Makes perfect sense to me. Today just might mark the launching of Boeing's 'Starliner' for NASA. To be specific on the subject, the "capsule" is called the "Boeing CST-100 Starliner." Not exactly StarTrek but it'll work for now. Boeing's space thingy has a classier name than Musk's "Dragon." I just hope that when SpaceX starts sending people into orbit in the "Dragon", it doesn't go up in a 'puff' of smoke. Musk named his spaceship after that Peter, Paul, and Mary song. You remember, 'Puff the Magic Dragon'? Lived by the sea and blah blah blah. Anyway, Boeing launches today and here's hoping it's an unqualified success. I'd like to go into space but I'm not even close to having enough disposable cash to be able to pull that off. Space will be, for the foreseeable future, the realm of the obscenely wealthy. Well and governments. Space is liable to get a mite crowded here pretty dang quick. The ISS is up there circling our globe and the Russians have begun building their space station and so have the Chinese. Won't be much longer and we'll have us a genuine space incident that will trigger World War III or IV or V or whatever the number is at these days. We'll get to have us a 'Star Wars' right here in near Earth orbit. Won't that be exciting. A global fuck up on that scale would certainly take everyones mind off'n the Covid-19 the Delta Variant. Yes it would. Alrighty then and on that cheery note we'll move us along to the really important stuff and that is of course the machine art. There are no Olympic disqualifications in this batch. Just gold medal winners for sure.
flower burst -
if it makes you happy -
and of course tomorrow will be...that special day. 🙅
