Shining brightly in the south at nightfall this month is the planet Jupiter. Unmistakable to the naked eye, it’s the closest thing our solar system has to the giant worlds that astronomers are turning up by the hundreds around other stars. Clearly, Jupiters are a garden-variety planet across the entire universe.

Yesterday I talked about using Google Earth to get a sense for the grandeur of the huge, landscape-sized machines of experimental particle-physics. But Google Earth is also perfect for touring the holy sites of the other big science, astronomy, whether you want to check out the world's biggest telescopes or explore the stars. First stop: in the "Fly To" bar, type in "Very Large Array."...

A Quiet Sun, a Cold Winter The Old Farmer’s Almanac is calling for a colder-than-normal winter. One contributing factor is sunspots—or the lack of them! This year and next, sunspot activity will be very, very light. Whenever this phenomenon has occurred in the past, the result has been a cooling influence on Earth. Solar experts believe that the Sun will remain calm for another year. See...

If there's two things that I'm really good at doing, it's being hyper AND developing crushes on people, songs and inanimate objects. That said, we've got some tunes full of 8-bit radness that speaks directly to the ADD-riddled schoolgirl underneath this beastly facade. Hyper Crush is the doo-hop, electro, deathcore super group of three shit-faced extra terrestrials known amongst the elite simply as...

Shortly after the planets inside our own solar system were formed, they began wobbling about, and roaming around, far from being caught in the well-defined orbits we see today. This chaotic motion is mainly responsible for the formation of the Moon, after Earth collided with a Mars-sized object that was circling the Sun on about the same orbit. These chaotic times have been history for billions of...
