There’s barely a page without a surprising fact…whether it’s about a vacuum flask, a hawk or a bilberry. […] Begin the book as you would a moorland walk, happy to put the route map away and just follow where the sheep trods take you—then you’ll likely find the surprising turns and unexpected views a suitable reward.
—Nick Small, Caught by the River

This version has no atmosphere!
Oh come on, someone had to say it!
I does rather lack the gravity of the original!
With all this excitement over Hadfield & the ISS (which I applaud) I think someone should point out that much much further away, there is a little-remembered rover called Opportunity hard at work nine years into it's 90-day mission, and still making some of its most important discoveries: http://marsrover.nasa.gov/mission/status_opportunityAll.html#sol3303
Don't forget our poor little martian.
This is of no relevance to the previous comments - but is a test to se whether (after months out of the game) I'm now able once again to contribute to the joyous stream of nonsense that is Gruts...
It looks as if you are, Zim. Welcome back!
I'm back in the game! Let joy be unconfined!
