This Time Magazine photo gallery is just very cool. I guess I had never really thought of x-ray images as creating very interesting and beautiful works of art.

Actually I am of the opinion that pretty much any Cephalopods are awesome.

A young planet far out in space

I know I’ve probably said it before, but I am always amazed at the age of things in the universe. Our Sun itself has probably been burning for more than four and a half billion years. So when scientists discover a young forming planet that is possibly only a few hundred years old it is considered quite a find. The National Geographic articlethat discusses this discovery is fascinating. observing this young protoplanet may lead to a lot of knowledge about how our own solar system was created billions of years ago. Very cool stuff.
