The way to love someone
is to lightly run your finger over that person's soul
until you find a crack,
and then gently pour your love into that crack.

SPACE!

 


Eclipse on 25th November if you're in Cape Town ...

If you have already obtained a calendar for 2012, be sure to put a big red circle around 20 May 2012 
That is the date of the next solar eclipse and it promises to be a spectacular event.  It will be an annular ("ring") eclipse that will be visible from parts of eight western U.S. states during the late-afternoon hours. 
For those living in parts of New Mexico and west Texas, the setting sun will be transformed into a blazing "ring of fire," in some cases lasting for more than five minutes. And across much of North America, the exception being those near and along the Atlantic Coast, the sun will appear partially eclipsed.
Needless to say, in contrast to next Friday, next May's solar eclipse will have a huge viewing audience.

And they have a lot of info on beginners telescopes too ... They are not all crazy expensive.
