POPS Are Planets 'Living Super-Organisms'? more (at source): He wants to find out if the continents will merge again in 250 million years to form a single super-continent; how meteorites change the chemical composition of the Earth; and what the connection is between the temperature of a planet and its magnetic field, which protects plants and animals from being bombarded with cosmic radiation, which in turn influences the rate of mutations and thus the development of new forms of life.

POPSEureka!!! 1908 Tunguska Event Caused by Comet ( photos & video ) An Explosion 1000 times greater than Hiroshima, to find out the amazing story of how the mystery was solved, go to http://www.universetoday.com/2009/06/24/1908-tunguska-event-caused-by-comet-new-research-says/ "As the sun rose on the 30th June 1908 in Central Siberia, it was drowned out by a bright light streaking across the sky. Moments later, the atmosphere was reeling from an almighty explosion that, according to eye witness reports, sounded a lot like persistent artillery fire. However, the Earth was not under attack from UFOs, as one popular theory insisted, neither had a black hole just passed through the Earth or antimatter been annihilated as equally popular hypotheses suggested, but instead the natives of the remote Tunguska region had just experienced the most powerful impact event in recent history." The Earth had been hit by a Comet.

POPSVatican’s Celestial Eye, Seeking Not Angels but Data In the Vatican Observatory’s annual report, at the point where a corporation might describe its business strategy, is a section delineating the difference between creatio ex nihilo (creation from nothing) and creatio continua: “the fact that at every instant, the continued existence of the universe itself is deliberately willed by God, who in this way is continually causing the universe to remain created.”

POPS"The Universe In Your Head" more (at source): Other physicists, however, point out that Lanza's view is fully in line with the perspective from quantum mechanics that the observer plays a huge role in how reality is observed. "So what Lanza says in this book is not new," Richard Conn Henry, a physics and astronomy professor at Johns Hopkins University, said in a book review. "Then why does Robert have to say it at all? It is because we, the physicists, do not say it - or if we do say it, we only whisper it, and in private - furiously blushing as we mouth the words. True, yes; politically correct, hell no!"

POPSFirst extra-galactic planet spotted in Andromeda The advantage of microlensing is that it works best for more distant objects so it's ideal for planet hunting in other galaxies. In theory, it should be possible to see Earth-sized objects in this way. The disadvantage is that microlensing is a relatively rapid, one-off event that lasts a few days at most. That makes observations difficult to verify. And today a new analysis from Ingrosso and co shows that this companion has a mass about 6 times that of Jupiter. That's heading into brown dwarf territory but it's also well within planetary territory too.
