Whoa, that’s awesome.
Although, because of all the sci-fi and fantasy stories I’ve read in my lifetime, that also kinda looks like it could be a gateway…

BTW, the vast number of cosmic pearl necklaces are what gave rise to the term “Milky Way“. See? Who said science couldn’t be sexy?

Y’all have heard about the proposed new all-gay interplanetary exploratory/medical science space mission, haven’t you? It’s call “Operation Titan-Uranus”.

The mission motto of Operation Titan-Uranus is “Boldly going where many men have come before.”

B.C, when the Operation Titan-Uranus mission is being prepared for, how long do they repeat the entry/extraction phase?
