Planck Satellite Reveals Star Formation Processes
An anonymous reader writes "New images from the Planck Space Observatory reveal the gas and dust between the stars and isolate the physical processes at work in our galaxy. The new images are an eye-catching by-product of a spacecraft designed to look back at the earliest light in the universe. ... When observed at much longer wavelengths, where the cosmic microwave background can be seen, the picture is very different, as clearly demonstrated in new images from ESA's Planck mission. The dust is no longer a dark shroud, but shines out in its own right, and new aspects of our galaxy are revealed."
Pretty well so far.
Hmph. By whose standards of measurement? By my estimation, any universe in which I don’t have a smoking-hot girlfriend and a fancy car is pretty much a failure as far as universes go.

Just walk the Planck
I don't know about that - seems more like it will be used to predict a Dancing with the Stars winner.
2) I regret that I will not live long enough to see faster then light travel. Perhaps my son will see it.
