Cyberspace is all connected, as is, maybe, everything. A lovely esoteric field of exploration through the relationships, there are people who have made some lovely tools to visualise these relationships. I/O/D 4 Surf 3D

So there’s a whole wealth of available resources to see our planet and the solar system out there – either online or as a downloadable application. These programmes allow you to track hurricanes, cloud cover, global temperature, zoom in to varying degrees etc. The Earth and Moon viewer is webbased and has some interesting composites Read more about Exploring the earth and space[…]

Apparently the authors of this thing succeeded in getting one of their random papers accepted for a conference.. http://www.pdos.csail.mit.edu/scigen/

Well, they were doing it by looking at how light bends and stuff before, because large mass objects (such as planets) have a gravitational pull (allthough that theory is in doubt considering the flight path of the discovery spacecraft). Anyhow, now they can detect planets and maybe the wind conditions on them by using infrared Read more about New way to detect planets[…]

The Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) in New York apparently creates fireballs (whee!) that have the characteristics of a Black Hole, with particles disappearing into the fireball’s core and reappearing as thermal radiation. Funky. I’ll take two to go. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/sci/tech/4357613.stm

Yup, as well as being good against cancer, another reason to celebrate this noble drink – it doesn’t, in fact, get you fat!

Well, we have the Darwin Awards, but this lesser known honour is bestowed on those who have carried out some seriously improbable research. Previous winners: The first case of homosexual necrophilia in the mallard Anas platyrhynchos. Well done, that man!
