Claerith PMV "Ancient Mars" By "The Zolas"
took me about 2 weeks to finish this but I'm super happy with it
it is my first time making a PMV/Animatic so some of the scenes are a little confusing or maybe out of sync? I did my best (cause Krita was kicking my ass the entire time)
I unfortunately couldn't do subtitles (yet again Krita hates me) but oh well did my best enjoy!
I think that's everything I want to say but to sum it up Krita sucks ass, but I will still continue to use it because I make poor life decisions

5 Times Astronaut Jack Fischer Said Something in Space Was “Awesome”
Meet astronaut Jack Fischer…
He was selected as a NASA astronaut in July 2009, and is currently living and working in space for his first time. As you can imagine, going to space for the first time is both nerve-wracking and exciting. You may or may not know just how excited he actually is to be 250 miles above the Earth...To communicate his elation, he has frequently used some version of the word “awesome”.
FYI, that’s a picture of Fischer about to eat a coffee ball on station. For more on his opinion of coffee balls, check THIS out.
Let’s take a look at a few times astronaut Jack Fischer said something in space was “awesome”…
1. Burrito Smothered in Awesomesauce
Immediately following the hatch opening to the International Space Station and Jack Fischer arriving at his new orbital home, they had the chance to speak to their families. During this time, he explained to his wife what it was like to be in space...obviously using the word awesome in the process: “It’s a burrito of awesomeness, smothered in awesomesauce baby, it’s so beautiful!”
2. Awesome Views from Space
Astronauts commonly say that one of the best parts of being on space station is the view. Earth from 250 miles above can look stunning...or as Fischer puts it...awesome!
3. Tornado of Awesomeness
Fischer shared this video on his Twitter account on May 6 saying, “Sometimes, on a weekend, you have to spin about wildly…we can call it a tornado of awesomeness—because weightlessness is awesome!”
4. Awesome #SpaceSelfie
This selfie, taken during Fischer’s first-ever spacewalk is AWESOME and shows his cheesing smile from behind his spacesuit helmet. Check out a recap of Fischer’s first spacewalk, conducted on May 12, HERE.
5. Fondue Pot Bubbling Over with Awesome Sauce
In this video, also taken during Fischer’s first spacewalk on May 12, you can hear his real-time reaction to seeing the Earth from outside the space station. Describing it like a “Ginormous fondue pot, bubbling over with piping hot awesomesauce.”
Why the Burrito References?
You might be wondering where all this burrito talk comes from. In a pre-flight interview, Fischer explained that he doesn’t particularly like sweets...so for his birthday, his wife will commonly make him bean burritos smothered in green chili and cheese!
