Space Swoon: Behold the Frosty Slopes of Mars
Check it out, bruh! And bruhdette! It’s the fucking frosted slopes of Mars. Yeah, man. Totally wizard rager time at the ski slopes on the Red Planet! Winter break! Winter break a leg rushing to the local Space-Port, and book your ticket to the dopest ski resort in the solar system. OhwhatthefuckamIsaying? Let NASA explain it better.

Mars’ Gale Crater once had a longstanding massive lake
Fuck! Get me the time-machine-space-ship! We’re going to the goddamn Red Planet to bathe in Gale Crater. Fuck practicality and “scientific limitations.” I’m going there and you can’t stop me. So grab your swim trunks, your handy guide for Colonizing Planets, and protein bars. You might as well join me.
‘No Man’s Sky’ Portal Gameplay Trailer: Space Is The Place
I’m not exaggerating when I say my caffeine-addled, medicated brain can barely contain its excitement when watching the trailers for No Man’s Sky. The game is giving me, like, everything I’ve ever wanted in space exploration. FUCK. YES. GIMME. SHITFUCKYES. Penis-titties?
Space-Swoon: Highest-Res look at Europa’s Surface
Ooph! Ain’t this a fucking dazzling display of Europa’s surface. NASA space-wizards have done something-such beyond my means of comprehension to achieve this beauty. Assembling a variety of pictures and uh, processing and stuff. They can explain it better than I can.
Holy f**k: Rosetta’s lander has found organic molecules on comet
This is certainly with its understandable set of caveats, but fuck. Rosetta’s lander which is currently hanging out sort-of-dead on a comet has none the less come back with some fucking finds, man. Like, organic molecules up on this mofuckah’.
Saturn’s moon ‘Mimas’ may have subsurface sea
Say now! Saturn’s moon Mimas may have a subsurface sea? OUR OWN FUCKING SOLAR SYSTEM IS RIFE WITH INTRIGUE. Mark that shit down. Oh, the Kupier Belt, boring? Oh, the Oort Cloud, boring? Oh Jupiter, big whup?! YOU DON’T EVEN FUCKING KNOW. (Also, just ignore all qualifiers in the article. Like “probably” and “might” and especially the “more likely” — they will harsh your excitement.)
NASA thinking about deep-sleep option for Mars crew
Goddamn! Sign me the fuck for going to Bradbury’s Bastion. Apparently NASA is thinking about a deep-sleep option for the crew heading to Mars. Which frankly is probably nothing. ‘Cause like I’m sure they’re thinking about a lot of options. But still. I’m going to pretend it’s happening. Always wanted to be on that cryo-sleep tip.
MIT developing “Second Skin” spacesuit. Make mine ‘Mass Effect’
Can I get a fuck yeah? Forget those giant, clunky goddamn space-suits that have come to dominate interplanteary iconography. I demand tight, sleek space-suits that make me feel like I’m running around in Mass Effect. MIT got me. Got me good.
Check It. First color photo of Mars from India’s Orbiter
India’s Mars Orbiter is currently chilling, safely orbiting the Red Planet. Traveling the cosmic highways is done! Which means that it’s time to get the fuck down with the dirty stuff. Like sending us back gorgeous pictures.
Science-Wizards find water clouds outside the solar system for first time
Chalk this up as one of the many, many things I did not know about in this Universe. Apparently water clouds are rare as fuck on planets. Even within our solar system. But Astronomer-Shaman have found some outside the solar system. For the first time!
