The 10 year old inside me is so incredibly excited. My actual 10 year old self was obsessed with tombs and ancient Egypt. I remember a whole summer I couldn't stop thinking about and talking about the "Sphinx on the face of Mars". Thankfully these days I have friends, but I have been rewatching all of Stargate so this is very timely.

- toast0 9d agoI've also been watching Stargate (on season 2), it's fun getting to know the Vancouver area as Jack and friends explore the galaxy but always end up in the PNW ;) Just found this list of filming locatiobs. https://rdanderson.com/stargate/locations/index.htm https://rdanderson.com/stargate/locations/index.htm
- jamwise 8d agoYeah very cool filming locations. Also the university they filmed the Tollana planet is where they filmed certain scenes from the new Battlestar Galactica.

- drakenot 9d agoDo you watch the movie as a part of this?
- jamwise 8d agoLoved the movie as a kid, I watched the series also, and am currently rewatching it.
- SapporoChris 9d agoI don't understand the fond reminiscing. The face on Mars is an optical illusion, an example of Pareidolia. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pareidolia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pareidolia I sincerely hope that no one believes there are monuments or any such constructions on Mars.
- cortesoft 9d agoYou don’t understand fondly reminiscing about when the world seemed more magical? It has nothing to do with the truth of it, it has everything to do with how it felt.
- SapporoChris 9d agoNo, I don't. Whenever I learn I've spent time believing something that turned out to be false I always feel a sense of regret.

- arnavpraneet 8d agoI empathize with this more so than the original opposite, more of a lamentation for how stupid I was
- somenameforme 8d agoThis reminds me of when I coach a kid in chess and the first thing I ask them is what they want to achieve. A fairly common response is to not lose. At first that doesn't sound unreasonable, yet the goal there doesn't require any coaching at all - simply only play terrible players! So too with knowledge. The path to never believing anything false would be to simply minimize the amount you learn, and certainly to avoid learning anything developed within the past century or so. It's not a great perspective for self betterment. Learning from one's mistakes is the path to improvement in most of every domain. Mistakes and falsehoods are nothing to regret. If anything, they're something to rejoice over. It's only the fool that believes all he thinks must be true.
- tehlike 9d agoStargate origins was not a great series, but talks about egypt and stargate :D
