Awesome. The night of the perseid meteor shower when I drove outside of town away from the lights, i got a really good view of the milky way, one of the best i\'ve ever seen personally. It was a great backdrop for a meteor shower. Wish I had a nice camera :(

I thought this was pretty wild.  In the news today they had really cool new shots of the moon.  Anyway, they got to read temps from the moon\'s south pole and it is colder than pluto.  How wild is that?

It really is amazing how perfect the earth is for life.
