Have you started finding cool photos and want to share? Are you at the spitballing stage and want some outside perspectives to nudge you towards one idea or the other? Just excited about what you're making and want to talk about it? Post here! This thread is for sharing the energy you've got for your writing, and in turn getting energized by seeing the cool stuff other people make.

Hello Spacejammers! I'm looking to create an expansion to my GM-less narrative cosmonaut TTRPG, Pale Dot, with new cosmic locations to visit inspired by NASA images. The locations, called "Cosmic Objects", are generally vague but evocative descriptions with a list of similarly vague but evocative prompts to inspire roleplay scenes, all of which are up to the players to interpret the meaning of.

If anybody else is interested in potentially using my game as a base for their creations lemme know and I'll send you a copy!

Finally decided that I wanted to make something for ICON since I'm gonna be running a 3–4-shot pretty soon here (so I suspect my adventure will look slightly more like prep notes than anything), and with that eye I was caught by https://www.flickr.com/photos/nasawebbtelescope/53395722120/ and https://www.flickr.com/photos/nasawebbtelescope/53361000972/ from JWST's Flickr. I'm thinking maybe the first is some kind of spirit in the plot, while the second is some kind of landscape shot or environmental feature? We'll see what I come up with once I start getting story ideas & plotting out encounters!

When I want to do a sci-fi one-shot, my go-to is Liminal Void, which takes place in our solar system. So this one of Europa fits the bill:

Europa from Galileo

(Modified from https://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap240329.html - funny enough, it looks more like original photography of Europa after the modification.)
