Time Space Science: Saturnian Moon Shows Evidence Of Ammonia
http://time-space-science.blogspot.com/2009/08/saturnian-moon-shows-evidence-of.html
Saturnian Moon Shows Evidence Of Ammonia. Data collected during two close flybys of Saturn's moon Enceladus by NASA's Cassini spacecraft add more fuel to the fire about the Saturnian ice world containing sub-surface liquid water. The data collected by Cassini's Ion and Neutral Mass Spectrometer during Enceladus flybys in July and Oct. 2008, were released in the July 23 issue of the journal Nature. As many a homeowner interested in keeping their abodes spick and span know, ammonia promptly dissolves in wa...

Time Space Science: Galaxies Coming Of Age In Cosmic Blobs
http://time-space-science.blogspot.com/2009/07/galaxies-coming-of-age-in-cosmic-blobs.html
Galaxies Coming Of Age In Cosmic Blobs. The "coming of age" of galaxies and black holes has been pinpointed, thanks to new data from NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory and other telescopes. This discovery helps resolve the true nature of gigantic blobs of gas observed around very young galaxies. For ten years the secrets of the blobs had been buried from view, but now we've uncovered their power source," said James Geach of Durham University in the United Kingdom, who led the study. "Now we can settle ...

Scientists Look Beyond Earth To Understand Auroras. The eerie beauty of the northern and southern lights has evoked visions of the supernatural for centuries: foxes of fire whisking their tales, the fighting souls of dead warriors or ancestors dancing around a ceremonial fire. The English poet Sir Walter Scott in 1805 conjured up otherworldly beings when he wrote, "He knew, by the streamers that shot so bright, That spirits were riding the northern light.". Anatomy of an Aurora. Deep within the Sun, 93 m...

Time Space Science: Seas Discovered On Saturn's Moon Titan
http://time-space-science.blogspot.com/2009/06/seas-discovered-on-saturns-moon-titan.html
Seas Discovered On Saturn's Moon Titan. Instruments on NASA's Cassini spacecraft have found evidence for seas, likely filled with liquid methane or ethane, in the high northern latitudes of Saturn's moon Titan. One such feature is larger than any of the Great Lakes of North America and is about the same size as several seas on Earth. While there is no definitive proof yet that these seas contain liquid, their shape, their dark appearance in radar that indicates smoothness, and their other properties poin...

Was he just telling Filkins a nice tale that he might want to hear? How many Arab jihadis were married? How many took their wives to war with them? How many would say: "I could be shopping in Paris." Ah! Americans don't like the word "censorship" in reference to their own media, but what degree of "guidance" did he receive from his editors? Did he ever file a "story that was too hot to handle"? And to what degree is the military dependent on non-Americans to fill its ranks? As was said about Alexander We...

Time Space Science: Magnesium Detected In MESSENGER Flyby Of Mercury
http://time-space-science.blogspot.com/2009/06/magnesium-detected-in-messenger-flyby.html
Magnesium Detected In MESSENGER Flyby Of Mercury. Scientists had suspected magnesium would be present, but were surprised at its distribution and abundance, said Senior Research Associate William McClintock of CU-Boulder's Laboratory for Atmospheric and Space Physics. The discovery in the planet's wispy atmosphere, known as its exosphere, is one more clue to the mystery of the creation of the rocky, bizarre planet that resides closest to the sun. McClintock said materials escaping from Mercury's surface ...

Time Space Science: Mars May Still Be A Living Planet
http://time-space-science.blogspot.com/2009/06/mars-may-still-be-living-planet.html
Mars May Still Be A Living Planet. A team of NASA and university scientists has achieved the first definitive detection of methane in the atmosphere of Mars. This discovery indicates the planet is either biologically or geologically active. If microscopic Martian life is producing the methane, it likely resides far below the surface where it is warm enough for liquid water to exist. Liquid water is necessary for all known forms of life, as are energy sources and a supply of carbon. It is possible a geolo...
