GET YOUR HOT BEAN WATER AT THE ALL-NITE BEAN EMPORIUM!

I had to draw this version of Dib that belongs to Aperfecttimeforscreaming.

He looks like a roach and probably smells like a different kind of roach (: sorry not sorry.

ENJOY!

Plenty of news stories have focused on the danger posed by Kessler syndrome. In this condition, space is made inaccessible by a cloud of debris surrounding our planet that would destroy any further attempts to get into orbit. Therefore, plenty of companies have sprung up to take care of the problem, from blasting derelict satellites with lasers to helping to refuel them—lots of business models have been created to capture this opportunity. One of the farthest along is Astroscale. This British start-up is tackling the problem with one of the more conventional techniques—linking up with an existing satellite to deorbit it. And recently, they released a promotional video for their new project—the ELSA-M. ELSA-M, which stands for End of Life Services by Astroscale-Multiple, is designed to couple with an existing satellite, force it into a lower orbit, and make it reenter more quickly. It will be the first satellite to boost itself up to another orbit for a second rendezvous and deorbit that second satellite as well. It's unclear how many of these projects a single ELSA-M satellite can take on, but the "multiple" in its name implies at least more than one.

Wow, it's been a really long time since I've posted one of these, but I'm hoping doing so on the regular will keep me motivated to keep writing. I'm over half-way through my original timeline for Space Trash, so we're on the home stretch!

Here's a couple tiny blurbs from the main story of Space Trash and a tiny side project in the same AU.

“Who are you?” Jules asked with a confused frown. The recent events left her doubting he was even real. The man's eyebrows shot up. He transferred the massive hydrogen blade with its glowing edge to the opposite hand and offered the freed one to her. “King Alistair Theirin, monarch of the entire Fereldan system. We met a few hours ago, but it's fine. I've been told I'm a forgettable fellow.”

And from a side story:

He released her and started to roll his sleeves back down again. “You take care of the paint for me and I’ll go send Bull and the Chargers your way.” He started to walk away, then turned and walked backwards a few paces. “Oh, hey, is our bet still on?”  “Absolutely. I can’t believe you think you’re gonna make money off that,” Jules scoffed.  “I’m telling you,” Morgan said, shaking his head with a grin, “he’s gonna cry.”

[Re-upload] I put subtitles on That Scene from "Friendship One"  [Star Trek Voyager S07E21 crack]

When Voyager’s senior officers’ meeting devolves into Janeway's US History class - not for the first or the last time

Also I’m almost through posting the subtitles vids I’ve already made and I’m open to suggestions!

This book covers the topic of Orbital debris, what it is, where it comes from, what problems it introduces, and how to deal with it. . Putting a communications satellite in synchronous orbit will set you back 100’s of millions of dollars. Once on orbit, you hope it survived the launch environment, and operates correctly. You further hope it works at least for its design lifetime, and as long as possible. This approach, based on good engineering design practices, lessons learned, and hope, it the equivalent of buying a new Tesla with non-rechargeable batteries, and driving it until it stops. Then buying a new one. Regardless of what you were told, there is no satellite fairy with a magic wand. There will be some serious trash-talk here. This third edition has some breaking news that happened as the second edition was published.

Realistic Science + Cosmic Horror

God, the idea of space trash is so genuinely horrific and existential that I just NEED it to be the plot of a cosmic horror novel. A real horror + the themes of cosmic [a fundamentally impossible] horror genre. I'm telling ya'll, space/realistic science cosmic horror will be the next big thing in say, 5 or 10 years.

The Federal Communications Commission has started writing tickets for wrist-slap fines for space trash, beginning with the $150,000 it’s charging Dish Network after the company failed to cleanup its dead EchoStar-7 satellite. Not that $150,000 is going to matter much to a company reporting $16.7 billion in revenue in 2022, but the fact that the FCC has to do something at all should be a wakeup call that the enshittification of space has indeed commenced.

It's been an embarrassingly long amount of time, but I've just published Chapter 19 of Space Trash. I really haven't abandoned it. I still very much want to finish it, but the writing muse has definitely left me high and dry. (And, not just where it pertains to Space Trash) If people still care about it, I'm going to work on finishing it, even if it's slowly. That's how anything gets done though, right? Little bit at a time.
