Space Tuesdays!

March 30, 2010

Just to give you Space n00bs an idea of just how small we are. Take a look at the above video. It shows the most massive known stars and planets in the known universe. When I first saw it, it blew my fucking mind.

Next up are two moons in our solar system (Jupiter’s Europa & Saturn’s Titan). Both have strong evidence that liquid water can be under their icy surfaces. Is it me, or does Europa look like one of those giant marbles you never liked playing in fear you would lose it? Anyway, interesting read from Dailygalaxy.com

Lastly, check out this untethered spacewalk of Bruce McCandless Jr. It was taken in 1984. I can’t imagine how much shit is in that spacesuit there…I’d for sure be shitting my pants.
