All you need to kill Satan is a sharp stick and an even sharper moustache !

Whoever came up with the idea of werewolves on wheels, is a pure genius.


An MP40 would certainly make me more comfortable confronting a Trex !

Telescope



Took my telescope out for the first time tonight, i have a Skywatcher Dobsonian 10", after plenty of research i decided it was the best choice for me and what i wanted to look at. Managed to get a peek at the crescent moon for a little bit before it disappeared, the detail on it was greater than i imagined cannot wait to see what a full moon looks like. Also honed my sights in on Betelgeuse (The supernovae waiting to happen) which had a golden twinkle in the night sky. What a great night, can only imagine what kind of things i'l be able to see on a clearer night or in an area of low light pollution.

Took a couple of pictures just to test out long exposures and my tripod. The camera im using is a Nikon D70 SLR. I took pictures of the Orion constellation because it was the most visible from where i was. You can see all the light pollution seeping up from Cardiff, but it does make for a nice effect.

Il post more pictures and videos up on here once i get the chance to get out there a bit more !

ISS

Nasa released this image of a cargo spacecraft arriving at the International Space Station (ISS).


Coke can floating into space
Delivering more than four tons of food and supplies to the six international astronauts on the ISS, the unmanned Kounotori2 HH-II Transfer Vehicle (HTV2) docked last Thursday.

'Nasa astronaut Catherine Coleman and European Space Agency astronaut Paolo Nespoli, both Expedition 26 flight engineers, used the station’s robotic Canadarm2 to attach the HTV2 to the Earth-facing port of the Harmony node.'

Such a great picture, Its easy to forget about the ISS above us constantly orbiting Earth. Can only imagine what it would be like to be on it. The curvature of the Earth looks amazing.
