It's been a long time since I read William Rivers Pitt, and I'd forgotten how impassioned and powerful his writing is. Be warned, not for the faint of heart, but absolutely true.
Pluto was still classified as a planet when the probe left Earth. Now we have the binary dwarf-planet system of Pluto and Charon.
This deserves to be well noted:
"'We have completed the initial reconnaissance of the Solar System, an endeavour started under President Kennedy more than 50 years ago and continuing to today under President Obama,' said the mission's chief scientist Alan Stern."
Finished The Witches and my quiz derived from it went up. Now going to look for Lorna Doon which I heard on the BBC years ago but haven't actually read.
Oh, lovely photos!
