100,000 Stars is a new experiment for Chrome web browsers (or any other WebGL browser like Firefox or Safari) that lets you interactively explore the Milky Way galaxy with your mouse and scroll wheel. It's gorgeous and well worth exploring.
Phwoar, that's quite sexual. If only it covered the entire Milky Way, with over 100 billion+ stars!
^ Yep awesome. Have you seen this? I wish I could do sound for these projects 
'Petri Nets, Discrete Physics, and Distributed Quantum Computation'-
Samson Abramsky
Oxford University Computing Laboratory
Abstract. We shall describe connections between Petri nets, quantum physics and category theory. The view of Net theory as a kind of discrete physics has been consistently emphasized by Carl-Adam Petri. The con- nections between Petri nets and monoidal categories were illuminated in pioneering work by Ugo Montanari and Jose Meseguer. Recent work by the author and Bob Coecke has shown how monoidal categories with certain additional structure (dagger compactness) can be used as the set- ting for an effective axiomatization of quantum mechanics, with striking applications to quantum information. This additional structure matches the extension of the Montanari-Meseguer approach by Marti-Oliet and Meseguer, motivated by linear logic.
To a large extent, and by design, Net Theory can be seen as a kind of discrete physics: lines are time-like causal flows, cuts are space-like regions, process unfoldings of a marked net are like the solution trajectories of a differential equation.

| Galaxies come in all shapes and sizes: from those with compact fuzzy bulges or central bars to galaxies with winding spiral arms. Astronomer Edwin Hubble classified these different breeds of galaxies by means of a diagram known as the Hubble Tuning Fork. Click picture for interactive link The tuning fork shape presents elliptical galaxies along the handle, and two different populations of spiral galaxies on the fork�s �prongs� to differentiate between spiral galaxies with a central bar, and those without. The diagram also describes the shape of the galaxies. Elliptical galaxies are positioned further along the handle towards the fork depending on how elongated they appear, while spiral galaxies are organised by how tightly wound their arms are. Of course, there are always exceptions, and a separate class of �irregular� galaxies conforms to neither group, perhaps as a result of a collision or merging event disrupting their shape. In this interactive tuning fork diagram, 61 nearby galaxies studied by ESA�s Herschel and NASA�s Spitzer space telescopes are presented. The galaxies are located 10�100 million light-years from Earth and were surveyed as part of two programmes: the Key Insights on Nearby Galaxies: a Far-Infrared Survey with Herschel (Kingfish) and the Spitzer Infrared Nearby Galaxies Survey. |

Bioengineered Nano-Jellyfish Captures Cancer Cells in the Bloodstream
The device is actually a microfluidic chip that�s been coated with long strands of DNA, which dangle down into the bloodstream and bind to any cancerous proteins floating past � directly imitating the way a jellyfish scoops up grub in the ocean.
If required, the chip can release these cells unharmed for later inspection. According to the chip�s designers at Boston�s Brigham and Women�s Hospital, the catch-and-release mechanism can be put to both diagnostic and therapeutic use in the fight against Big C, and can also be used to isolate good things, like fetal cells. The next step will be to test the device on human.

NEWSFLASH! - European Space Agency people gather in Italy to decide on the future of Europe's space shit, around a giant swimming pool.
I also love how most people are just listening to some tunes on their iPods.
... and no, I wont post a lower resolution picture. Deal with it.
Lol, you said space shit.

I wonder if shit floats around in your body in zero-G. Obviously the intestines are quite constrictive, so it's probably not going to float up into your stomach and right out of your throat, but who knows? Maybe space morning breath is extra bad.
