This may sound stupid, but I never realized you could actually own your own electron microscope.  Thanks for sharing that!  I will definitely check out that youtube channel when I have some time.  Also, Urbicande, thanks for sharing the APOD link too!  There was a gorgeous picture of nebula when I looked at it last. 

Here's another thing I love: cocolithophores



and Diatomes while I'm at it!



It's amazing the see these tiny things that you'd otherwise never knew existed.  :D

Taking a shot with resurrecting this thread, with this:
NASA just made some retro style "Be a Mars Explorer!" posters, and the simple fact that this is not some mundane cool art but something that has a high chance of becoming reality in my lifetime makes me grin ear-to-ear.

Also, the posters look rad. ;D

I didn't notice this thread before. Might this be the place to post if I have a dream of obtaining my piloting license someday ? I don't think I want to become a professional pilot or anything, I just want to be able to fly air crafts for my own enjoyment.

I love all of these. Everything about this (including that it might become reality!) is so, so awesome.

A few weeks ago I remembered that I'm hoping to graduate with an aero-astro engineering degree in 2020, and SpaceX claims that they will be going to Mars 2025. I love living in the future.

In case you're speaking of needing navigators, Mars is that thing behind you. You seem to have landed on one of its moons instead.
