Not sure if it's Santa or Father Time (his watch says midnight, which points to the latter). Either way, С Новым Годом to you all.
The pic is a Soviet era Christmas card, reprinted by Roscomos, the Russian space agency. I learned about them from always excellent Space Gizmo. More cards are here.
I'll post in the new year. I really will.

Ha, fun. And С Новым Годом right back at you!
There you are! I was just about to write and see if all is well.
I LOVE Soviet space kitsch!
Onward to 2011...
And here I was thinking it was a greeting in Martian:

You as well, Hil. Hope you had an excellent Christmas.
I am well, Fresca, and enjoyed not mentally transcribing blog posts in my mind as I lived my life, but merely living. Thank you so much for such a colorful card. The page about Dr. Oort is taped on the wall of my office.

"mentally transcribing blog posts"
Heh.
I do that too. That's a major reason I have to stop blogging when I'm trying to write something serious for work--my brain keeps transcribing!
I'm tickled to think of Dr. Oort on your wall.
Happy New Year!
I love the sun photo you posted today.
