I mentioned last week that Pamela and Rebecca are blogging from the Lunar and Planetary conference in Texas right now… but of course Emily is there as well, and has some follow-up news about Mercury, with a promise of more to come.
There’s going to be lots of cool news from the conference, so do what I do: subscribe to the RSS feeds for those folks, and get your news directly and rapidly.
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."
