Cheap Astronomy is hosting the 85th Carnival of Space, just in time to goof off on a weekend. Remember, it’s the International Year of Astronomy now, so you have to read an astronomy article every day. It’s in the intertoobs bylaws.
And somehow I forgot to post about last week’s carnival at Next Big Future. So that’s double your astrogoodness for the week!
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.

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

Not only can you read an astronomy article every day, but now you can get a daily dose of astronomy podcasting by subscribing to the 365 Days of Astronomy podcast series.
Perhaps some of you BA Blogees will record something…
There are lots of days still available in the year.
