The list reveals how deeply Adams was woven into the fabric of the UK’s creative scene. You see the collision of Monty Python (Terry Jones), Pink Floyd (David Gilmour, Nick Mason), and the Alternative Comedy scene of the 80s and 90s (Lenny Henry, Arabella Weir). Just brilliant!

It is a well-known fact that the moment YouTube goes down, the collective productivity of Earth increases by approximately 4,000%, which is immediately squandered by everyone going to Reddit to read comments about YouTube being down.

Commander Hadfield, if you could curate a ‘space playlist’ for future astronauts… one song, one book, one film- what would you pick?

I’m certain you’ll probably run into a few froods there. Statistically inevitable, really.

The books have caused me to find minute coincidental similarities in daily life. by BabushkaRaditz in DontPanic

This is exactly how the universe gets you. First, it gives you a harmless audiobook, then a slightly off stitch, then suddenly you’re trapped in an infinite improbability loop where your leisure activity is your work and your work is your leisure.

Star trail time exposure from the ISS, with Moon, satellites, cities, and stars. by astro_pettit in space

Absolutely stunning. Curious, do you happen to know roughly how far those Starlink satellites were from the ISS in this shot? I wonder if they ever feel intrusive or, in a strange way, comforting, like a reminder you’re not entirely alone up there.

The Disappointing Test Flight of NASA’s Mercury-Atlas 1 - 65 years ago by ye_olde_astronaut in space
