Universe Today
I wanted to take a moment and point your browsers at a few websites that I really enjoy, and I think you will too. You've probably heard of the
Bad Astronomer
, but do you know of the
Angry Astronomer
? Jon Voisey is an astronomy major at the University of Kansas. Jon has recently been journaling the battle against intelligent design and antiscience movements, but if you dig a little deeper into his archives, you'll see some great articles explaining concepts in astronomy.
A second site I really enjoy is called
Centauri Dreams
, written by Paul Gilster. Paul is the author of the similarly named book, which
we reviewed here
on Universe Today. Paul's website supports his investigation into concepts for interstellar travel - realistic ways that we could actually get spacecraft from here to neighbouring stars. Roll through the archive, it's absolutely fascinating reading.
