Comments on Looking For Local Extraterrestrials
'...one day the Face of God awoke... He opened His single Eye.'- Niven and Pournelle, 1974. (Read the complete story)

"Here's how the Coalsack dark nebula looks when viewed from our system.


(The Coal Sack nebula, as seen from our system)

"The Coalsack Dark Nebula (or simply the Coalsack) is the most prominent dark nebula in the skies, easily visible to the naked eye as a dark patch silhouetted against the southern Milky Way. It was known pre-historically in the Southern Hemisphere and was observed by Vicente Yáńez Pinzón in 1499. The Coalsack is located at a distance of approximately 600 light years away from Earth, in the Crux constellation.""

"Embarrassing, but true. I prepared graphics for a book I wrote called 'The Nurse Manager's Guide to Microcomputers' using an original 128K Mac, but that was cutting edge in 1986."
