Here is a list of fifty videos with a space theme that might be worth bookmarking and coming back to during the quiet moments.

A double treat stretching majestically across the sky. I grabbed a piece for you. [Update: Several pieces. Glued two together for you to get the full effect. See above. It was raining, so was not so careful with my alignments when snapping in my haste to escape….]
Notice that the colour sequence (ROYGBIV) runs backwards on one as compared to the other. […] Click to continue reading this post
