"But why would a nonhuman want to strangle a human with wire? Hell, most nonhumans could achieve the same result one handed.

Which would certainly account for the bitter taste of vengeance in the air."

p. 9 (Nook edition)

Friday Art & History Feature - Images of Spaces/Cosmos

Images of space always fascinated me, way before I met my space obsessed and Star Trek (the original) fan husband. Something about the images of cosmos touches us on a very primal and mystical level. Below are a few of my favorite photos and art images of this last frontier that I hope you'll enjoy.
