I don’t usually blog about science – or news for that matter – but this article is quite exciting, so I thought I’d share it: NASA Telescope Confirms Alien Planet in Habitable Zone – Yahoo! News.
Yes, that’s right – NASA have found a planet very much like our own, where the average surface temperature is in the correct range to find liquid water, and where alien life could potentially be found.

And because I am a geek, I think this is awesome.
Yay science!
Also, apologies for the lack of proper updates this week – I’ve turned out to be busier than anticipated. Will endeavour to get better at posting regularly again, as I’ve been a touch on the slap-dash side lately.
