Space: Large and Empty
Over the weekend I fell into a bit of a science-fiction/science rabbithole. You know, one of those when you click on ONE Youtube video and suddenly the whole Sunday afternoon is gone and your algorithm is all messed up. Anyway, obviously there's tons of fascinating stuff about space and science and all that. Too much, really.
