The Osirix Rex mission is about to reach Bennu where it will pull samples from the surface to return to Earth in a few years. Nothing happens quickly in space, but landing on an asteroid, even momentarily, takes some serious skill.Alan Moore has joined the ranks of comic authors who take issue with the state of the industry. We can't blame him, but it would be nice for all the authors to make a statement together.The AGDAs have been awarded, including some great Aussie games from some relative newcomers.Check back next week for more grumpy old men complaining about the comics industry.NASA are gonna land on an asteroid called Bennu - https://www.abc.net.au/news/science/2020-10-09/nasa-osiris-rex-mission-to-bennu-finds-carbon-and-carbonate/12735090Alan Moore’s interview : The mainstream comics industry is about 80 years old and it has lots of pre-existing health conditions. - https://deadline.com/2020/10/alan-moore-rare-interview-watchmen-creator-the-show-superhero-movies-blighted-culture-1234594526/Australian Game Developer Awards 2020 winners - https://www.gamesindustry.biz/articles/2020-10-08-league-of-geeks-named-studio-of-the-year-at-australian-game-developer-awards- https://gcap.com.au/the-agdas/#toggle-id-6Games PlayedDJ– Shotgun Farmers - https://store.steampowered.com/app/604240/Shotgun_Farmers/Rating: 4/5 Professor- Think of the Children - https://store.steampowered.com/app/573600/Think_of_the_Children/Rating: 4/5Other topics discussedAstronomers spy phosphine on Venus, a potential sign of life- https://astronomy.com/news/2020/09/astronomers-spy-phosphine-on-venus-a-potential-sign-of-lifeAsteroid (minor planets, especially of the inner Solar System.
