*Stark Trek Crew & NASA*

Gene Roddenberry, Leonard Nimoy, Deforrest Kelley, and most of the original cast were present to give the first space Shuttle, sweetly named "Enterprise" a send off. They smiled as Alexander Courage's Star Trek musical score blasted on nearby loudspeakers. The year was 1976.

The Mayan Calander ends on December 21st 2012, so many believe that the world is going to end on that date. Alot of the theories on how the world could end involve threats coming from outer space, so in the link is an explaination of the Mayan Calender, as well as links to all of the end of the world scenerios, and explainations of each. Pretty cooool. Enjoy!

Canadian Fireball!




Hello space enthusiasts, here's ACTUAL VIDEO of the recent Canadian meteorite, captured luckily by a police officer's dashboard cam! This was on APOD (Astronomy Picture of The Day) a few weeks back, around the time when the meteorite hit. Pretty fascinating video, thought I'd share it with everyone.

Update from Canada Meteorite


Among the many fragments being collected from the November 20th meteorite (which scientists think weighed about 10 tons), a head-sized chunk of the meteorite was found, weighing in at 28 pounds!

Fireball in Colorado

Another meteor busted through the atmosphere, this time in Colorado, and created a fireball that outshone the moon by 100 times! Link has the article, plus a video.

Cosmic Candy...The Candy of the Future


Just some trippy space-themed candy.

Space Beer


The Russian Academy of Science, a Japanese university, and beer maker Sapporo have all helped bring to earth "Space Barley," a beer made from barley grown on the International Space Station in 2006. The beer is not for sale (they only made 100 liters) but Sapporo is offering tasting to push the beer. Another good reason to visit Japan!
