Are you ready to celebrate?

I don't know what's more awesome: the fact that the Phoenix rover found water ice on Mars, or that it has its own Twitter page to keep those of us stuck on Earth up-to-date.

Of course, naming a trench "Dodo-Goldilocks" is pretty cool, too.

Red Rover

So now NASA's discovered evidence of water on Mars. Between that and the "Goldilocks" planet, I hope we're not headed for a real-life reenactment of Mission to Mars. Mainly because that movie sucked. Except for that part at the end, when a fellow audience member yelled out, "Spoon!" - that was actually pretty funny...

The Goldilocks Planet

Scientists have discovered a new planet that could possibly support life, It's outside of our solar system, might actually be a giant ball of ice, and has a red dwarf sun, but hey! It's still a pretty discovery. As long as we don't try to colonize it or (God forbid) send missionaries. Oops. That was inappropriate.
