Carnival Of The Space Geeks (43rd Edition)

Ethan Siegel hosted the 43^rd carnival of space over at Starts With A Bang! which featured over 20 excellent posts with an Oscar theme twist.

Entertaining articles included solar flares, finding exo-solar rocky worlds, a man who wants to fund his own lunar trip and a play about Galileo and his daughter?

A few interesting articles that stood out were:

• Brian Wang of Next Big Future highlights lunar trucks and mining rovers that NASA may be considering (note: I guess gold is the new black).
• The Fool over at New Frontiers has an update about Spaceport America, which will probably attract thousands just from the look alone.
• Shrubber (the NewSpace’s favorite skeptic) is painting another scary image of NASA. Hopefully the problem is not as serious as it seems, as it could easily result in the death of human space flight, especially if Obama becomes president.
• Pamela and Fraser discuss over at Astronomy Cast where the center of the Universe is located, which may disappoint some politicians (in both parties).

Next weeks Carnival of Space is quickly coming up, and if would like to see your article highlighted across the blogosphere (or at least within the space community) then you might want to check out Universe Today for details on how you can join in on the fun.
