  • But I just wanted to say, I really do like all the space stories in slashdot lately! Thanks guys.
  • Just 5 words? Wow. I guess I've always been too verbose in trying to explain the ramifications of my submissions.

  • I thought this bit was pretty cool:
    The project team hopes to accelerate research into this and other objects observed by releasing the data - 60 images totaling 250 megabytes - to the astronomical community now, rather than retaining it within the project team for additional research.

    They would have been within their rights to hang on to these data, instead they chose to release them in the hopes that someone else will be able to make sense out of them.

Living on Earth may be expensive, but it includes an annual free trip around the Sun.
