I’m sure by now you have heard that Neil Armstrong passed away at the age of 82, due to complications in cardiovascular procedures. Described as a “reluctant hero”, the first man to take a step on any other planetary body deserves a head nod, at the very least, from the geek community across the world. Take […]

We’ve also added a few other cc-licensed pictures from photographer San Diego Shooter on top of these. Enjoy! Edit: Our gallery for […]
Last year, we scoured flickr to search for creative commons pictures of, as our own Meredith would put it, the Geek Mecca of all geek conventions: San Diego Comic Con. But this year, two amazing photographers have volonteered themselves to hunt the floor of the convention for us: Bill Watters (Bill hasn’t sent us anything […]

On July 20th, the so-called Ocean X Team will be launching their third expedition to explore and analyze an anomaly on the floor of the Baltic Sea such as they have never seen before.
