Viktor

Heinz 57

Let me introduce myself. My name is Viktor Nonong Medrano. I like astronomy and science fiction, as I like shows like Star Trekand Japanese anime. I have read a lot of books in this genre. I like constructed languages, and I make them myself. I am a hobbyist of LojbanEsperanto, and Interlingua. I tend towards ScienceBuddhism, and Animism. I was born in the Philippines, lived in Japan for a while, and now live in Canada. I am a Heinz 57, being very multiracial. I am a xenophile, as I love strange cultures and languages of strange lands.
My interests span the years. I have been learning about astronomy since I was a child. My dream occupation has been to become an Astrobiologist or Exobiologist, studying life beyond this Earth. My real occupation has been as a Software Writer, as I learned about different artificial languages to manipulate computers. The body is hardware, and the mind is software.
I have varied favourite foods. My favourite ice cream flavours are Tiger Tail, Japanese Black Sesame, Italian Spumoni, Mint, and Philippine Purple Yam. Of fruits, I adore young coconut meat and the tropical rose apple, which is not an apple at all. I like practically all seafood. I like Kaya jam and Bandung rose milk from Southeast Asia. I like varied jelly food, like nata de coco, Jell-O, agar-agar, grass jelly, sago, tapioca, konnyaku, jellyfish, tōfuAloe vera, mung bean jelly, gummy cola bottles, almond jelly, lokum, water chestnut cake, sea cucumber, mushroom, longan, lychee, rambutan, et cetera.
I like many anime shows from Japan. Some of my really creative favourites include Vampire KnightGargantia on the Verdurous PlanetNo. 6Mushi-ShiNaruto ShippūdenKemono no Sōja ErinMoribito: Guardian of the SpiritThe Mystic Archives of DantalianGalaxy Express 999Xam'd: Lost MemoriesFate/ZeroLevel ELa storia della Arcana FamigliaPolar Bear CafeYumeiro PâtissièreGintamaMaoyū Maō YūshaAoi HanaNokto de la Galaksia FervojoMononokeShelterAkiraSirius the JaegerViolet EvergardenAttack on TitanCarole & Tuesdayet cetera.
News items I follow are about space exploration. I like knowing about the new data including pictures from robot probes in outer space and from crewed flights, even better. I marvel over the turbulent cloud storms over Jupiter. The glimmering icy mountains on Pluto's landscape astonish me. The dunes near methane lakes and rivers on Titan bewilder me. As stars and planets are countless as the sand grains on a beach, I opine that it is mathematically improbable that only the Earth would shelter life. May the Force be with you!

The Chessmen of Mars


I saw this book The Chessmen of Mars with exactly that cover when I was a child in the Philippines.  It was at a bookstore in Metro Manila.  Then began my growing fascination with sci-fi.

Astronomy Fan and Desert Worlds

Why am I so fascinated with astronomy?  I know it's unlikely I ever will set foot outside of Earth.  And I know most planets and moons out there are hot and cold deserts.  Yet, I like deserts.  I live here on Lulu Island, which is a desert.  There are living, even habitable, worlds out there, exoplanetists know.  My imagination compensates for unsatiated reality.
