Space: Who Knew, Introduction

Introduction

So I've decided to start another blog tradition, and that is whenever I find out neat and interesting things about space/astronomy I'm going to post them here.

Since November of last year I've been hard at work doing research on our solar system, its led me to some very interesting finds. As I'm absolutely no good with remembering exact details when I try to talk about this stuff- it all comes out in abstracts and in many cases with some rather mis-spoken facts.

Hopefully these compilations will help curb that!
