Not expected

I never knew light could tell so much. I just took it for granted, but now I see it is like an interstellar internet telling us what everything we need to know about space objects. We can only wish our spectrometers were as cool as the NASA spectrograph telescopes they have been launching.

Venus through an infrared spectrometer

This is an interesting picture of the southern hemispher of Venus. It is in infrared wavelenghts.

If I was in charge....

I think we should build something. It doesn't matter whether it's for the benefit of the school, or just for fun. An object with circuits and actual moving things.

Maybe we could instead of showing models act out what we think. Luc could do that Steven Hawking video he loves so much :D

Pulsars are Sweet!!!

What these are are insanely fast spinning neutron stars, which are also nearly as fascinating! A cool thing is that those 'jets' of air shooting out on two sides are actually its magnetic poles. Apparently they also give of Gamma radiation. Maybe neutron stars are the 'almost made it' black holes...

I like this picture because it shows that most of the stars and debris is being sucked torwards the black hole.

This must be who ran against our current president.
