Scott Beale has some lovely portraits and quick video snippets from this year's Yuri's Night festivities in the Bay Area. I'm sad I missed this event! Link to photo and video roundup on Laughing Squid.

Above, Aaron Muszalski in his most fetching sputnik chapeau.

I couldn't make it to my area's party (not much of a party person anyway) so I checked out related event in Second Life.

Space nerds sure know how to greenwash the ICBM industry.

Why hype these PR events for the space-war divisions of Northrup Grumman / Boeing?
