QUOTE (elakdawalla @ Oct 16 2013, 05:17 PM)  ...and that one's going straight to the blog. Absolutely amazing work with the raw JPEGs, Gordan. I just posted about it as well, with a description of some of the sights. Gordan, this was an AMAZING piece of work! And Emily, thanks for linking to it; I saw it first in your tweet and blog. I credit you, of course.  http://www.slate.com/blogs/bad_astronomy/2..._ugarkovic.html [Sorry to misspell your first name in the URL!] My favorite part (besides the steep angle lowering the usual elliptical appearance of the rings) is seeing Prometheus and Pandora to the upper right of the F ring. Astonishing, on this scale. |

Machi, those "Storm and Shadow" clips are AMAZING! Would you be willing to put them up on YouTube or Vimeo so I could embed them on my blog? I really enjoy pointing out motion and dynamic actions from space. |

QUOTE (AlexBlackwell @ Jun 26 2006, 04:20 PM) If anyone has any juice with Phil Plait, aka The Bad Astronomer, you might let him know that his blog entry contains an error regarding the IAU-approved name for S/2005 P 2. I posted a comment there a few days ago but to no avail, apparently. Alex, I missed your comnment. Sorry! But you are right, and I corrected the misspelling. The original press release that I saw had both spellings! When I looked it up, Nyx was the obvious correct spelling, ironically. But that was already in use for an asteroid, so they used Nix. |

Thanks for the kind words, folks. I was very interested to hear what the new results would be; I know a few people on WMAP, and I worked briefly on COBE before it. The results appear to conflict on some level with Bradley Schaeffer's work on using gamma-ray bursts to determine the cosmological (maybe not so) constant. I love a new field of astronomy! It's always really exciting to watch as new ideas unfold. |
