Hitting Earth

 Readers of my cartoons often ask me about the root incident behind these sketches. Many of the ideas develop over years. I keep making notes on things that happen to me (or to others) especially when I think, it could make a great story or lessons learnt later on. Sometimes, no direct background story exists on a cartoon; like this one. The original inspiration was born due to an article about a comet coming closer to Earth. There were speculations whether it is really just a comet or maybe something else. Even though the root idea had nothing to do with software development or -testing, you can still draw your own  relation to interesting software related stories. I mean, how often have you experienced a situation where you warned about a possibly wrong decision made by either your boss, a manager, a customer or whoever, only for you to later get a confirmation in the form of "Told ya!". 

Mocking the Driver

Inspired by Tesla who "uploaded" their first car into space on Febrary 6, 2018. I haven't searched for any Tesla cartoons yet, but I guess there must be hundreds of similar ones around already. By purpose I didn't look for them, so I could fully concentrate on mine and not risk to accidentially copy someone else's idea. The picture of the moon is real and I shot it 2014 with my Russian telescope MTO 1000.
