RadonGOG: Three very nice ones---all three are in!

@Punished_Snake:
Are you in for all three, for two games or only for the 5.99$-game?
I'm in for a 5.99 GOG title and Chronicles of Riddick, I already own Binary Domain, thanks :)

Malleus: I've already entered, but I have to share another cool sky shot I just took. :)

This is from Battlezone.
I wonder how big Jupiter really would look like from the surface of Europa.

Neat pic!

Well, Jupiter's radius in ~70000km, Europa's orbit is ~670000, so Jupiter's angular diameter should be 2*arctan(7/67)=~12 degrees. It's hard to judge the angular diameter from a picture, since the FOV matters a lot, but I would say it's roughly accurate, maybe a little bigger than it should be.

EDIT: Although now that I'm looking at it, I realized the bands on the planet should be straight - the orbit of Gallilean moons have minimal inclination. Astronomy! :)

I do photograph the sky, since it accounts for the majority of scenery where I live. ;)
(Fairly old joke is that this is the only place where the scenery is lower.)

Binary Domain for me.
Thanks eh.

You are my mathematical hero. :)

I checked out how big the moon is. 1/2 a degree. So 24 times larger than the moon. It'd be quite a sight.
I just gotta say this is great idea for a giveaway. Burning to take part, but don't have time to look to the virtual skies now. I hope you'll continue these. +1 in the meantime.

The Whiterun one is amazing. Which mod is it?

Thank you. Seasons of Skyrim Winter Edition by AceeQ. You can find it on the nexus mods page.

Those mountain-scenes in ShadowWarrior were real highlights, weren´t they? ;)

The game has surpassed any expectation I had about it. My best buy all year. I still haven't finished it yet, and definitely going to run through it again on Ex.
