Captain's bLog: 0418.11

•  Posting will probably be comparatively light over the next week or two, as a recent illness has put me far behind on my April commitments. I do expect to have my write-up on Planet Earth posted this week, though, and - of course - will try to stay on top of any news items that may pop up.

I'll probably re-post another old article or two, as well - the site gained a lot of new readers over the last month and a half, and it seems logical (and time-effective) to spotlight some of those older pieces for the convenience of new visitors.

•  And... here's a sweet Enterprise painting by Star Trek production designer/artist Andy Probert that was used by Paramount to promote Star Trek - The Motion Picture back in 1979.

    Chris get well.
    That Andrew Probert awesome Enterprise painting brings back great memories of being a 15 year old in 1979 awaiting Star Trek The Motion Picture's December release and reading STARLOG magazine.

    Actually - I was sick for the last couple weeks, and I'm feeling better now. Unfortunately, that prolonged illness really knocked me for a loop, and put me way behind schedule on my freelance writing assignments.

    I know it looked like I was plenty prolific here at Space: 1970, but I had a lot of posts written up in advance... ;)
