In-game pic from the Industry Pre-Alpha Preview of Kitten Space Agency by RocketWerkz. I got into orbit of Luna (LOVE that they are calling it that!) and tried to recreate an Earthrise shot.

My granddaughter is playing this - she finished the first chapter (A New Hope). The scene with Chewbacca wanting a medal at the ending ceremony made me fall out of my chair laughing!
Star Wars premiered when I was 17; it will be part of my granddaughter's life from the beginning. She LOVES R2-D2!

Exoplanets are simply awe-inspiring! I have an exoplanet lecture, and I do a running exoplanet count in my monthly "President's Field of View" post for the newsletter of the Michigan's Warren Astronomical Society.
I've travelled to countless exoplanets in SpaceEngine:
