Last time 2 Space Shuttles on launch pads together

It's hard to believe it's been 20+ years that Nasa's been using the shuttle.    But all good things must come to an end.     And though most people will always think of either the Challenger or Columbia disasters first,  I think it's important to think of all the ways in which we benefited from these aging marvels of achievement.

Here, here to the remaining SST's for so many years of hard work!!

Dell/Alienware Android Phone (Google)

Check this puppy out. Since Dell bought Alienware, they've got a great platform with which to kill the gaming market now. And this phone marks another attempt at the mobile phone market by the big D. It's a lil bulky for my tastes....but cool start to Google's new mobile OS here in the states.

And also this CRAZY, HUGE, wrap-around monitor.

Oh and if you're into Astronomy......don't forget to look for the Falling Satellite tomorrow night around dusk. It'll be moving from the "SOUTH-WEST to NORTH-EAST" if you're in N/A. Head over to the Heaven's Above, orbital tracking site to find out you're best chances to see it. (scroll down to bottom of page for "your location" link)

Do YOU believe?

Did u happen to catch the recent UFO segment on Larry King Live? After the recent sightings in Stephenville, TX? Overlooking the production factor, (and the ridiculous amount of commercials) , i thought it was very interesting. Especially the way our Air Force initially said there weren't any training exercises, or other military craft in the area at that time.......but once a few sloppy cell phone clips, and pictures were released, they "confessed" to making a mistake and said they had 10 F16's flying that night. ??? I don't think so.

As a former AF officer put it, "in my 26 yrs in the service, i don't recall the Air Force EVER putting out a press release, stating they made a mistake"

You tube has a few clips from that night's episode.

And while searching, i came across this headline: "Asteroid TU24 has NASA concerned"

ScienceDaily (Jan. 24, 2008) — Scientists are monitoring the orbit of asteroid 2007 TU24. The asteroid, believed to be between 150 meters (500 feet) and 610 meters (2,000 feet) in size, is expected to fly past Earth on Jan. 29, with its closest distance being about 537,500 kilometers (334,000 miles) at 12:33 a.m. Pacific time (3:33 a.m. Eastern time). It should be observable that night by amateur astronomers with modest-sized telescopes.
