Solar System Fossils Found By Hubble
segment writes "Astronomers using NASA's Hubble Space Telescope have discovered three of the faintest and smallest objects ever detected beyond Neptune. Each lump of ice and rock is roughly the size of Philadelphia and orbits just beyond Neptune and Pluto, where they may have rested since the formation of the solar system 4.5 billion years ago. The objects reside in a ring-shaped region called the Kuiper Belt, which houses a swarm of icy rocks that are leftover building blocks, or "planetesimals," from the solar system's creation. The results of the search were announced by a group led by Gary Bernstein of the University of Pennsylvania at a meeting of NASA's Division of Planetary Sciences in Monterey, Calif."
"Accountants using CPA's Crazy Business Practices Detector have discovered the faintest and smallest object ever detected in the business world. The object in question is the human brain a size of a walnut. The brain was discovered in SCO's CEO Darl McBride's head. According to industry sources, formation of a disease known as "business insanity" has decreased Darl's brain mass by up to 95% in the last few months, possibly as a result of SCO's IBM lawsuit. The results of the search were announced by a group led by Gary Bernstein of the University of Pennsylvania at a meeting of CPA's Division of Business Ethics in Monterey, Calif."
