The new distance measurement suggests the galaxy may be falling into a crowd of about 10 other galaxies, whose gravitational tugs could explain its stellar baby boom. Posted in stars and galaxies Update: Urine Processing On Hold November 21st, 2008 Installation of a urine processor on the International Space Station has paused after a caution alarm unexpectedly tripped today. Posted in ISS, Space Shuttle Mystery of Rapid Star Birth Solved November 21st, 2008 NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope has helped astronomers solve a longstanding mystery as to why a small, nearby, isolated galaxy is pumping out new stars faster than any galaxy in our local neighborhood.

NASA, looking past the already daunting task of simply getting humans to the moon by 2020, recently started considering proposals for ways to power lunar habitats. Posted in Constellation Program Hair in book helps identify Copernicus’s remains November 21st, 2008 Researchers said Thursday they had identified the remains of Nicolaus Copernicus by comparing DNA from a skeleton and hair retrieved from one of the 16th-century astronomer’s books.
