Topic: Intergalactic Cosmic Space Thread about Stuff in Space

[OCK]

Seems to be a good bunch of people here who like Space. I like it too, have since I was young. At one point, like most, I wanted to be an Astronaught, think it was just after I found out that I couldn't be an FBI Agent, or least not one that worked on the X-Files (thanks Mrs. Gordon for ruining a Child's dream). Anyway...

What a week its been!

SpaceX, the First Commercial Re-entry Spacecraft launched today and splashed down as planned! http://www.spacex.com/updates.php

And strangely, there seems to be some giant Dark Object outside the solar system throwing things into our solar system! Daily Mail ran the story, so imagine they're claiming its an illegal immigrant planet trying to sneak into our garden to leach of the 'system'. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-1336540/Massive-dark-object-lurking-edge-solar-hurling-comets-Earth.html

Other people suggest its the mysterious Nibiru planet, the planet that's due to kill us all off in 2012. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nibiru_collision

Personally, I'm excited that something is out there, and possibly always been out there, causing so much disruption to the balance of the solar system and they're only just NOW becoming aware of it! Really wish we'd explore space more.

If you're a podcast listener, the Naked Scientists do a pretty good space podcast called "Naked Astronomy".

[Neil]

Love space-based discussion. There are so many questions. The most pertinent one for me is: are we alone? We can't be, man!

[Mike]

Nah, we can't be alone, man. It's too big.
