“We are Forerunners. Guardians of all that exists. The roots of the Galaxy have grown deep under our careful tending.

There really is no fun in Islam…

You can’t even get spaced if you’re a Muslim, according to the UAE’s government: The United Arab Emirates issued a religious law Thursday banning Muslims from manning a spaceflight voyage to Mars. Starting in 2024, Dutch...
