Great News, 19 November 2010

My sincere apologies for the missed posting last week. I don't know what happened exactly. To make up for it, here is some really exciting (some may say GREAT) news for you:

1. An exoplanet (a planet that orbits another star) was discovered, and it is from a DIFFERENT GALAXY: Found: An Exoplanet From Another Galaxy
2. Microbiology is cool, just ask researchers from Integrated Ocean Drilling Programme. They found bacteria capable of surviving in the most extreme environments in the deepest part of the earth's crust: Life Found in the Deepest, Unexplored Layer of the Earth’s Crust
3. Who doesn't love a good square dance? How about square dancing fun with an educational element? Here is some Friday fun for you.
4. How could I end the week without at least mentioning the royal engagement? Yahoo.

Now go have a great weekend.
