May the Fourth be with you, always
star wars, but it’s just the memes
MAY THE FORCE BE WITH YOU
All of us right now, tbh.
#rebellions are built on hope alcohol consumption that makes the unbearable weight of a fascist regime somehow manageable
Star Trek Book and Record mega-post! These are incredibly camp and if you like goofier parts of The Animated Series or the old Gold Key Star Trek comics, you're going to love them.
This is the last one, The Human Factor. 10-thingy Tumblr limit, etc.
They came with comics too, which due to likeness issues featured White Uhura, Black Sulu and a face-painted human M'Ress on a very anemic U.S.S. Enterprise.

Beautiful!
I remember seeing this in 2016 and being amazed. Finally tracked it down.

so you’re telling me that I watched Andor (2022) and I heard quotes like “one way out” , “Tell him I love him more than anything he could ever do wrong.” , “The pace of repression outstrips out ability to understand it.” , “The Empire is a disease that thrives in darkness, it is never more alive than when we sleep.” , “You think they care what we say? Nobody's listening. Nobody.” , “Everyone has their own rebellion.” , and “I burn my life to make a sunrise I know I'll never see.” and now I’m just supposed to watch other Star Wars as if the course of my life wasn’t fundamentally changed-
I listened to this record so often in my youth, that I have it memorized still today. 
Snippets of Black Sulu and White Uhura, from the Book and Record Passage to Moauv (1975). The people behind the comic didn’t have the rights to George Takei and Nichelle Nichols’ likenesses, so this happened. They didn’t have the rights to The Animated Series either, so M’Ress is human with blue skin.
This!
Diego Luna is the second actor in Star Wars history to be nominated for a Golden Globe and the first one was non other then the Great Alec Guinness for A New Hope… I mean… this right here says it ALL!!!
If second season is even half as good as the first season was, I will be pleased.
that haircut... rogue one cassian vibes methinks
It’s funny because he’s not TECHNICALLY lying.
Hilarious!
he has my eternal respect for using his playing spock privileges in a funny way
Love this character
cassian who kept coming back for jyn, risking his own safety
cassian who came back for maarva's funeral and to rescue bix, and made sure he saved everyone he could
cassian who came back for maarva, and wanted to take her someplace where they could be safe
keef, who looked back to his fellow inmate who could not swim, who didn't jump to the sea without him, but instead got pushed
kassa, who never got to go back to his little sister
Echoing the sentiments that these were not just token characters. They had story roles the mattered. The whole point of this cast was to promote equity and diversity.
You ever invite your coworker to watch you give birth just to spite a racist
He was such a wonderful guy. Always so nice to everyone he interacted with. He was beloved by my family and will be greatly missed. ❤️

Follow NASA’s Artemis I Moon Mission: Live Tracker, Latest Images, and Videos
On Nov. 16, 2022, the Artemis I mission officially began with the launch of the Orion spacecraft atop the Space Launch System rocket. The rocket and spacecraft lifted off from historic Launch Complex 39B at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida.
Now, the Orion spacecraft is about halfway through its journey around the Moon. Although the spacecraft is uncrewed, the Artemis I mission prepares us for future missions with astronauts, starting with Artemis II.
Stay up-to-date with the mission with the latest full-resolution images, mission updates, on-demand and live video.
Imagery:
Find full-resolution images from the Orion spacecraft as they are released here.
Launch imagery can be found here. When Orion splashes down in the Pacific Ocean on Dec. 11, the images will be available here, as well!
Videos:
This playlist contains informational videos, as well as upcoming and past live events, about Artemis I.
You can watch a livestream of the Artemis I mission here. (Just a note: the livestream may cut off during moments when the Orion team needs higher bandwidth for activities.)
Keep yourself updated on the upcoming broadcasts of Artemis milestones with the NASA TV schedule.
Trackers:
Our Artemis I Tracker shows where the Orion spacecraft is along the trajectory of the mission.
“Eyes on the Solar System” shows where Orion is in relation to other NASA spacecraft and objects in the solar system:
“DSN Now” shows which antenna on Earth’s Deep Space Network is communicating with Orion.
Updates:
Read up on where Orion is and what’s next in the Artemis I mission with the Mission Blog.
Thank you so much for following with us on this historic mission. Go Artemis!
This show is BY FAR the best thing in Star Wars since Rebels and Rogue One. Slow burn stories are so worth it.

Congratulations on a successful launch!
We are going to the Moon!
At 1:47 a.m. EST on Nov. 16, 2022, our Orion spacecraft launched aboard the Space Launch System (SLS) rocket from historic Launch Complex 39B at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida on a path to the Moon, officially beginning the Artemis I mission.
This mission is the first integrated test of NASA’s deep space exploration systems: the Orion spacecraft, the SLS rocket, and Kennedy ground systems. This is the very first time this rocket and spacecraft have flown together, and it’s the first of many Artemis missions to the Moon. Artemis I is uncrewed, but it lays the groundwork for increasingly complex missions that will land humans on the lunar surface, including the first woman and the first person of color to do so.
With Artemis, we will build a long-term human presence on the Moon and prepare humanity for future exploration plans to Mars and beyond.

Make sure to follow us on Tumblr for your regular dose of space!
This show is freaking amazing!
Some of my fav quotes from ANDOR 1.10 “One Way Out”
“They just killed a hundred men to keep them quiet. What would you call that?” // “I’d call that power.” // “Power? Power doesn’t panic.”
“I’d rather die trying to take them down than die giving them what they want.”
“I’d feel far more comfortable paying you for your trouble.” // “A drop of discomfort may be the price of doing business.”
“I’m dead. I’m dead. I’m pretending to be dead.” // “Don’t die until you put up a fight.”
Kino saying “If we can fight half as hard as we’ve been working, we will be home in no time.” followed by “I can’t swim” stop i-
“ONE WAY OUT! ONE WAY OUT! ONE WAY OUT!”
“Whatever happens now, we made it.”
Luthen’s speech about sacrifice. Literally. The. Entire. Speech.
Can not agree more with this. Andor has been outstanding.
I feel qualified to say this because I too have been in this fight since I was 6 years old.
Andor continues to raise the bar every week. This production design is stunning. The acting is fantastic. No episode has felt like a filler episode. This week the main character did nothing but be in prison and yet it was intriguing. Mon Mothma’s story is gripping. This show deserves awards beyond the usual Star Wars Best Effects, Best Sound, etc. This show is a dramatic contender

It’s important to remember Star Trek was more than just a science-fiction show.
Wow I never knew this
Cannot wait for this!
