While we’re here blogging our little hearts away at the 211th meeting of the American Astronomical Society, Steinn Sigurdsson is back at home herding all the dynamic news cats we left behind. This week he’s the lucky host for the 36th Carnival of Space, and has pulled together a compelling list of interesting stories for your reading pleasure.
Get the scoop on India’s space plans, read reviews of 200 lunar exploration stories, and see what the quadrantids looked like out the window of an airplane.
Click here to visit the Carnival of Space #36.
And if you’re interested in looking back, here’s an archive to all the past carnivals of space. If you’ve got a space-related blog, you should really join the carnival. Just email an entry to carnivalofspace@gmail.com, and the next host will link to it. It will help get awareness out there about your writing, help you meet others in the space community – and community is what blogging is all about. And if you really want to help out, let me know if you can be a host, and I’ll schedule you into the calendar.
Finally, if you run a space-related blog, please post a link to the carnival of space. Help us get the word out.
