Star Trek: Deep Space Nine // S05E14: In Purgatory’s Shadow
ESA’s Jupiter Icy Moons Explorer, Juice, will make detailed observations
of the giant gas planet and its three large ocean-bearing moons –
Ganymede, Callisto and Europa – with a suite of remote sensing,
geophysical and in situ instruments. The mission will characterise these
moons as both planetary objects and possible habitats, explore
Jupiter’s complex environment in depth, and study the wider Jupiter
system as an archetype for gas giants across the Universe.
The V Files: The Shocking Legacy of an ’80s Sci-Fi Cult Classic
Even 40 years later, V is still getting under
people’s skin. The writer, producer, and director Kenneth Johnson has
never stopped getting fan mail about the miniseries he created back in
1983, which rattled America with its depiction of cold-blooded
authoritarians conquering the world. The invaders in red jumpsuits, dark
glasses, and ball caps were actually beings from another planet, but
Johnson intended the sci-fi drama to be more than mere escapism. To him,
it was a warning.
