Copyright recognition is silly, because it's obvious I hold no rights to images from motion pictures, LIFE magazine, or the Smithsonian. I do make every effort to credit sources and illustrators, because it just seems right. However, all text here is "copyright Blue Electric Room" unless otherwise noted. Some posts are true facts about the world, other posts describe the world as it might have been if I were in charge. Please include any text, captions, and credits if you reblog.

50 years ago this week, Ranger 4, a spacecraft designed to transmit pictures of the lunar surface, crashed on the dark side of the moon. The Soviets, who a year earlier had put a man in orbit, responded with glee. NASA responded with “Dang.”
