Re: Earthrise from the Moon (Kaguya)
I consider myself misanthrope, and I am not very social. I hate summer time, convertible sport cars, excessively tanned fitness freaks with silicone implants, saturated pitch control on vocals of every single pop song on the radio, dogs in the elevator sniffing my shoe, neighbour’s kids staring at me while I chill on my balcony...

One moment like this changes entire perspective.

I was just trying to feel the moment being that far...hoping that some transducer will not go out of calibration, fuel control indicating alarm...and onboard computer becoming corrupted...

...from that far, that stupid dog in the elevator, and annoying silicone implanted excessively tanned convertible sport car passengers...those snotty kids...all of them...I would miss every single moment! Maybe I don’t hate people after all! I just need to go far enough to start appreciating them!

Funny, I thought it was rather boring. Some high resolution might change that, but I doubt it.

Personally, I've gone through these "small and insignificant" emotions a long time ago, and not behind my computer screen.

What am I missing?

Wow.

Only 40 years after we first saw this stuff live. What next?

The invention of Jiffy-Pop popcorn?
