IN SEARCH OF SPACE

Never mind all the crap that's going on down here, we've put a spaceship in orbit around Mercury...

'Science' seems to be a dirty word in this country but this really puts the hairs up on the back of my neck, we can only fully understand Earth by studying its near (and far) neighbours, those lifeless spheres which share its orbit around the sun. No, really, I do get quite excited about this stuff. It's all rather fascinating, as Prof Brian Spock might say.


In other topical news, it's Comic Relief Day... sod that, tried it once and it took ages to get the print marks off me knob.
