Happy International Day of Human Space Flight! For those not Earth based it celebrates the first human space flight by Yuri Gagarin. One whole rotation of Earth in Vostok 1, which at the time was a Big Ass Deal and predated the American moon landing by eight years, which sadly Gagarin didn't live to see.
Anyways have a picture of the Orion Nebula that I found in the Castle archives. Orion Nebula can be visible even with a telescope on Earth and was one of the first things in the night sky I obsessed over as a kid and pretty much cemented the I want to go to there.

Hey, I was going to go see Red in a little bit here, was wondering if you wanted to come with me?
