Shuttle Discovery Approaching ISS

  • Angela Gunn has the 60-second analysis of the 2009 NASA Budget, there’s good and bad news there.
  • It is a dark day for the cool kids club, as Iran joins the space race. Booooo!!!
  • While the bad news is that the 2009 Bush budget is a disaster for HIV/AIDS research, the good news is that all the Presidential hopefuls (with a snowball’s chance in hell of getting elected) strongly support science, although this might just be a case of lowered expectations.
  • National Geographic has a photoset chronicling the dramatic Drying of the West.
  • Behold! The World’s Largest Wind Turbine.
  • Hubba. Hubba. Stillettos boost a woman’s sex life, by strengthening the muscles involved in orgasm.
