I think we can use some positive emotions in our lives and this 3:50-minute SF movie created by Erik Wernquist certainly delivers a positive view of our future in this solar system that seems to rather lack in stories coming out of Hollywood recently. Made my day again, same as movie shot by Juno probe at Jupiter. This really is a masterpiece and it must have taken tremendous amount of CGI work. Narration is by Carl Sagan reading the first chapter ("The Wanderers") from his 1994 book "The Pale Blue Dot." I wanted to describe the locations displayed in the movie, but it was too spoilery and you can easily guess most of them anyway.

  • Eventually, a colony will be set up on the Moon, and so eventually there will be "Moon Women" to rape.

  • The survivors of the onslaught will escape to Mars, especially as they'll have a pretty good idea about how to set up a colony on a foreign planetary body; that means there will be "Mars Women" to rape.

  • The survivors will escape to various asteroids (making for "Asteroid Women"), and then on to the Jovian moons (making for "Jupiter Women"), etc.

  • "My God! It's full of rape and pillaging!"

  Real women aren't stupid enough to play along with your rape fantasy.
