What would keep it liquid? Wouldn't it be frozen?

It would probably help to define what the question means by advanced technology. If it's vague, define it for yourself and go from there.

It's not really painted. The black sections are tiles designed to handle the heat of reentry. The white areas are either white tiles to reflect the heat of the sun, or white insulating fabric blankets.

Atlantis had a total of 33 flights, ranging from 4 days to 12 days. Missions included launching probes and satellites, installing modules on the new ISS, servicing Hubble, and some classified missions for the DoD.
There's another deck below the flight deck with sleeping quarters, the bathroom, and the airlock to the payload area.

By dents you mean these two things? Openings for the star trackers to support navigation.

Launches and reentry scorch the surfaces of the craft. Panels didn't get replaced unless they were too damaged.

NASA says Endeavor, a similar shuttle, cost about $1.7 billion. They're priceless now.

Endeavor is supposed to get a vertical display in a couple years attached to a fuel tank and boosters.

Reply to Do We Know Where Our Sun Was Born? by baracuda68
Our sun is believed to have formed in an open star cluster that would have long since dissipated. We do know of two stars, HD 162826 and HD 186302, that may be siblings of our sun and born to the same molecular cloud.

Didn't we already know that at the time?

Based on their observations, this won't be a threat for a couple thousand years, not 200.

Clouds of gas (mostly hydrogen) and dust. Gravity pulls the gas molecules together until it becomes hot and massive enough to trigger nuclear fusion and birth a star. These newborn stars jettison radiation which erodes the surrounding nebula, forming the iconic pillars and wispy billowing clouds.

There's a cloud that's theorized to be a shockwave from a supernova heading towards the Pillars. If correct, it was destroyed 6000 years ago.

If it's the thing I'm looking at, I think it's just a smaller cloud with gas blowing off of it. It's there on the Hubble image too so it's not really moving relative to the rest of the nebula.

It's towards the center of the Eagle Nebula which is in the tail of the constellation Serpens.

I think Amazon called it a final season. The writers have been a little coy and at one point called it a pause.
