Surprise!

Cassini has discovered another of Saturn's moons with an atmosphere.

An intriguing theory about this moon being the source of one of Saturns rings is put forth.

What was that quote? "Not only is the universe stranger than we imagine, it is stranger than we can imagine."

Thanks to Fred at the Eternal Golden Braid for the pointer.

Another legend joins the web

Wally Schirra, one of the original seven American astronauts, now has a web site detailing his career from military test pilot to astronaut and since. Schirra is a dedicated practical joker, and the site includes a link to his most famous "gotchas" that he pulled on his fellow astronauts. Pictures, video, lots of information. Nifty.
