my mind. I've done a great job, no? #ScienceFiction #books #reading #scifi
Starting "The Labyrinth", a graphic novel by Simon Stålenhag. If it's like his earlier work, it's better described as an art book than a graphic novel. It doesn't have multi-panel pages and word ballons. It's a large format hardcover book (approx 10" square), with full-page art of single scenes (sometimes double-page spreads) with a few paragraphs of prose on the opposite page. They're moody, realistic dystopian near-future science fiction. The art is fantastic and the stories are almost mundane, laced with sadness and creepiness. They're subtle and grounded.

Since I finished "Notorious Sorcerer", here is the next book I'm reading:
Alflynd IV:The Lost Imperial Heir
We examined the scene on the hill with our macro-binoculars.
"Is that..?"
"The lost Imperial Heir? Yes."
"She's the girl we've been tracking?"
"Yes."
"I didn't know she had a younger sister."
"She doesn't."
"Oh. That's a problem."
"Yes."

Dennou Coil is an amazing anime from 2007. It's like a combination of Studio Ghibli, Ghost in the Shell, Digimon, a ghost story, and a mystery.
"The story follows a group of children as they use AR glasses to unravel the mysteries of the half real, half Internet city, using a variety of illegal software tools, techniques, and virtual pets to manipulate the digital landscape."

So, I'm making a marathon of MCU movies from the beggining, and just finished watching "ThorThe Dark World" and I don't understand why people hate it so much 🤨
The Three-Body Problem, by Ken Liu, is a very cool example of Chinese science fiction. It's a little more current than Li Bai, anyhow!
I talked to a Chinese person recently that says he likes our funky lizard-bat dragons better than the snake thing dragons they call longs.
Hurray for lizard-bats! And great sci-fi.

Just fiction so far, and only a couple of the collections (that are part of bigger series that have novels as well).
Wohoo, Battlestar Galactica Blurays are on their way in the mail. 😁
I want to rewatch the show soon, and all I have are some old DVDs and some low quality downloads of the series.
Not sure where I watched it last time, but it must have been on some streaming service. It's always difficult to chase old shows around the lot of them 🙄
Chapter 16 is currently ‘premiering’ on YouTube. Home stretch on this Space Rogues adventure!

"Bloodchild" (1984)
by Octavia E. Butler
The Tlic, an insectoid race, use humans to carry their eggs. Gan, a boy chosen to bear the eggs of T'Gatoi, a Tlic official, must assist her with surgery on a human who's being eaten alive by his hatched larvae.
Butler's unusual coming-of-age tale finds humans on the short end of a power imbalance; instead of conquering the Tlic, they become a commodity on an alien world.
Just started playing around with AI photo manipulation, interesting to say the least. This is the interpretation of the Tetons 5 million years in the future.

Alflynd IV:The Little Folk
"If there is one thing humans are known for, it's giving their own traits to things they fear or dream of. Imperial scientists estimate that up to 50% of the sentient beings on Alflynd are descended from domestic animals, or even plants. Numbers are hard to quantify given that the little folk tend to avoid their former masters."
