After a long wait, Corridor Digital’s TETHER is finally here. This looks to be a very promising science fiction series. I can’t wait to see more of it.

I am a massive Adam Savage fan. He is one of the people who got me interested in science. So I’d suggest watching his Maker Faire 2012 Talk: Why We Make

Aladdin takes place in the future.

silentcommentary:

In one scene, Genie calls Al’s clothes “so 3rd century”. Genie was trapped for 10,000 years, so there is no way he could know of the fashion trends which have happened whilst he was in the lamp.

Which means at the latest Genie could have been trapped in the lamp during the 3rd century. If he…

I’ve been a fan of Ze Frank’s for since I saw his first TED talk however many years ago that was. Anyway, you might have seen that he recently had a Kickstarter project to bring back The Show. Obviously, I jumped on board immediately. And now it’s happening. Ze’s stuff is funny, and sweet, and cool, and happy, and emotional. And you should really check it out.

I’ve been wanting to play Settlers of Catan even since I read this awesome AskReddit thread about the best boardgames. It looks like loads of fun.

I love Cassini and Voyager. These probes have given us so much data and, as we can see here, so much beauty. Here are two things to look for. At 45 seconds we see Enceladus. Those plumes are massive geysers shooting water ice into space. At 48 seconds is the gravitational effect of a moon on Saturn’s rings. Gorgeous!
