Python, Povray anhd the Universe

Got to love Mark Shuttleworth: The South African entrepreneur and space explorer: """ He was a member of the crew of Soyuz TM-34, launched from Baikonur in Kazakhstan and docked with the International Space Station two days later. """ His foundation helps finance Python education related projects: http://www.markshuttleworth.com/bounty.html All well-known, I think, within the Python community at this point. But... Every few months I check into www.povray.org for a look see as to what is happening in the Povray world. On a whim, did so this morning, Might have otherwise passed over this, had I not began to understand who Shuttleworth is. See: "POV-Ray at the International Space Station" http://www.povray.org/news/index.php#79 This "Reach for the Stars" rendering: http://www.povray.org/posters/ was not designed by Shuttleworth, but was rendered by him while in orbit. Those of us who are fans of Python and povray and opensource technology and education and the intersection of all these things have to be intrigued by this guys focus. Art
