Plenty of good coverage over at the NASA site.
As NASA prepares for Curiosity rover landing on Mars, William Shatner shares this thrilling story of NASA’s hardest planetary science mission to date. The video titled, “Grand Entrance,” guides viewers from entry through descent, and after landing.

He describes scholars such as Dr Giberson as “wolves in sheep’s clothing”. He said: “They are undermining the gospel. If Adam and Eve aren’t literal, Christianity is totally meaningless. You might as well throw the Bible away.”

Some rare, very interesting and occasionally disturbing images from WW2…
This series of entries will last from June 19 until October 30, 2011, running every Sunday morning for 20 weeks. In these photo essays, I hope to explore the events of the war, the people involved at the front and back home, and the effects the war had on everyday lives. The entries will follow a roughly chronological sequence, with some broader themes (such as “The Home Front”) interspersed throughout. These images will give us glimpses into the real-life experiences of our parents, grandparents and great grandparents, moments that shaped the world as it is today. I hope to be able to do justice to this important story in this large-photo narrative format and invite you to join me for the next 20 Sundays.
I want one of these >:)
