Space Swoon: Enceladus is a moon divided (by different hemispheres)
True story: I can’t spell Enceladus. I just cut and paste. Enceladus. Just cut and pasted that. Enceladus. And again! But I can appreciate this image of Enceladus (C+P), courtesy of Cassini.

Space Swoon: Pluto’s moon Charon in enhanced color
Goddamn gorgeous. Just Pluto. Not being a moon, but having a moon? Wild. Insult. Gorgeous.
NASA: Present-day Mars shows strong evidence of flowing water
We got water! On Mars! Buckle me the fuck up and send me to the TerraDome. I’m ready to help colonize Mars. Seriously though, how futzing radical is this revelation? I’ll tell you: completely futzing radical.
Watch: Another Pluto flyby courtesy of NASA and New Horizons
Hey! It’s another goddamn glorious flyby of Pluto, courtesy of the SpaceCzars at NASA and the New Horizons spacecraft.
Saturn’s Moon Enceladus is covered in a futzing Global Ocean
Saturn’s moon got some water! Oh man, does it ever have some water. Like, an entire goddamn global ocean, beneath the surface. This is really goddamn staggering and glorious. All I have beneath the surface is anxiety and perhaps a slow rolling ride of perpetual depression. Go Enceladus!
The “Oldest Galaxy Ever” has been found, raises questions about the Universe
I love when people far, far, far more intelligent than me are confounded. Like these astrophysicists who have found the “oldest galaxy ever”, with an age “only” half a billion years younger than the Universe itself. And for reasons over my head, AstroLords say this galaxy shouldn’t exist. But it does! Ha! This isn’t schadenfreude, this glee of mine. Rather, my enjoyment of these folks befuddlement is derived from a desire to see the Universe continue to confound. Defy. Be mysterious.
Watch: The Pluto System as seen by NASA’s New Horizons spacecraft
NASA has dropped another glimpse of the Pluto system, courtesy of New Horizons. Futzing 2015, yo. Just living in a year where we’re being beamed glorious quasi-footage from a goddamn Dwarf Planet way out there in the solar system. Glorious. Glorious.
