Dogs in Space is a 1986 Australian drama movie about Melbourne's little band scene in 1978.
It was directed by Richard Lowenstein.
It starred Michael Hutchence as Sam, a drugged dazed singer of a band named Dogs in Space.
The story was from Lowenstein's personal experience of living in a shared house in Melbourne in the late 1970s.
Lowenstein had already worked with Michael Hutchence making rock videos.
He also produced video clips for songs from the INXS album The Swing.
He wrote the lead role of Sam with Michael Hutchence in mind.
The character Sam is about a real member of a punk rock band that Lowenstein had lived with in the 1970s.
The house in the movie was the one they had shared.
It was rented from its new owners and changed back to its original condition for the movie.
The cost for the deconstruction of the house was part of the movie's budget.
Copies of Dogs in Space are being preserved by the National Film and Sound Archive in Canberra.

A group of young music fans share a house in the inner Melbourne suburb of Richmond.
It is not too far away from the city to be an active part of the music scene.
Sam and Tim are members of a band named Dogs in Space.
They share the house with a group of social misfits and quite troubled young people.
These include Sam's girlfriend Anna and a really smart university student, Luchio.
He is actually trying to study for exams even in the confusion of the house.
There is also a nameless teenager, who is just called The Girl.
She comes and goes; sometimes sleeping over.
The scenes cover the day-to-day lives of the characters, mainly the sexual relationship between Sam and Anna.
There are many party scenes with live music and drug use.
During quiet times, the housemates move the television outdoors into the street to watch it on sofas and eat junk food and drink beer.
The group makes frequent trips to a convenience store to restock.
Footage of Sputnik 2 is intermittently seen in the movie (in tribute to the title: "Dogs in Space").
The footage mostly shows Laika, the first Soviet Union dog in space.
These scenes can also be seen in the background when the television is playing.
There are trips to many local pubs for live punk music.
In the end, the group's dangerous lifestyle costs a life of a loved one.
Anna dies from a heroin overdose.
There was a punk rock soundtrack album released with the following songs and artists.
The album and the later CD are both out of print.

The Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty (INF) is a 1987 agreement between the United States and the Soviet Union.
It was signed in Washington, D.C. by U.S. President Ronald Reagan and General Secretary Mikhail Gorbachev on December 8, 1987.
It was ratified by the United States Senate on May 27, 1988 and came into force on June 1 of that year.
The treaty is formally titled The Treaty Between the United States of America and the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics on the Elimination of Their Intermediate-Range and Shorter-Range Missiles.
In 2012 the United States complained about Russian treaty violations.
The two systems that appear to be violations are the R-500, a cruise missile using the 9K720 Iskander launcher, and a short ranged ICBM.
In July 2014, the United States formally notified Russia of the breach, while Russian officials called the treaty unsuitable for Russia and unfair because other countries in Asia had such weapons.
Russia later attacked the United States by calling American drones a "violation of the treaty".
On October 20, 2018, citing Russian non-compliance, US President Donald Trump announced that he was withdrawing the US from the treaty.
The U.S. formally suspended the treaty on February 1, 2019, as did Russia the following day.

David Hume summarized this trilemma as follows:
If God is unable to prevent evil, then he is not all-powerful.
If God is not willing to prevent evil, then he is not all-good.
If God is both willing and able to prevent evil, then why does it exist?

Plants and animals have different reasons for being different colours, and their colours serve certain purposes.
Chlorophyll in plants is a green pigment used to collect light energy to be used in photosynthesis.
Many colours in plants and animals work to change the behaviour of animals.
For example, some plants and animals use camouflage, warning or attraction (in order to help pollination or to find a sexual partner.
Pigments are different from structural colours.
Pigments look the same from all angles.
Structural color is the result of reflection or iridescence.
Structular colour means that certain creatures appear from different angles to have different colours.
For example, the wings of a butterfly look different from some angles compared to others.

Structural coloration is a coloring that results from the special structure of the surface.
Sometimes structural coloration is combined with pigments: for example, peacock tail feathers are pigmented brown, but their structure makes them appear blue, turquoise, and green, and often they appear iridescent.
English scientists Robert Hooke and Isaac Newton were the first who observed structural coloration.
Thomas Young described its principle a century later and called it wave interference.
Young described iridescence as the result of interference between reflections from several surfaces of thin films, combined with refraction as light enters and leaves such films.
The geometry then determines that at certain angles, the light reflected from both surfaces adds (interferes constructively), while at other angles, the light subtracts.
As a result, different colors appear at different angles.
