The Cake isn't a Lie

Today, cake was made in a mug at Uni! :D
Was really fun, just heap ingredients into a mug, pop it into the microwave, bam, cake! :D

Yummm :D Now to try it at home
Did some good shopping, bought some salad dressing <3 and some veggie burgers

Piece of today is The Edge by korbox

That atmosphere is so vivid and brilliant! What are they doing? Escaping to a new homeworld? Invading some peaceful remote outpost? Shipping cargo? Who knows!? But the colour paints it in a heroic light. I just love the lighting, the blue and white'ish tinge is beautiful! :D :D

Do you know the secret to getting to places quickly? Pythagoras! :P

Spaced

Crazy me had a dream about the Sun going suprenova! But, of course, the Sun is too small to go supernova, you all tell me. Yes, but I'm crazy ^_^

I was wandering the streets at night, and I see a small flash. Then another, much brighter flash. And another brighter flash. I close my eyes, but the final flash is so bright, I can see it through closed eyes!

But, of course, somehow, everything is fine that next day, after I wake up (in my dream-self of course!) and the dream continues on some random tangent, as all dreams do. You could argue "Silly DisaFear, it wasn't a supernova then, it was just some satellite asploding in the atmosphere!" but in a dream, you usually know what's going on, even if you don't know why, and I somehow knew it was a supernova!

Anyways.

A supernova, if you are wondering, is the explosion a massive star, a star that is probably 8 times or more massive than the Sun. (the line is very fine between intermediate mass stars and high mass stars)

Why does it explode?

As fusion proceeds in the star, iron accumulates in the core of the star. Iron cannot provide fusion energy. So it accumulates. And accumulates. And accumulates.

And then, suddenly, the degeneracy pressure in the core can't support it! Core collapses! Boom! Explosion occurs, leaving behind a neutron star

Something like this?

Supernova by karimfakhoury is a perfect artists example of a supernova. Explosion, check. Awesome lighting and colours, check. Chaotic, check! Debris, check. Random man getting owned, check! The amount of detail in that piece is magnificent, there's so much to take in.

But...a neutron star is not always how it ends...there is a much more evil force in the Universe...

*enter stage left, black hole*

If that extremely-extremely-dense neutron star accumulates some more mass, then the neutron degeneracy pressure can't hold it! It collapses, collapses, collapses, collapses, into a thing whose gravity is so strong that not even light can escape it!

Black Heart, Black hole by shadeforfiend shows one of those evil creatures in action. I really love the colour range on that accretion disk. Hey, black holes can be cute too :3

Until next time! Don't fall into a black hole, however interesting they are!

Adopted Sun in the Winter Storm

Finally, some sun shows up to greet the winter-laden Melbourne!
Without further ado, let me introduce Waterfall Castle Matte art by fstarno

 

The amount of detail in this piece is breath-taking, not to mention the concept of the image itself, having a castle in such a precarious place. Someone is that castle would be provided with an excellent view XD The lighting and environment casts a sort of majestic feeling, the shadows of the bridge on the water precise, the tones of the sky perfect.

Browsing other peoples works is such a good motivator for one to strive for perfection.

In other news...there is no other news!

Until next time!
