Niel deGrasse Tyson does an Ask Me Anything session on Reddit

Some interesting insights.
QuoteSociety needs to see science not as a luxury of funding but as a fundamental activity that drives enlightenment, economics, and security.

The Moon as You've Never Seen It Before


You're looking at a brand new view of the lunar farside, as never seen before. The team from the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter has released the first version of a topographic map of nearly the entire Moon, from data from the Wide Angle Camera (WAC) on the spacecraft...

Mountains of Madness was the first thing that ran through my mind as well when I read that.

The Case for Pluto's Oceans.



"Finding an ocean on Pluto would make the case for other Kuiper Belt oceans quite strong, especially on larger objects like Eris. A case for astrobiology in this extreme environment seems remote indeed, but the presence of an ocean here would remind us that the Kuiper Belt, which may contain a thousand dwarf planets or more, is likely to deal us surprises at every turn."

Wow! I love this kind of stuff! If life can survive five miles down in our own oceans, who knows? (Buy stocks in the newly formed SolarShark Interplanetary Fishing Corporation TM now!)
