Happy Birthday NASA!
Today is the 50th birthday of the National Air and Space Administration. Will the administration continue to dominate space exploration over the next fifty years? Or will China, the EU, and private groups take the lead? Unless the US get's off its ass when it comes to funding scientific endevours, it seems all too likely that we'll soon be left in the dust... or perhaps the military applications of space dominance will be attractive enough to our war-mongering nation to keep the money flowing spaceward.
Here's a fun article on the same topic.

Virgin Territory
First time blogger embarking on new adventures. Will I stick with it? No other way to find out.
So, what inspired me to start a blog of my own? Well, I was reading a bit about Ken MacLeod, the author of the novel I'm currently reading and discovered that he has quite an extensive, entertaining, and educational blog (http://kenmacleod.blogspot.com), and I got to thinking that maybe if I started my own it'd help me keep track of some of my thoughts and ideas. I haven't managed to keep a journal for almost fifteen years now, so I think this is my best bet.
Okay. 'Nough for now. Must wait for the inspiration to strike... and must get some work done.
