"Interstellar Mission to a Black Hole"

No word of a lie, one of the appeals of vampirism is living long enough to see shit like this happen.
The tortoise lives for 200 years, ...wasted on them!

OK, there's one thing bothering me regarding “Alien: Earth”: If you're on a decades-long deep space mission that requires cryo pods, how do you have cats on board the spaceship? Do they have their own little cryo pods? Or are they just semi-feral and evolve into a new species over time, like in “Red Dwarf”?

There is a red cat briefly seen on the Maginot. If I recall correctly, there is also a cat on the Nostromo. How?

I mean, sure, cats have historically been part of ship crews, but in space?

For man's second interstellar voyage in my sci-fi universe: a tenuous world of Everest-tall glass spires, supersonic winds, and even more sublime wonders.

This post's featured image is "Storm rising at Devils Tower", taken by me (providing some inspiration for the spires of this world).

1965 Intergalactic Journey

The image features a cartoon character, which appears to be from the 1965 film "Journey to the Center of the Earth." This character is depicted inside an interstellar vehicle that looks like a submarine with a large dome at the front.
The vehicle is flying through space, surrounded by swirling clouds of red and pink hues, suggesting a scene of intense action or turbulence.
A large explosion can be seen nearby, indicating some sort of conflict or danger in this imaginative depiction of intergalactic travel.
