Another cool development.

Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory has posted images from the world's deepest Electrical Resistance Tomography (ERT) system. It is used to develop time-lapse images of the injection of CO2 at depths over 10,000 feet in an oil and gas field in Cranfield, Miss. Be sure to watch the movie.

An asteroid fly-by to be streamed live to the internet. Impressed?

I do not know which amazes me more, that we live in an era where we can sit at home in a comfortable chair and watch a live fly-by of a distant asteroid on our wireless ipads, or that we accept this as nothing special. There are truly wonderful times.
