We Made It To Friday, Part 3

Hey there, took a little break from websites and updating them. Blame the holidays! Regardless, we made it to Friday, again. Did you have a good Christmas Day? Here’s some stuff I’ve been reading, watching and thinking about.

Currently reading:

Thought Forms: A Record of Clairvoyant Investigation. Sacred Bones reprinted this book and it looks great. Pretty sure this book is in the public domain. The Sacred Bones release, though, is packaged in a beautiful book form that feels and looks great in your hands or your bookshelf.

Music:

Three Great Things with Jason Pierce. And an interview with Jason about the upcoming Pure Phase shows.

Sky Stuff Currently Obsessed with:

Lunar Impact Videos.

One of the best websites/articles about the moon I’ve found on the internet.

In the vastness of empty space surrounding Earth, the Moon is our closest celestial neighbor. Its face, periodically filled with light and devoured by darkness, has an ever-changing, but dependable presence in our skies.

In this article, we’ll learn about the Moon and its path around our planet, but to experience that journey first-hand, we have to enter the cosmos itself.

The Parker Solar Probe:

The Fastest Spacecraft Ever Heads for Its Close-Up With the Sun.

NASA: Parker Solar Probe.

Execution of Parker Solar Probe’s unprecedented flight to the Sun and early results. I cannot get enough of NASA diagram and chart aesthetic.

Movie Recommendation:

Star Pilot.

1966 Italian Sci-fi B-movie. Typical with the 60s vibe, the women are dressed pretty proactively, the script is on par with corny Christmas movies and the special effects are not very special but the set and photography is pretty eye catching if you dig 1960s futurism. While it is another alien sci-fi movie about the evils of nuclear destruction, it’s a fun watch and you can see the movie’s influences as well as it’s influence of others that come later in the genre.

Podcasts!

One of my favorite podcasts of 2024 was Every Single Sci-fi Film Ever.

This recent episode was a doozy. I need to try to get Ayesha Khan on Fantastic Voyage.

Hope you all have a fun and safe New Year. I’ll be back live this Sunday at 4pm.
