sciency stuff

Last Thursday, an occultation occurred between the moon and Jupiter. Jupiter is that tiny little spec in the pictures below. I was expecting something cool to happen, but it was just a tiny white spec dissappearing behind the moon. Pfft, I'm stupid.





I just discovered google maps. You can fuckin look at satellite photos which cover the entire world. Holy crap. It's so detailed, you can see cars on the street. I've located my house, The University of Queensland, Lang Park, Statue of Liberty, where the World Trade Centre towers were, the landscape in Iceland used in the Bjork film clip for Joga, and Wimbledon. You can zoom in on everything except Antartica. I'm sure you can't look at certain bits though. Like Area 51, or anything Military-ish.

Well I must study for my last exam on Thursday. Hurrah!
