I'm feeling increasingly pessimistic about the future of manned space flight, but I can't let /July 20, \d{3}9/ pass without a note. So, yeah, 40 years. I wish my species still dreamed big.
In less depressing news, tonight's D&D game was pretty fun, for all that I had 2 hours in which to throw it together. I gave them a magic crown which tells them if there are any goblins around which would find them sexually attractive. (What do you think magic would be used for, most the time?) Then there was a combat sequence in a mine field for which they had a map, but it was backwards because the mole-people who made it were looking at the surface from below. Favorite moment: stunning the mage while he was levitating 20 feet in the air, thus canceling some very powerful ongoing damage he had going as well as doing enough damage from the fall to get him making death saves. Several players and creatures were also pushed/pulled into landmines, which was fun.
