          My space station generator is finally working and integrated into the game.

          Sensible blue-prints, semi-realistic modules, airtight structure, dockable, Newtonian physics working, player can add or remove modules... people will never know how hard it was to get this working... omg just pain pain pain

                    NASA is going back to the moon after 50 years ... on April fool's day.

                    The irony ...

                    "How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations! For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High. Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit."

                    Artemis (Diana) is Apollo's twin sister. Together the two are 'Lucifer'.

                    They are chief deities of the solar worship cult.

                          Explanation:
                          Some stars explode in slow motion. Rare, massive Wolf-Rayet stars are so tumultuous and hot that they are slowly disintegrating right before our telescopes. Glowing gas globs each typically over 30 times more massive than the Earth are being expelled by violent stellar winds. Wolf-Rayet star WR 124, visible near the featured image center and spanning six light years across, is thus creating the surrounding nebula known as M1-67. Details of why this star has been slowly blowing itself apart over the past 20,000 years remains a topic of research. WR 124 lies 15,000 light-years away towards the constellation of the Arrow (Sagitta). The fate of any given Wolf-Rayet star likely depends on how massive it is, but many are thought to end their lives with spectacular explosions such as supernovas or gamma-ray bursts.
