Phil Bowermaster (along with Jerry Pournelle) has some thoughts about Intelligent Design, panspermia and simulated universes. How would one go about looking for the easter eggs, if they exist? Sagan had an interesting one, in Contact
What Goes Up Must Come Down
Well, not all of it, but quite a bit. Rob Coppinger has some thoughts on the issue of ISS downmass requirements, which is something that doesn’t get as much attention as the launch payload. Once Shuttle goes away, we lose an awful lot of downmass capability, at least in theory, though I don’t think we’ve been returning all that much in it lately.
What Next?
Jeff Foust has a brief report on the next steps for Spaceport America, now that the vote is out of the way.
I’m Shocked, Shocked
Procurement “irregularities” at Marshall Space Flight Center? On the Ares program?
Why, who could ever imagine such a thing? Particularly after it got off to such a completely non-corrupt start, with no conflicts of interest at all, via Scott “Revolving Door” Horowitz.

Too Much Info
I really don’t want to know about Eliot Spitzer’s s3xual proclivities.
I’m just glad that he’s no longer any threat to become president. And the fact that New York elected him governor (and Hillary! and Chuck Schumer Senators) is one of the many reasons that I’d never want to move to that state.
The White Man’s Burden
Frank J. says that too much is expected of us. I liked this comment:
Hell yea! Why do we always have to be the “reasonable” ones; for once I just want to forget about the real issues, the constitution, and logic, and just vote for someone who looks like me, or has the same plumbing.
Hey, you can do it. Just become a Democrat.
This one, too, from a “Peg C.”:
Let’s see: Blacks vote 95% – 5% for Obama, women must be voting something like 60 – 40 for Hillary (not sure but every idiot female I work with is for Hillary), white Dem men (yes, I know – oxymoron) are voting 45 – 55 for Obama…and white men are the racists and sexists?? Only in Nora Ephron’s fantasy world…
Unfortunately, a lot of people reside in Nora Ephron’s fantasy world.
