Cassini Returns Amazing New Imagery from Saturn 118
SeaDour writes "The Cassini spacecraft has recently entered a highly-inclined orbit around Saturn, revealing some never-before-seen images of the planet's ring system as seen from above and below the planet. 'Sailing high above Saturn and seeing the rings spread out beneath us like a giant, copper medallion is like exploring an alien world we've never seen before. It just doesn't look like the same place. It's so utterly breath-taking, it almost gives you vertigo.' The spacecraft will eventually return to its standard orbit parallel to the ring plane in late June."

The Fun Guy writes: "Recent microfossil evidence casts fresh doubt as to whether an asteroid wiped out the dinosaurs. Prof. Gerta Keller of Princeton University: "We now have evidence that the Chicxulub impact occurred about 300,000 years before the end of the Cretaceous and thus didn't cause the mass extinction and, in fact, didn't cause any species to go extinct." These findings were presented during the October 2006 meeting of the Geological Society of America."

Submission + - Caffeinated Doughnuts
Dotnaught writes: "Dr. Robert Bohannon has developed what may be the perfect food: caffeinated doughnuts. He has reportedly approached companies such as Krispy Kreme, Dunkin' Donuts and Starbucks in an effort to convince them to carry his pick-me-up pastries. Whether Bohannon's invention will prove beneficial or detrimental to law enforcement remains to be seen. He has also created caffeinated bagels, but somehow that just seems wrong."
