Martin Bayer, he did say of a painting of an alien that looked like a baby elephant:
Clinically, it's called intellectual laziness.
Yes, and the bumps-on-their-foreheads kind who talk about honour/logic/profit/petunias are even worse.
So then, what are the genuinely interesting and deeply...

Finally appearing outside of the US & HBO Max this is one of the best animated shows I’ve seen a long time. Just a shame that though Netflix have now picked it up they’ve done virtually nothing to promote it. Which is a shame as it’s one the best and most truly alien scifi shows animated or not...
This is a thread for interesting or unusual science fiction cover art. As a first post here is the cover to 'Beyond The Stars' a 1983 collection by Octopus books that aside from the usual round of short stories included chapters excerpted from the following novels:

Good sf doesn't just introduce new concepts, it explores the ramifications of those concepts. As HG Wells introduced tanks, DEWs, nukes, transnational organisations, and air power, he also explored what they would mean. Now, I really can't recommend : Lem enough. Under this topic, his 1964...

Since I am not an aviation or aereospace engineer, military or...
Star Trek was part of my childhood TV and it was one of those programmes that my parents watched too.

As the movie industry wheels out yet another Bond film I prefer to return to the world of the original, in the pages of Ian Fleming's novels.
