in which there are links

Firstly, I rediscovered the Hubble Site in my bookmarks! So that means I spent an hour downloading gorgeous pictures of nebulae and galaxies.
My favourite has to be this nebula: Pismis 24 and NGC 6357

Secondly, blood stain pillows. I seriously want to make one. I may very well do.

Thank you for posting the link to the Hubble website. It's a shame it won't be serviced anymore--the JWST can only observe in infrared, so it's likely it won't produce the same type of images as Hubble did.

Also, those bookcases are amazing--I've got two boxes of books sitting in my room waiting for new shelves, so I definitely wish I had one of those! (And the cube dresser, but I have neither the room nor the money for that.)

It is a shame, especially since the images played such an important role in illustrating astronomic discoveries, but at least some of the other equipment is still working. The IR camera might not capture the same amount of spectacular images, but it's still a camera dammit.

And I really like the more architectural bookcases. It makes me want to get more books to make it worth getting one.
