I don’t think I’ve ever fully elucidated my thoughts on the possible existence of extraterrestrial life, have I? Well, I’ll put off my Python evolution project a little longer, and write about it now — no time like the present. Assume first, as I do, that the abiogenesis (or “primordial ooze”) theory is correct. For …

I shoulda said POSSIBLE life on Mars
But not necessarily “probable”, or “strongly implied”, as my previous headline “HOLY SHIT, LIFE ON MARS?!” indicated, regardless of the fact that my blog entry itself stated it was only a possibility. I write this because, in having titled my post as I did, I’m now tangentally related to asshats who declare “life on Mars” …

HOLY SHIT, LIFE ON MARS!?

I’m sick to death of the Bush …

You are here
Phil Plait at BadAstronomy has linked to the Hubble astronomers’ latest released image, being specifically an incredible map of our galaxy. You will need highspeed to appreciate this. Yeah, yeah, I’m not posting enough. I know. I’m still going crazy. Gimme time, I’ll get back up on the horse soon enough.
