Was I expecting too much? I thought there would be a viper option.

One American astronaut and one Russian cosmonaut will blast off to the ISS in the spring of 2015 for a one-year mission, about double the time astronauts spend on the station right now. Participants in the mission will join an elite club of humans with that much time in space, and it's all part of an experimental mission to test astronaut endurance for the future of human exploration.

Why?

Quote:

Over the last 12 years scientists have learned a great deal about how spaceflight affects human vision, bone density, muscle mass and more, all thanks to lengthy stays on board the ISS. But now it's time to up the ante. Based on some plans, a flight to Mars and back will take about two years, so it's about time we start pushing the endurance envelope if we want to make it to the Red Planet within the next 20 years.

So it's all about getting to Mars, huh?

SpaceX's Dragon, the private space capsule, launched the other day and is headed for a Wednesday meeting with the International Space Station.

Air Force flying saucer plans

Quote:

The National Declassification Center (part of the National Archives) has just released documents from a 1956-57 Air Force venture known as "Project 1794," which was basically a government plan to build a flying saucer. It sounds crazy, but excerpts from the official reports generated by the project show that Air Force researchers really believed they could pull it off.

Quote:

"It is concluded that the stabilization and control of the aircraft in the manner proposed -- the propulsive jets are used to control the aircraft -- is feasible and the aircraft can be designed to have satisfactory handling through the whole flight range from ground cushion takeoff to supersonic flight at very high altitude."

So... what do I do with this information?

We've seen a lot of incredible planet discoveries over the years, but this one's definitely among the coolest. It's a planet roughly the size of Neptune, but what makes it unique is the number of suns nearby, so many that the gravitational pull should destroy it.

Dubbed PH1 in honor of Planet Hunters, the planet is believed to be a gas giant like Jupiter, Saturn and Neptune.

Quote:

The four stars near PH1 include two suns that the planet orbits and two other suns that orbit the planet. It's a complicated collection of solar bodies, and with so many different gravitational pulls swirling around PH1 that scientists are still amazed the planet exists at all.
