Agreed. The picture itself is awesome, but all the imagination, engineering, and hard work that make it possible are simply awe inspiring. NASA does truly amazing work with their unmanned space program.
I wish NASA could do the same with their manned space program. From 1969-1972, we went someplace...the moon.
For the past 50 years (almost), the program seemed lost. They kept, literally, going in circles...first around the Earth (ISS) and soon, it seems, around the Moon (Lunar Gateway).
It would be nice if they would pick a destination and simply focus on getting there

I was just being a facetious prick Mike. Don't who you were talking about and Hee Haw sounded enough like Eeyore[^] for me to make a Dad joke.

Spent a week in the woods doing trail maintenance, I was so tired you could have told me the moon was gone and I would have believed you.

Indeed. I had always thought he was a hack, until I heard him play a classical guitar piece during an interview. It was beautiful.

My Microscope post[^] made it into the CP Insider!
It's an awesome honor - the pinnacle of something - a surprise, for sure, as I thought it to be rather mundane . . .
. . . or perhaps things are duller around here than I realized?

I would, for example, never post this link[^]
Or maybe I misunderstood the 5th grade limit analogy?

I thought it was an interesting post but didn't have time to comment on it then. I bought one for a gift over 10 years ago and always intended to get one for myself...I'm sure the hardware and software has improved dramatically since I last looked at them.

Actually - the reason for the original post is because the massive influx of Chinese made equipment and software has turned it into a rather problematic decision. Specifications aren't quite enough as you need to read the (negative) comments to find the flaws that, no surprise, are overlooked.
Then, of course, there's the good stuff - much more than I had planned on spending. I'll bite the bullet at some point, but flailing with various versions of searches seems to be the current state.
It may end up in the mode of getting something rather cheap that works and simultaneously ascertaining interest (of the young ones) and what features, in actual operation, are really must-haves.
