My Outer Space: Sasquatch On Mars, Spider on Mercury, Satellite Falling From The Sky, Across The Universe, Across The Universe..

It's not as silly as the last reported life on Mars photo the legendary Medusa Face, that was seen by Earthlings everywhere thanks to an orbiting  satellite that photographed what appeared to be a face but actually was an optical illusion caused by light reflections but this action photo taken by one of those rover robots seems to be showing a sasquatch, big foot,  or what ever you want to call them hanging out on the red planet, it might explain where they hide since nobody seems to be able to find them here.  Check it out at www.telegraph.co.uk...

As was mentioned last week Messenger did a fly-by Mercury last week only 124 miles away and took over 1,200 pictures, one that included what looks like an enormous spider.  This according to  Loise Prockter, a scientist at John Hopkins University's lab in Laurel, Maryland, that built and operates Messenger.  What it appears to be is an impact crater from an asteroid about 25 miles in diameter with over 100 flat-bottomed troughs that shoot out in all directions looking like spider legs.  Nobody seems to know how these "legs" were created and nothing like it has ever been seen like it on any other planet.  All arachnophobes beware...

Don't look up now but a large spy satellite, very large  indeed, approx. 13-16 feet across and weighing over 10,000 pounds is hurdling toward us and it looks like it will hit earth at the end of February or beginning of March.  Nobody seems to be sure where will it will land but to add insult to injury it contains a toxic chemical, hydrazine, which is a type of rocket fuel.   The spy satellite has been a failure from the beginning, rendered powerless because of computer malfunctiond, it has never worked since it was sent up in 2006.  The big problem is that nobody knows where it will end up until it enters the atmosphere and then there will be only be a thirty minute window of opportunity to know where it will strike earth.  Not that this hasn't happened before, in 50 years of monitoring about 17,000 man-made objects have reentered the earth's atmosphere...

And finally, Across The Universe, by which this blog was once named and a famous Beatles song will be sent,  Across The Universe on Monday at 7pm by NASA, none the less.   The song will be beamed by NASA's Deep Space Network of antennas at the North Star, Polaris, which is 431 light years away.  The transmission marks the 40th anniversary of the the song not to mention the 50th anniversary of both NASA and its first satellite, Explorer 1, and the 45th birthday of  the Deep Space Network.  Paul McCartney sent a message to NASA, "Send my love to the aliens.  All the best, Paul." ...
