Here's something geeky-cool:http://solarship.com/aircraft/caracal Not the Caldari Caracal, but what isn't cool about a lifting body/blimp combination?!?

Have something to geek-out on? Join us in [SOUND] and have a chat.

OK, back to the Minmatar and their Norse inspirations: Sleipnir ('slippery') was an eight legged horse, Odin's steed (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sleipnir). Oh, and the horse was the child of Svaðilfari (a stallion) and Loki (the trickster god). That sounds like a hell of a party.

Please join us in [SOUND] to chat about various things not related to horse-god procreation.

Moros, the 'personification of impending doom' - not a bad name for a dreadnought, though it might have been better applied to the Titan, with its doomsday weapon. Not that I've ever been known for subtlety or anything.

Join us in [SOUND] to chat about your dream doom inspiring internet spaceship!

Just a pretty picture today: Sword of Orion Maybe CCP's nebulae aren't that unrealistically over the top, after all.

Join us in [SOUND] chat to discuss the birth of stars, and your own maturing as a player.

NASA's Messenger spacecraft has determined that Mercury's crust is thin at one pole, much much thicker in the middle, and thin again at the other pole.

If that seems oddly familiar, you might just fit in with us in [SOUND]. Stop by for a chat.

When I grow up, I want to be a cryomechanical engineer. Well, call me whatever, but if I get to design a harpoon for comets, I'm in! http://www.popsci.com/science/article/2012-03/harpooning-comet-%E2%80%9Cwe-plan-retrieve-primordial-ooze-solar-system%E2%80%9D

Join us in [SOUND] and tell us what piques your curiosity. Mine is piqued by the various URLs that CCP's forum software doesn't want to parse in an actual 'url' BBCode tag.

I wonder if the Eve cluster looks like that from the outside? Discuss with us in [SOUND]

Did you know: Cryptozoologists claim that Canada is the home of several cryptids, including Sasquatch, a giant sloth-like creature known as the beaver-eater, a cannibalistic wildman named Windigo, and a number of lake monsters, such as Ogopogo in Lake Okanagan, British Columbia.

True comics fans know that Wendigo was the star of Incredible Hulk #180-#181 and responsible for 100% of the value of those two comic books. Take a break from eating beavers and join [SOUND] chat in-game today, we'll try to be your protective shield against the cannibalistic wildmen that inhabit EVE.

Did you know: The ancient Mbaya Indians of the Gran Chaco in South America believed that humans originally lived underground until dogs dug them up

So yeah, the ancient Mbaya Indians of the Gran Chaco in South America were dumb. Good to know. You'd be pretty dumb for not dropping by [SOUND] chat today too, we'll try to help you dig out some enjoyment in this sometimes dog

Did you know: The most common types of suicide include copycat, euthanasia, familicide, forced, honor, Internet, martyrdom, ritual, attack, and cop suicides.

Though to be sure, next year will see the newest introduction to this list: suicide by getting a gaggle of angry obsessive nerds to harass someone. Looking for a corp, join [SOUND] chat today... even if we lead you into a suicidal situation, we usually have a quick reimbursement following it.

Did you know: Every member of President Teddy Roosevelt’s family owned a pair of stilts, including the first lady

AMAZING FACTS ABOUT STILTS! Here's another... Stilt-man sucks! Your gimmick is that you're going to use telescoping stilts to rob high rise apartments... like you won't be seen, stupid! You're also not going to be able to rob much from arms-length of the window! Think any other corporation in EVE is going to provide AMAZING FACTS ABOUT STILTS? Obviously not, so join [SOUND] chat today for a smattering of stilted conversation.

And now here's something we hope you'll really like: pictures of slightly more sciency and slightly less fictiony spaceships than ours!

If you can spot the allusion in the above sentence and would like to discuss Ginger vs. Maryann vs. Natasha, join us in [SOUND]. Heck, even if you're a young'un with no idea what I'm talking about, come on in. I promise not to do too much cane-shaking.

Did you know: Called “re-entrants,” dolphins once lived on land and looked and behaved something like a small wolf but with five hoof-like toes on each foot instead claws

And now they're just the wolves of the sea, killing all in their path. Get off your hoof-like ass and join [SOUND] chat today, like dolphins, we try to save drowning EVE players and nestle them back to safety. Also, just like Dolphins, we shoot lasers at spaceships.

A random number generator that works off quantum events in a vacuum?!? Maybe now I can stop getting bitched at for always seeding the psuedo-random generators with '42'.

If you're an Eve player between 1 million and 10 million SP and the game seems a little to quantum, stop in the [SOUND] channel: we can help.

Did you know: Many sources claim that left-handers may die as many as nine years earlier than right-handers.

Which is only natural, being that we hunt them for being witches. As pa always said, "kill a lefty today, keep satan away!" You can help keep ol' satan away by joining [SOUND] chat today, we'll do our best to put you on the EVE path of the righteous and not-completely-terribles.

Meanwhile, back in the quantum world, a demonstration that causality is borked in the small scale: http://www.popsci.com/science/article/2012-04/quantum-experiment-effect-happens-cause

If Eve seems a little too non-causal, stop in [SOUND] chat today!

So, in Eve, asteroid mining is a boring way to make isk (Hulkageddon not withstanding). In reality? not so much

And I bet they won't even get brought back to life back in the International Space Station if somebody suicide ganks them!

But we all know there's more to life in Eve than mining! Join us in [SOUND] to talk about what's fun, what's necessary, and what's neither.

This is just cool: Moog Doodle - it works!

Finding that the Eve envelope has a bit too steep an attack? Join [SOUND] and we'll see what we can do about softening that out for a more legato experience.
