And it’s been way too long since I posted something from Astronomy Picture of the Day (I added the labels of the moons on Friday before I got too sick to even look at my screen):

Moons in Transit

Random Quote

In the space of one hundred and seventy-six years the Mississippi has shortened itself two hundred and forty-two miles. Therefore ... in the Old Silurian Period the Mississippi River was upward of one million three hundred thousand miles long ... seven hundred and forty-two years from now the Mississippi will be only a mile and three-quarters long. ... There is something fascinating about science. One gets such wholesome returns of conjecture out of such a trifling investment of fact.
