Carnival of Space 57

Oops! I almost forgot: the 57th Carnival of Space is up at Out of the Cradle. It features women of space news, and I noted a couple I know, like Emily (duh) but also my new acquaintance Cassie, whom I met at Yuri’s night a few weeks ago. Cool.

As always, thanks for the link. Through it I found the incredible “Starts With a Bang” site…not only is it a great site generally, the explanation of angular momentum that CoS17 highlighted is one of the best I have ever seen for middle or high school students.

"Reading this book is like getting punched in the face by Carl Sagan. Frightening, but oddly exhilarating."
