Carnival of Space #209

With space bloggers scattered around the globe, the 209th edi­tion of Car­ni­val of Space provides some­thing a lit­tle dif­fer­ent: John Williams from Starry Critters hosts this week and uses his TerraZoom know-how to create a Google Maps car­ni­val, where you can click on a marker and space news will appear. Check it out at Starry Critters!

And if you’re interested in looking back, here’s an archive to all the past Carnivals of Space. If you’ve got a space-related blog, you should really join the Carnival. Just email an entry to carnivalofspace@gmail.com, and the next host will link to it. It will help get awareness out there about your writing, help you meet others in the space community – and community is what blogging is all about. And if you really want to help out, sign up to be a host. Send an email to the above address.
