fly me to the moon

One small step for man, one giant leap for ma--- whinnie the pooh?

little astronaut toys are exciting.

Space is a very interesting topic. Both types of space actually.

Space: a blank area
Space (Outer): any location outside the Earth's atmosphere.

Everyone enjoys blank areas, that are usually reserved for something. In other words: this is my lego play-space. This is your space in which you can nap. This is my sexy-time space... and so is this... and that too.

Not everyone enjoys Outer Space... but they should.

Outer Space has very distinct forms of loving it. You can love it from a science point of view, from a history point of view, from a geography point of view, you can love it from an astronomy point of view, you can love it from an astronaut point of view, you can love it from a science-fiction point of view, etc. My favourite(s) being the last 2 (disbarring of course 'etc').

Who doesn't want to be an astronaut and walk on a surface that is not our own, go out into the galaxy and find new life, play on different surfaces, and leap around in 0G. The universe is an expansive place, and one day the hope is that we will be able to move freely among the stars, it only saddens me that i was born in the era where that wasn't happening.

The science-fiction aspect of course, represents that era; where huge galactic frigates do war in space, or where humanity has colonized distant planets, or where deep-core mining ships traipse the galaxy looking for raw minerals... they are all so glorious.

Space, the amazing frontier.
