Ganymede & Titan (or G&T as all the cool kids call it) was founded in 1999 by the boy Ian Symes. After 4 years of sporadic but high quality updates, John Hoare came on-board, bringing his own writing and web design skills to the mix and several re-designs ensued. During the first few years of this new partnership, G&T saw its finest period, with updates posted on a daily basis and site notoriety at its highest ever level.
In 2003 a new wave of sites cropped up, with a number of writers taking inspiration from G&T and forming their own sites and publishing their own opinions. Among these sites were The White Hole, Fuchal and Garbage World.
In 2004 these fans, who’d come together through meeting Ian and John through G&T and creating notable Red Dwarf sites of their own, founded the group Observation Dome. A new site was created, in addition to our individual sites, as a home for a Dwarf themed group blog. Eventually, Observation Dome branched out into film production (winning the Series VII DVD fan film competition with The Movie: Yeah, No, Yeah, No) and launched the expansive DwarfWiki, further broadening its horizons.
That brings us to now. The remaining members of Observation Dome - namely Jonathan Capps, John, Tanya Jones, Seb Patrick, Phil Reed, Austin Ross and Ian - merged their individual Dwarf sites, and all their content into an all new Ganymede & Titan. And here it is. Hope you like it.
Since the launch, we’ve been proud to welcome a new member to the G&T team, in the Northern shape of Danny Stephenson, bringing with Photoshop and animation skillz a-plenty and a quite magnificent impersonation ability.
Our remit is pretty big. We plan to provide articles, opinion pieces, reviews, news, blog style whimsy, DwarfCasts, DwarfWiki and video productions. We in no way think this is overly ambitious.
