To all SSC Station occupants

Thank you for the donations over the past year (2024), it is much appreciated. I am still trying to figure out how to migrate the forums to another community software (probably phpbb) but in the meantime I have updated the forum software to the latest version. SSC has been around a while so their is some very long time members here still using the site, thanks for making SSC home and sorry I haven't been as vocal as I should be in the forums I will try to improve my posting frequency.

Thank you again to all of the members that do take the time to donate a little, it helps keep this station functioning on the outer reaches of space.

Sweet! I keep thinking of Solaris, but I can't find a suitable acronym to match.

You know I think that maybe a popular entry along with Solaris and Apollo, maybe they should have gone for the popular vote, then again maybe not, "Mcboaty mcboatface". 🤣

I'm thinking foreign tongues too, and having lived in Catalonia... Asfodel (the Catalan spelling of Asphodel).

Advanced Solar Flare Observatory and Detector at Earth's Lagrange

 

 

Asphodel (Greek mythology) - the flower said to carpet Hades, and a favorite food of the dead.
