Also on the topic of voting, Puerto Rico held a referendum concerning their status as a territory. For the first time, it seems that the majority of Puerto Ricans actually support becoming the 51st state of the United States of America. The next step is for the Puerto Rican government to submit an application for statehood to the United States congress.
In recognition of this event, here is my not-so-elegant design for a 51-star US flag

Also, that looks like a very dangerous road, where is it?
Pretty much everywhere outside the cities. Most of these aren't federal routes and they're not in very good condition, just an asphalt surface with markings on it.

Not federal routes? Then who maintains them?

I guess USA is going to pay off their huge debts from the revenue they will get from map and flag sales.
“I think it very likely – in fact inevitable – that biological intelligence is only a transitory phenomenon, a fleeting phase in the evolution of the universe, If we ever encounter extraterrestrial intelligence, I believe it is overwhelmingly likely to be post-biological in nature.” — Paul Davies
Just a reminder that any interstellar civilization will no longer be biological in nature.
Not only are machines better able to endure extended exposure to the conditions of space, but they have the potential to develop intelligence far beyond the capacity of the human brain.

It's in Russia. Almost all our regional roads looks like this one, only two-lane and without fence between opposite lanes. Road laws violation when overtaking on the opposite lane is most common cause of deadly accidents on regional roads.

The Totally off-topic thread would have worked. Anything not related to SpaceEngine and that doesn't have its own thread should be posted there. If it's something that generates a lot of discussion, then it can be split into its own thread. But if everyone creates a new thread for every small topic, then the forum will have so many little threads that no one will be able to find anything.
