    I always love the photo pf the day there.

    To add something that might interests others, I love this little free (GNU GPL) planetarium software called Stellarium. Apparently, it's actually being used in some planetariums, but you can run it on PC, Mac or Linux.

    I found this site interesting, It gives you the time and location for satelite and international space station passes, specifically for your address, you then can watch them sail by. Has other stuff to .

    It's free

    This is the neatest thing I've seen yet.....a movie of the Huygens probe descending and landing on Saturn's moon Titan. Really cool stuff, packed with info too.

    Thanks for the link JH. Looking at those pictures made me pause and reflect on how minute we are in the scheme of things. I also sent the link to my son who is extremely interested in astronomy.
