Does anyone have any preferences for Spidey logos (specifically for Peter and his classic suit and its derivatives)? Thinking of designing my own take on him and I'm trying to decide on what I want the Spider to look like

Anyone have any good paleoenvironment graphics like this one for Hell Creek, where it shows the relative sizes of a bunch of animals in the region? I'd love to have more of these, particularly for the Paleozoic, but Mesozoic and Cenozoic are acceptable too.

I love politicians that are just completely owned by unelectex billionaires, who then decide who runs the most important programs in the country

Cheyava Falls image was taken by the Perseverance rover on Mars: www.jpl.nasa.gov/images/pia26... The image I used for the K-Pg boundary was taken by Alan Pitts near Gubbio, Italy: gigapan4.gc.cs.cmu.edu/galleries/11... (I think @alanpitts.bsky.social is his?)

The State of Ship 31 is both astounding and fucked. Astounding in that it is clear the ships themselves are more durable than I, most onlookers, and SpaceX themselves gave them credit for. This bodes well for not having Challenger-esque disasters (hopefully)

TQ-12. Chinese engine developed by LandSpace for the Zhuque-2. These were the first methane engines used to power an orbital rocket, and unlike its sibling TQ-11, didn't fail during the test flight. LCH4/LOX Gas generator 658 kN Sea/785 kN Vac 284.5 s Sea/337 s Vac

Archimedes. An engine currently in development by Rocket Lab for both stages of the fully reusable Neutron rocket. Unique in that a large portion of the engine is 3D printed. LCH4/LOX Oxidizer rich staged combustion 730 kN Sea/890 kN Vac 329 s Sea/ 365 s Vac

LE-9. Speaking of bleed expander cycle engines, this is the first such engine used on a rocket first stage, being used in the in development H3. Has operated flawlessly on both test flights. LH2/LOX 1471 kN Vac (can't find Sea thrust) 426 s Vac (can't find Sea specific impulse)

Honourable mentions: BE-3U. Hydrogen engine developed by Blue Origin. Set to debut on New Glenn, and derivatives set to be utilized on Blue Moon and Cislunar Transporter. Has MASSIVE peak potential. LH2/LOX Bleed expander cycle 770 kN Vac (no Sea thrust) 445 s Vac (no Sea specific impulse)

8) F-1. The big boi. This rocket powered the first stage of the Saturn V, and is the most powerful single combustion chamber liquid rocket engine flown to date. RP-1/LOX Gas generator 6770 kN Sea/7770 kN Vac 263 s Sea/304 s Vac

7) J-2. This is one of the first engines to demonstrate relight capability in space, and was what carried us to the moon. Used on the 2nd and 3rd stage of the Saturn V, and 2nd stage of the Saturn 1B. LH2/LOX Gas generator 486.2 kN Sea/1033.1 kN Vac 200 s Sea/421 s Vac

6) RD-170. An incredibly powerful Soviet engine, designed for the ill-fated Energia launch system. Succeeded by the RD-180. Runs an oxygen rich staged combustion cycle, thought infeasible by Americans before the fall. RP-1/LOX 7250 kN Sea/7900 kN Vac 309 s Sea/337 s Vac (no good static fire image)

5) Merlin. The current workhorse of American spaceflight. It is used by all stages of Falcon 9 and Falcon Heavy. Has been able to demonstrate reliable reuse. For Merlin 1D (current version) RP-1/LOX Gas generator 845 kN Sea/981 kN Vac 282s Sea/348 s Vac

4) RL10. This engine is the all time GOAT of the industry. Been around since the 50s as a reliable engine for American rocket second stages. Currently used in Vulcan and SLS. For RL10C-1-1 (current version) LH2/LOX Expander cycle 105.98 kN Vac (no Sea thrust) 443.8 s Vac (no Sea specific impulse)

3) BE-4. Engine made by Blue Origin, currently used by ULA's Vulcan and will be used by Stage 1 of New Glenn. This engine more than likely saved CERT-2 from being a flaming failure. LCH4/LOX Oxygen rich staged combustion 2450 kN Sea (no Vac thrust) 340 s Sea (no Vac specific impulse)

LCH4/LOX Full flow staged combustion 327 s Sea/380 s Vac For Raptor 2 (currently flying) 2.26 MN Sea/2.53 MN Vac For Raptor 3 (in development) Currently 2.75 MN, target appears to be 3.2 MN Sea

1) The RS-25. The most peak engine to ever peak. It looks beautiful, it IS beautiful. The RS-25 was the main engine developed, used, and reused by the Space Shuttle, and is currently used by the SLS. LH2/LOX Fuel rich staged combustion 1860 kN Sea/2279 kN Vac 366 s Sea/452.3 s Vac

Hello lads First post here, wanting to try and find the niche spaceflight and paleo communities here, so if anyone can point me in the right direction, I'd appreciate it Also acceptable recommendations would be artists and analog horror creators/fans
