Engage!

Hello, World!

By eclectic demand (that is, demand from several sources - not just people) I'm launching a Blog. A Bliggety-blog.

As the site's name suggests, this will be a gathering point for whatever Seeps out of my Mind. Topics will include, but will not be limited to:

• Space Exploration -
• SpaceX (SpaceX, SpaceX, SpaceX!)
• The wider commercial space industry
• Mars (or wherever) colonisation
• Astronomy, Planetary Science & Astrophysics (from the enthused layman's perspective)
• Cutting-edge tech development (like the work of the Eagleworks lab at NASA Johnson)
• Futurism
• Starry-eyed wonder
• Star Trek
• Other TV shows and movies like:
• Community
• Adventure Time
• Breaking Bad
• Battlestar Galactica
• Stargate 
• Etcetera...
•  The few computer games/sims that still hold my attention (or can be played on my machine)
• That graphic up top comes from Space Engine, for example
•  Etcetera...

I make no promises to keep this up-to-date, or even to ever post another update after this one.

Full disclosure: 

For now, much of what I post here is likely to be rehashed old posts of mine on Reddit.
In part, I'm doing that because I think I write best when I'm answering questions about topics I feel like I have a handle on - but I'm also doing it because I've written reams and reams of stuff that I'm somewhat proud of, stuff I wouldn't mind having more people read... and of course, I'm trying to conquer years of 'inactivity' and anxiety by capping off a hole in my CV, and hopefully doing a little professional writing off the back of this blog... for... like... money!

So this thing exists for a number of reasons... part Destructor's Greatest Hits, part Destructor's Super-Serious Professional Portfolio, part Destructo-Journal, and part Destructor's Trippy Witterings.

Hopefully, this rubs people the right way.

Strap in, and let's (maybe) go!
