Night's Nebula was created to satisfy a long time desire to have my own little niche in the cosmic web . The stars have always held a special fascination for me. As a young child, discovering I could not just simply reach out and touch them, I have wanted to travel through space to distant stars and discover new worlds. Star Trek was a huge influence on that long ago, about to turn 6 year old the day after September 8, 1966 (pilot episode) and has been ever since. The rest of the credit goes to the 4077th, oddly enough. Now, I have a place I can record it all. Yes, this is just a really fancy blog where other people are welcome to share in "things that interest me" (and them). This is, after all, my little nebula that I am choosing to share with the rest of the universe.
Why call it Night's Nebula? The answer is a bit convoluted. I've been a resident of Second Life since 2004. The last name of the account that became my main was Night and I had this idea to create an image of the Helix Nebula as a pair of wolf's eyes, which I still plan to do and perhaps use it as a background or create a new logo with it. I may even use it as an avatar. Anyway, that's when the name Night's Nebula gibbs smacked me. It's one of my SL names inspired by my normal username. One I have been using for 25 years now and has been my "nickname" since I was a child.

P.S. I am open to suggestions and if the topic warrants, in my opinion, a place of its own, I will be happy to set it up. You can post your suggestions in Feedback. I might even put it up for a vote by the residents. Who knows! The stars are the limits!
