So, I'm cleaning up the house and I run into a book - The World of Dark Crystal by Brian Froud, first edition. Guess what I'm bringing to the con for signature? We have an art book on Labyrinth too someplace. Need to go find that as well. :)

The Rose

The spinning vortex of Saturn's north polar storm resembles a deep red rose of giant proportions surrounded by green foliage in this false-color image from NASA's Cassini spacecraft. Measurements have sized the eye at a staggering 1,250 miles (2,000 kilometers) across with cloud speeds as fast as 330 miles per hour (150 meters per second). 

This image is among the first sunlit views of Saturn's north pole captured by Cassini's imaging cameras. When the spacecraft arrived in the Saturnian system in 2004, it was northern winter and the north pole was in darkness. Saturn's north pole was last imaged under sunlight by NASA's Voyager 2 in 1981; however, the observation geometry did not allow for detailed views of the poles. Consequently, it is not known how long this newly discovered north-polar hurricane has been active.

We took some fun photos of the board game this morning. Our Kickstarter campaign just hit $6,000. You can back it at [http://RelicExpedition.com/].

We now have our stretch goals ready, and we'll be announcing them throughout the campaign as we reach certain levels of funding. When we hit 30% or $7,500 in pledges, we'll announce the first one. Back the project now to see what other treasures the jungle has in store.

Finally have the cell phone (Samsung Galaxy S3)upgraded to Jelly Bean. Had to take it to the AT&T Geek Store to do it. As Kies refused to recognize my phone once it started the upgrade process. Broken Software. Slowly getting the phone connections settled again. Slow and steady.
The Tablet needed to be reset after some memories problems. That too is slowly coming back on line.

A Milky Way Shadow at Loch Ard Gorge

Have you ever seen the Milky Way's glow create shadows? To do so, conditions need to be just right. First and foremost, the sky must be relatively clear of clouds so that the long band of the Milky Way's central disk can be seen. The surroundings must be very near to completely dark, with no bright artificial lights visible anywhere. Next, the +Moon cannot be anywhere above the horizon, or its glow will dominate the landscape. Last, the shadows can best be caught on long camera exposures. In this picture taken in Port Campbell National Park, Victoria, Australia, seven 15-second images of the ground and de-rotated sky were digitally added to bring up the needed light and detail. In the foreground lies Loch Ard Gorge, named after a ship that tragically ran aground in 1878. The two rocks pictured are the remnants of a collapsed arch and are... more »
