I am in a hotel room in Vancouver, BC, writing this mere hours before embarking on a cruise ship bound for Alaska. On that ship will be James Randi and many dozens of skeptics, and we’re planning on having a vacation beyond belief (hahahahahahaha).
During this time I’m not sure how good my intertubes connection will be, but I’ll post what and when I can. I plan on taking lots of pictures and maybe even some video, so stick around I’ll share as much of this fantastic experience as I’m able.
If you went to BadAstronomy.com and found yourself here, never fear: the BA Blog has moved to its new home at Discover Blogs. The original BA site (with the Moon Hoax debunking and all that) is still online, too.
Phil Plait, the creator of Bad Astronomy, is an astronomer, lecturer, and author. After ten years working on Hubble Space Telescope and six more working on astronomy education, he struck out on his own as a writer. He has written two books, dozens of magazine articles, and 12 bazillion blog articles. He is a skeptic, and fights misuses of science as well as praising the wonder of real science.

"Reading this book is like getting punched in the face by Carl Sagan. Frightening, but oddly exhilarating."
