August 11, 2010 Humor

Another busy day, another moment stolen away to feed my brain.

August 4, 2010 Science

Sure enough, Nasa Space Weather delivers.  On August 2nd, they noticed a giant “coronal mass ejection.”  Yesterday, on August 3rd, they confirmed that Europe was experiencing the first hit, but thankfully with no more impact than beautiful aurorae.
