Wikifying Doctor Who

One of the things I've been doing is slowly going through the Doctor Who entries on Wikipedia and tweaking them. Just finished the entries for the entire Black Guardian trilogy - Mawdryn Undead, Terminus and Enlightenment, so if you ever read those entries, they're largely my work. I'm also responsible for Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart, UNIT and a few others. I've also been watching some of the old serials to refresh my memory of them before I plow into writing the sypnoses. As autographedcat remarked, "What a hardship."

Man Conquers Space

In recognition of SpaceShipOne's flight in a few hours, have a look at "Man Conquers Space", a counterfactual mockumentary about the space program that brought us to the Moon in July 1963, when Eagle One claimed the lunar surface not for the United States, but for all mankind.

Thanks to logam for the link.

Witness to history

( Watching the launch. Warning. Strong Language. )

62 miles up!

... and a perfect landing. Mission accomplished.

Sonofabitch. They did it.

I think I'm going to cry.
