Simple Tricks and Nonsense

Feast your eyes on this awesome photo from Astronomy Picture of the Day, preferably while listening to the theme song from Cosmos:

That's astronaut Tracy Caldwell Dyson relaxing in the International Space Station's cupola, the big observation port that was mounted to the ISS earlier this year. This image is so similar to the cover art of many of the sci-fi novels I read as a kid that I'm frankly a little weirded out by it. I'm experiencing deja vu for a sight that only became possible a few months ago. A strange feeling... but a lovely sight indeed.
