On the right side of my blog you will see a small image of a woman in a state of repose on a sand dune. She is the cover model for the Skepchick calendar, and if you click on her you’ll go to Rebecca’s site, where she is selling these calendars to raise money for skepticism. Rebecca also put together a YouTube clip previewing the calendar as well.
I assume she’s doing the same thing for the Skepdudes, right, Rebecca?
If you went to BadAstronomy.com and found yourself here, never fear: the BA Blog has moved to its new home at Discover Blogs. The original BA site (with the Moon Hoax debunking and all that) is still online, too.
Phil Plait, the creator of Bad Astronomy, is an astronomer, lecturer, and author. After ten years working on Hubble Space Telescope and six more working on astronomy education, he struck out on his own as a writer. He has written two books, dozens of magazine articles, and 12 bazillion blog articles. He is a skeptic, and fights misuses of science as well as praising the wonder of real science.
