Some of the best views I've had in this game. Two landable atmospheric worlds and one vacuum world near a red dwarf and white dwarf binary.

I have one complaint about ep 6. Ep 5 ends with an incredibly historic event in the hockey world. And episode 6 treats it almost like an afterthought. Where's the Pride themed victory parade? Where's Scott speaking directly to other closeted players? Or a Pride pin at least? #HeatedRivalry

I know it's a reach but I predict that episode 6 of Heated Rivalry will actually top 5. I think there's a ton of potential feel good stuff that's lined up besides The Cottage. Scott's teammates rallying around him (especially Vaughan), the victory parade in NYC, etc. #HeatedRivalry

Actually I wouldn’t wish that on aliens. I’d rather they take me with them to explore the galaxy. Am I right, Elite Dangerous explorers?
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays everybody! 🎄🎅🎄🎅🎄 #EliteDangerous #HappyHolidays #LGBTQ

How fitting would it be for these two to be air-lifted by actual aliens?

What a great work of art, this is what exploration is all about. When we can reach exotic places like this and take photos like this. #space #sciencefiction #Jupiter #Amalthea

For the final day, 24, of #ArtAdventCalendar, I present this illustration which I call Exploration of Amalthea. The latter is a very small moon of Jupiter in a very close orbit. Jupiter would fill half the sky seen from here!

#SciArt #spaceart #Blender3d
Amalthea is a moon of Jupiter, the third closest to the planet at 181,365 km away (about 2.6 Jupiter radii from the centre of the planet). At just 250 km across at its widest point - its shape is not spherical - Amalthea is small, likely a captured asteroid. This image portrays a potential exploration party on the surface of Amalthea. From there, the globe of Jupiter spans an incredible 46 degrees of arc across the sky. The dark oval seen on the backdrop of Jupiter is the shadow cast by its moon Io.
