Title: Asteroids
Post by: Snowcrash on August 27, 2010, 23:11:48 PM
Found this cool video of asteroids found between 1980 and 2010.



How much stuff is there left to find?

Click the Bad Astronomy (http://blogs.discovermagazine.com/badastronomy/2010/08/27/30-years-a-half-million-asteroids/#more-20249) site for more info.

So there's more than a couple then :o

Can't really see the detail unless you view it in 720, but don't get sound unless in 480, odd, or is it just me.  ::)

It has sound?

In case you haven't read the BA blog, on this scale the sun would be about 1 pixel and the asteroids would be so small as to be invisible.

Space is big, I mean really big. You may think it's a long way to the shops and back but that pales into insignificance when compared to space. (DNA)
They don't call it space for nothing.

When I looked at this video last night I only had sound when in 480, but today, after a reboot, all reses have sound, odd.

Interesting.
