This infrared photograph was taken by the Spitzer Space Telescope. “The region pictured here is immense, with a horizontal span of 890 light-years and a vertical span of 640 light-years. Earth is located 26,000 light-years away, out in one of the Milky Way’s spiral arms. Though most of the objects seen in this image are located at the galactic center, the features above and below the galactic plane tend to lie closer to Earth.” – Click to enlarge, or click here for a super high resolution version (29MB).

9 is an animated film about the end of humanity. The machines are taking over, destroying civilization. Sound familiar? Probably. This movie, to me, is like a mix between LittleBigPlanet and Terminator. Sackboy is…John Connor.

Do yourself a favor and watch this trailer, it’s well worth the time. Not only can you get a taste of what looks like a great movie, but you get to listen to a great choice of a song, “Welcome Home”, by the band Coheed and Cambria.

This is a music video for the song “Happy Up Here”, by a band called Röyksopp. This is one awesome video; enjoy it.

Watch out for a Gorilla named Donkey, who likes throwing barrels from skyscrapers. Also look out for all the turtle shells, banana peels, and faux weapon boxes while driving. Nothing sucks more than running into a bad weapon box.

New research reveals there is hope for Mars yet. The first definitive detection of methane in the atmosphere of Mars indicates the planet is still alive, in either a biologic or geologic sense, according to a team of NASA and university scientists.

So NASA found ice and water on Mars back when the Phoenix Lander was still alive, now they find out that Mars has methane. I think it can only be a matter of time before some sort of life is discovered. I assume there is at least a microbe or a bacteria or something very small in the ice, water, or ground, and that would be considered life. I wonder if the government would actually tell the public if life was found on Mars. I doubt it. I mean, we only elect and pay the salary of all government officials, why should they tell us anything?
