WPA-style space mural
Today in my ongoing series of photos from my travels over the years: this WPA-style space mural outside the Spaceship Earth ride in Epcot. It's like a public artwork from an alternate universe in which space remained sexy. Link

I must be a total nerdolini. Space IS still sexy, dammit. Even at Walt Disney World :-) (I mean, come on, Mission: Space?!? Yipe.)
We're just moving away from the whole state-sponsored space religion aspect, toward a more, uh, piratical type of socio-eroticism.
Maybe within twenty years the economics and politics will all come together for real. (Because, so far as I can tell, all the necessary technology allowing humans basic access to the solar system was invented back in the nineteen-forties.)
As I was waiting for the picture to load, I wondered how one would make a murual in the style of a wireless net encryption protocol.
I'd like to say it all made sense when the pic finally loaded but now I haven't got the foggiest idea what WPA stands for in this context...
