NEW HORIZONS spots Pluto’s moons Nix and Hydra.

IF PRESIDENT OBAMA is intent on the U.S. abandoning its leadership of the free world, he’s succeeding.

BUREAUCRATS! The Little Free Library crackdown. Tar and feathers seems appropriate to me....

YOU’D THINK HE’D FINALLY GET THE MESSAGE: Obama loses in court, again.

PELOSI: Netanyahu “Insults Our Intelligence”. Nonsense. With Pelosi, there’s nothing to insult.

HEH: At what point does even the cheapest whore on the block start to feel disrespected?

PAUL ALLEN'S mammoth Stratolaunch aircraft is now nearly half completed.

The aircraft is the centerpiece of Allen's Stratolaunch Systems company, which is intended to reduce the cost of space launches by carrying a launch vehicle 30,000 feet in the air slung under the mammoth plane, then igniting the rocket motors.

DUTCH NONPROFIT MARS ONE has named 100 people who will remain in the running for a one-way trip to Mars, expected to leave Earth in 2024.

I happened to catch a ‘pundit-cast’ on television the other day, where the participants were horrified to learn that people would actually volunteer for a ‘suicide mission’.

Or when Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin became the first humans to set foot on the moon in 1969 -- there was no certainty that they would be able return to Earth.

If Mars One had been a going concern 50 years ago, I might well have been one of the many volunteers.
