http://www.facebook.com/ScienceReason ... Hubblecast 22: Hubble Space Telescope Directly Observes Exoplanet Orbiting Fomalhaut.

The NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope has discovered an extrasolar planet, for the first time using direct visible-light imaging. The strange world is far-flung from its parent star, is surrounded by a colossal belt of gas and dust, and may even have rings more impressive than Saturn's.

The good thing with astronomy is that everybody can agree that it's real and that we're curious about what's out there, even though you're a believer or not...

Not a fan of violence but we could use that in order to change the mind of citizens and proof that violence is an issue of early education. And we can reverse that in so many different fields...

If all the goverments could work together and for one day a week the whole entire human race, put attention to do an effort to work together and try to open more ways to make the space and stars easy to discover, if all could supply materials and brilliants minds to develop a worldwide union,and all be part of it,our chances could be better,NO WARS NO RACE DIFFERENCES NO VIOLENCE NO RICH NO POOR NO BORDERS NO POLITICS NO GREED NO ADVANTAGE OF EDUCATION,only one purpose....
