THE CONE NEBULA is all ICE CREAM FREE, BUT STILL BEAUTIFUL
Yeah, sometimes churning up the headlines for our space porn titles is difficult. Pretty much all of them can read “Nebula X is fucking beautiful!” and I’d be done with it. Being a chubby-chub, I hear “cone” I think “ice cream.” Welcome to my world.

Watch: DEPARTING EARTH as seen by NASA’S MESSENGER
Swoon! So this is what it will look like when I finally finish building my Rocket Ship. It’s taking a bit longer than expected. Do you know how many Diet Mountain Dew cans it takes to build a functioning hull? I don’t either, which is why I’m probably going to be vaporized. Eh, whatever! If I succeed, I’ll gather a glimmer that looks much like this.
NASA spots huge hole near SUN’S NORTH POLE. Size of 50 Earths. LOL.
Here is some hump-day perspective. NASA has spotted a rip-roaring coronal hole on the Earth. This son of a bitch is large. We’re talking to the tune of 50 Earth’s placed side by side. Dios mio.
The HIDDEN GALAXY shines bright LIKE A POP SONG REFERENCE
Get it? It shines bright like a pop song reference, as opposed to me directly quoting that song about shining bright like a diamond! Oh I’m so witty (and fucking stupid). This is a pretty sexy picture of IC 342 – but I’m just going to go ahead and rename it Rihannaville.
THE SOMBRERO GALAXY is the Cosmos’ Dope Hat. #CrapPostTitles
Yo! Whatever. I know that the post title is utter dreck, a salute to running out of ideas. Dismiss my nonsense, instead deciding to bask in the glory that is the Sombrero galaxy.

HUBBLE FINDS BLUE-PLANET that RAINS GLASS. Sounds rough. Count me out.
Here is a hell of a fucking find. The Hubble Telescope has uncovered a nice blue planet! We love Blue Planets, right?! Slow your roll, holmes. What if I told you that this planet also had 4,500 mile-per-hour winds? And rained glass? Yeah, I’m canceling my flight too.
NASA: Our SOLAR SYSTEM has a friggin’ TAIL.
I say goddamn! Now our solar system is yet another entity I’m in love with that has a tail. Them fucking tails are so seductive. Like, great for balancing. And sticking into input units and shit. Wait — it isn’t a literal tail?
VENUS’ SURFACE got that MOLTEN SURFACE, looks like MOLTEN CORE. WOW Reference FTL.
Hey man. So what if I was running around a mere eight (Jesus Christ what am I doing with my life?) years ago in Molten Core? It is the first thing I thought of when I glimpsed this beautiful reconstruction of Venus’ surface. Not a world of the Worlds? The Wars? The Crafting? Then drown me out as usual, and check out the real deets after the jump.
(THERE WAS) DRINKABLE WATER ON MARS according to Opportunity
Imagine sucking down a cold glass of Martian water? Well, we can do it. What’s needed for this task? Uh, well it’s a bit complicated. A time-travelling spaceship, stocked with a crew and such. Me? I’m just there to drink the water.
‘WATCH DOGS’ E3 TRAILER LEAKS EARLY. The NSA is all like YEAH WE GOT THAT.
Watch Dogs is a pretty interesting game to be dropping at E3. You know, because this week the NSA was caught pants-down. “Ohhh yeah, we have sort of been collating all your data. Nice scat porn, Caff-Pow!” And then we all meekily contemplate how we live our digital lives. Anyways, here is the early trailer for Watch Dogs, a game I’ll be buying. Soon. For PS4.
What do you think of it?
