Everyone said I was daft to build a Babylon station, but I built it all the same, just to show them. It blew up. So I built a 2nd and a 3rd. Those blew up. So I built a 4th. That one vanished. But the 5th one stayed! And that's what you're going to get, Delenn, the strongest station in neutral space

A still from the Babylon 5 pilot, a 90's science fiction show that I'm obsessing over at the moment. Anyway, Commander Sinclair, a human in a military uniform, is in a garden with Ambassador Delenn, an alien who is bald with an elaborate bony structure on her head where hair would normally be. Delenn has just asked Sinclair why humans built a Babylon 5 after the first four Babylon stations all ended in disaster

Anyway on a happier note I think it’s fascinating that you can kind see some remnants of trans-Delenn in how they did Mira Furlan’s makeup in the pilot.

Poor Michael O’Hare. I saw him on a panel at Lunacon that had to have been pretty close to if not actually his final public appearance— I remember thinking that he seemed pretty slack and almost sedated and in retrospect he probably was. RIP. 😢

“Delenn is beautiful, she’s rich, she’s got huuuuge influence on the Grey Council.”

I have been making this joke since the 90s! I knew it had legs!

Sorry for the potato quality screen cap. Every frame of the pilot looks like it was filmed on a camcorder and accidentially taped over a 12-year-old's dance recital

Let’s not bicker and argue over who conquered who.
