Since I don’t know when I’ll get a chance to write something today (goof off), here are some links for your reading pleasure:

I Like Toast  I recognize this conversation.  We have it every day with Sammi, Lisa, Rolfe, Nala, and occasionally Boo.  Usually it revolves around cheese.

A Review of From Eden To Exile, Chapter 2:Noah’s Ark  An excellent overview of the history behind the Noah’s Ark myth.  Also note the new URL for the Northstate Science site.

Bigelow Aerospace Wants Atlas 5 Rockets for New Space Station  As I mentioned in 2003 and 2004, I’m becoming more and more convinced that advances in human spaceflight will happen because private industry is driving the effort, not NASA.  Oh, and I will accept a trip as a gift if you want to pool your money.

And finally:

Coming Feb. 20: Total Eclipse of the Moon   I think I’ll be in Vegas, so maybe I’ll head out to the desert to take a look.  It should be pretty impressive.
