    Gives Event Horizon vibes

    Foreboding, dark sphere surrounded by a concentric ring of lights, from the 1997 horror movie Event Horizon

      Is this the film that could be mistaken for a warhammer 40k prequel?

        Yup. Feels very much like Warp Travel pre-Gellar field if you put that lens on it.

        I still remember when i watched as a teen. It was airing on TV and I was like “sweet, a sci fi space movie!”. I was really enjoying it but then the horror starts… I was so freaked out but couldnt stop watching.

              Without spoiling, it challenges your entire conception about what consciousness and life are. It’s definitely an Event Horizon kind of horror mind fuck that sucks you in. (Except it’s a book so that feeling continues for days lol)

              I never read any Dune. Always wanted to. My mom picked up the first one for me, used, somewhere, when I was little, and I stared at it on the shelf for decades.

                Will put it on the list to read after!

                Dune seems tricky to read as a child/teenager, it starts to get philosophical as the story goes on.

    I once looked into the eyes of a Mountain Gorilla in the wild. He stared back at me with a gaze slicing right through my soul. It felt old, wise and above all, very intelligent. He was on to me. It made me feel small.

    If you’ve ever experienced that, you’ll never question that gorillas and humans are very close cousins indeed.

    Dissect him how I may, then, I but go skin deep; I know him not, and never will. But if I know not even the tail of this whale, how understand his head? much more, how comprehend his face, when face he has none? Thou shalt see my back parts, my tail, he seems to say, but my face shall not be seen. But I cannot completely make out his back parts; and hint what he will about his face, I say again he has no face.

          Beautiful pictures but a sad story. She (the whale) was killed by a boat a few days after the pictures in the op and article were taken
