Not to mention its elliptical orbit which can throw a calculation.

Or its menstrual cycle.



No, no I'm not I'm not classically astro-trained or inclined.

Good stuff. Even finding nothing is something. I would love us to find something and completely shift the existing paradigm.

Add Pluto to the list of "alive" worlds.


“This world is alive,” Stern said of Pluto to a packed room at the University of Alberta. “It has weather, it has hazes in the atmosphere, active geology.”

Last week Nasa released its highest resolution photos yet of the dwarf planet and its largest moon, Charon, revealing new mysteries that its spacecraft New Horizons had uncovered at the edge of the solar system.

The space agency plans to unveil new data and images on Thursday. “Every week I am floored,” Stern said. “Nasa won’t let me tell you what we’re going to tell you on Thursday. It’s amazing.”

Yep. Can't break people's world view in one big hit. Not smart enough to adapt to change that quickly.

There's a star man, waiting in the sky......

There's a star man, waiting in the sky......

There's a starman waiting in the sky
Hed like to come and meet us
But he thinks he'd blow our minds
There's a starman waiting in the sky
Hes told us not to blow it
Cause he knows it's all worthwhile
He told me:
Let the children lose it
Let the children use it
Let all the children boogie

Ancient teeth rewriting human history

HUMAN teeth discovered in southern China provide evidence that our species left the African continent up to 70,000 years earlier than prevailing theories suggest, new published research finds.

Homo sapiens reached present-day China 80,000-120,000 years ago, according to the study, which could redraw the migration map for modern humans.

“The model that is generally accepted is that modern humans left Africa only 50,000 years ago,” said Maria Martinon-Torres, a researcher at University College London and a co-author of the study.

“In this case, we are saying the Homo sapiens were out of Africa much earlier,” she told the peer-reviewed journal Nature, which published the study.

Does the intense gravity of black holes twist time and space so much that the future gets turned on its head? Some mind-bending new ideas by US astrophysicists suggest so.
