San Diego Comic-Con starts this week, but it’s not the only thing happening of interest to nerds. Click for news (and signals) from space, an update on the prehistoric Tyrannosaur, and modern tech used to save a turtle’s life.
Elon Musk has abandoned plans to land Dragon Capsules on Mars, but he still plans to send people there some day. In the meantime, he hopes to use his tech to get people back to the moon and living with that Harsh Mistress.
NASA’s Juno has given us some great shots of Jupiter’s great red storm.
The Aricebo Observatory has detected strange signals from a dwarf star.
Apparently, Tyrannosaurus Rex wasn’t nearly the runner we like to imagine.
A sea turtle has been saved with a 3-D printed shell:
Is it just me or does “strange signals from a dwarf star” not actually link to anything? I found this story at Scientific American, but I don’t know what was intended.
Nope, it’s not just you. Looking at the source there’s a typo in the HTML tag – “hrf” instead of “href” – but the intended link is the one you linked at Scientific American.
Fixed. JD will receive his “correction” shortly.
I was under the influence of signals from a dwarf star!
Seriously, at least the mistake got you guys to comment on a Newspace post. I always wonder if anyone bothers to read’em.
I do, but I don’t always have something to say.
Most times when I comment it is the last comment and no one responds.
I’m not sure what to say to that.
If science won’t save the wee turtles, who will?
