    I recently started to read Perry Rhodan, which is an ongoing (german) science fiction series that started in 1961: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perry_Rhodan

    They release a new novella each week, and have not missed a week since 1961.

    In the 80ies, they started to combine novellas into books (Silberbände), which i started to read. I currently am reading book #8.
    It is not the moat sophisticated science fiction, but I really enjoy it for what it is. And it is an almost endless endeavour, so I am not running out of books to read.

    However, he did the crafting not by himself, that was the actual host from the original english art attack, but you only ever saw his hands

    Starting a month or so ago, the german host uploaded some videos where he himself did make something: https://youtu.be/jdbG6CZ5vMo

    Very nostalgic!

    It hosts a 17th century ship - a really big ship - in its own atmosphere so it won't deteriorate further.

    Thank you for the Nansen recommendation! Sounds right up my alley. I have already read Into Thin Air and can also recommend it.

    A great book. Even though I knew how it ended, it was still thrilling to read. Any suggestions on similar books?

    I really like an English breakfast once in a while. (Or am Irish breakfast!) Not very healthy, but very good! Also, scones and clotted cream are very good!
